    That is great information. Thank you. One thing. How much did the whole TSR deal cost? I'll do what it takes, but I was just curious. Thanks again. Clint D-24352

    Hey, How much did the whole Texas State Record Cost? Specifically the jumps and registration fees. How many days was it? Clint

    Who should I talk to in Texas to get information on getting on the next state record? Larry Henderson and Larry Hinson come to mind, but who else? Also, give me some pointers on getting on a State Record. What are the do's and dont's? What are the steps in the process? Thanks for any info in advance. Clint D-24352

    Dude that is awesome for having 327 jumps. I actually live in Texas and would love to get on some bigger ways and even records. I have jumped with Larry Henderson before, but I need to get out there and jump with more of the guys in charge. Any other suggestions from anyone? I am in college, but I am totally into RW and Big Ways. All help is appreciated. Clint D-24352

    Where is the all pink option??? Everyone should have at least one pink parachute in their lifetime for other people to laugh at. I mean, I didn't have one and never will, but you should try it. Chicks dig pink.

    I'm not saying you are wrong or not because I wasn't there, but are you sure that it was actually a Team Extreme team member that was giving your friend shit??? I know that they have a lot of people that hang around them so I was just wondering. Team Extreme consists of 4 people. There groupies are another thing. I also wanted to say that I was at this last convention when a couple members of Team Extreme were there and I must say that they were awesome to everyone. They were constantly being bothered to get a picture, autograph, or just to talk, and they were really professional. Just curious to see if it was an actual Team Extreme guy or not. Clint

    Early on in this thread I was thinking that I would take it as low as it takes for a friend or family member to live. Then I thought well, my cypres firing will be my limit, but in all actuality, I don't feel very good about my cypres firing while I am head down. That is almost as stupid as taking it all the way. So, I will say this. I would take it low to around 1500' and then get flat and pull my reserve. I have confidence that I could catch someone who is unconscious, but I am not going to kill myself over it. If someone is going to get knocked out on a skydive it will most likely happen between exit and breakoff. I don't know about others, but my breakoff is usually 4000 so that would give me more time than the 9 seconds in other posts. I plan on trying to catch the dummy jumper some day just to see.

    I knew a guy that had old backpack shoulder straps sewn onto his legstraps. It made the thing way more comfortable for him and wasn't at all noticeable. Clint

    Oh, It just says on USPA.org that the competitor cannot be more than 24 years of age at the time of competition. I thought he fit into that because he is 24+, but I wasn't sure if he will have been in the sport for 5 years at the time of compettition. I was just making sure that this was known so it could help him decide. Clint

    I am proud to show you this because it happened at in my hometown of El Paso at one of the bridges. Those Border Patrol and Custom guys are on top of there shit. Enjoy. Clint D-24352 PS. This really happened. The dumbshit disguised himself as the seat.
  12. Jethers203
    Well, unless collegiates is before you will have been in the sport for 5 years then you can still compete. If it is after and because you are 24 years of age as well as having over 1,000 jumps, you will be ineligible for the competition. I am just saying this in case you didn't already know so maybe it will help you make up your mind. Clint D-24352 PS. Are you a full time student (12 hours or more)? I thought you graduated.

    It was too cold at the WFFC for those nips to not be hard. You had to of gotten those pics somewhere else. Clint

    I liked it a lot and would love for my home DZ of 2 182's to get one. About how much does one of those cost??? Clint D-24352

    Favorite part was my 6 point 12 Way with Roger Ponce. That jump was damn near perfect. I also liked the great RW jumps I did with Lemonhead and meeting more famous skydiving people like Luigi Cani, J.C. Colclasure, Norman Kent, and others. The Wet T Shirt contest was off the hook and I had a blast at all the parties and learned a lot at the seminars. Can't wait for WFFC 2005!!!!! Clint D-24352

    So, someone really landed a birdman suit???? If this is true, please tell how and post video. This sounds like bullshit.

    Texel is really nice. When I was there they had a Caravan and an Antonov AN-2 (or something), It is a big ass bi-plane, and they had a Let 410 I think.. The people are nice and I am sure you will have fun. Clint D-24352

    Great, that is exactly what I needed to know. See you all at the convention. Clint

    So, I am looking at $100.00 the first jump with an instructor, class, rental, and 2 slots??? After the first jump, do I need to jump with an instructor??? If I don't need an instructor after the first jump, would the price only be $30.00 per jump ($10 for suit rental and $20 for my slot)??? Thanks for the information. Clint

    Will there be BIRDMAN coaches and rentals at the WFFC??? I would like to try some birdman jumps and I was just wondering what would be available at the WFFC. If it is available, who do I talk to and what does it cost? Thanks for all the info. Clint

    Who's Going To The WFFC From The Houston Area????? I will be there and I was wondering who else will be attending. My buddy just dropped out of the deal, so I am interested in linking up with some folks up there. So, who is going??? Clint D-24352

    Ok, that information is helpful. Thanks. Now, what about when I'm filming something far away? Today after landing, I was filming another jumper land and I was aiming to low. He was about 50 ft away and I didn't even have his canopy in frame. The site is dead on when I am filming, but at further distances it is off. Any help would be appreciated. Clint

    How close should the site be to your eye??? I just top mounted my pc-105 onto my Optik and got a site extender as well as a site. I was just curious as to how far from the eye the site should be. Thanks for all the help. Clint
  24. Jethers203
    Any possible way I could see a picture?? It would really help. I just don't want to make any unnecessary holes in the helmet. Thanks. Clint
  25. Jethers203
    Does anyone have pictures of an Optik with a site extender, swivel clamp, and site????? I just ordered the site setup and I wanted to see how other people have them setup on the helmet. If you don't have pictures, can you describe the best place for the site extender???? All help would be greatly appreciated. Clint D-24352
