  1. depends on what your relationship is with the instructor, imo. If youre the DZO and its hurting your business more than its helping it, fire him. Plain and simple. Give him whatever reason you want to. If youre just his bud and you think its sorta whack, it may be acceptable to ask him why he feels the need to hit on paying customers, and then point out the fact that its hurting the DZ he works for. Or just let the dude get some, whatever. --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...
  2. [QUOTE]I dont know where Ill end up...cept IN THE GROUND.[/QUOTE] No ashes sprinkled out in the sky? At least get them to burn like your leg or arm or something so your buddies can sprinkle that shit out from a spent smoke canister at 14k... --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...
  3. I'm the same way bro, I need a few years of exploring the left coast before I'll resettle back down here in NC. --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...
  4. eastern, baby. Our side is better, although I like visiting the other side occasionally. --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...
  5. I'm pretty sure thats enough for me as an inexperienced canopy pilot to steer clear of Xbraced for the next 1k jumps or so. The (relative) short recovery arc that 9 cells gives you a safer swooping canopy to learn on. Correct? True, they don't swoop as long, but you're learning. IMO, you dont need a better reason than its easier to kill yourself on a Xbraced canopy bc of the long recovery arc (meaning it wants to stay in that front riser dive). Death is a pretty major negative, it should play some part in your deciding what canopy you want. Shouldnt it? Am I correct on my reasoning? --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...

    2 way exits?

    you've got a point. Not to mention swooping is fun as shit. I was just thinking of linked exits if Im with another inexperienced jumper. I don't want to waste 4-5k just linking up, hehe. --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...
  12. ah ok, I was thinking I would wear it under my jumpsuit. Any reason why you like it over? --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...
  13. that sucks man, hopefully someone will be able to help you with some tips/tricks etc. If not tell us what PD says to you/how they deal with the situation. Good luck! --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...
  14. I havn't jumped it yet but for whats its worth I will be jumping an OLD vector 2. Pros - price. Cons - you get what you pay for! I'll have to buy another rig when I start freeflying. --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...

  16. good job on that first level! Don't worry I think its common to "zone out". I did on my first jump! Whew, good times, though! Just relax and have fun with it. --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...

  23. good job brother. --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...
  24. uh, BEER!! Thanks for the advice. Yeah someone at my DZ said belts are more efficient than vests. I'm going to experiment with the ankle weight thing this week sometime so that next weekend I can jump my new rig and a new weight belt for the first time. --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...
  25. VIBES IN MASS QUANTITIES. I don't want to see another of our family go down. Please be strong, Eric. I am pulling for you. I don't normally say this, but god bless. --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...
