Way to GO Merrick!! Sorry to hear about the break! Get well soon, and just to make you feel better, I'm off out on my little brother's CR125 for a couple of hours out in the backwoods! Ben.

Remi, Is this the way you were taught how to skydive? Hmm, things are starting to make a LOT more sense... B.
-
Hmm, Remi, I think you definately have a point there!! B.
-
Omri, Is this your very own, pet camel? You've only got the one? I'd have thought you would have a whole flock/herd of them! B.
-
Eeuuuww, That really does look painful - Girls doing naked jumps will probably want them rubbed better afterwards.... B.
-
Spectre, What is involved in a base pack job? How was the opening with this type of pack?? B.
-
Clay, Why don't you name that movie? I don't have a clue. B.
-
Aaggghhh, this is getting boring. I'll stop now.
-
No way Sireee!
-
Most definately not....
-
AHA!! Spectre, you're doing this the FFF way! You won't catch me doing that.... B.
-
Stevie, I'm pretty sure there'll be a few of us wanting to come down! Me included! Are you gonna be working out there or just using it as a base? B.
-
I'm stoopid too, coz I could only add people when I sent them a PM! That's two of us in need of help! B.
-
Have you been on that loopy juice again??? Or has Drakzone taken control of the keyboard?? When are you gonna get yourself back up to the DZ? B.
-
Aaarrgghhh! BUMMER!! Poor Merrick. Oh well, that left him free to drink beer then.... We're Pammi & Sis having better luck? B.
-
Hmm, PhreeZone, you aren't really asking for much are you hey??? Oh, yeah, there's no money in my wallet - I DO have some jump tickets though! B.
-
Girls almost get arrested for a bikini contest??? Man, America is so NOT the place to be these days! Did Sis run around naked as promised??? B.
-
FFF, You've obviously not seen Skreamer trying to pack on a windy day - if you had, you'd know that there isn't a lot he can hold down... You really wanna let him try to hold things down around here????!!! Aaarrghhh.... We're lost.
-
Kris, Where'd you get the info from? Pammi, Merrick, Sis, let us know what's going on as soon as you get back! I hope you're wrong! B.

MM, You have a very short sighted view there... So, here I am with almost 200 jumps, the guys who were doing AFF while I was doing static line got 9 freefall jumps in while I was on the rope. That makes about 10 - 14 mins more when you take into account building up freefall time with increasing length delays. Compared to them I have about the same amount of freefall time now, within a minute or two. The difference is really very minimal. You'll see a bigger difference in freefall time if you compare FF and RW jumpers (10-20 seconds less per jump!). Do you really think that a couple of minutes at the start of your skydiving career is going to make a difference??? I agree with DZBone on this one - If someone is happy on static line, they aren't going to be particularly disadvantaged (unless they have a problem where in-air instruction will help). B.
-
WOAH!!! Have you're partner pack your RESERVE??? Not for me thanks! If so, just make sure you don't get into an argument about their family the night before a repack... B.

Skydekker, Don't let the AFF guys put you off S/L. It CAN be done in a short period, just like AFF. I took 8 days to get from 1st jump to Cat8 and A license (UK) - If you get good weather, take a week off and get to the DZ. Cost me a whole hoot less doing it the S/L route (about 1/2 price....). Enjoy it! B.

Hey Sangiro! Nice pics Dude! What camera and film do you use? I'm just getting more into this photo stuff and as you seem to be producing some pretty fine pics, I'll ask you too! Keep 'em coming! B.
