Mary, I agree with you that it makes a HUGE difference with proper fit, when the clothing is made from women and for women, especially with odd or curvy proportions/measurements. I did try on all the women's only sized clothing. I don't ever even touch the unisex stuff because I am way too small-boned (yet have curves) to have any luck with fit. Children's clothing just doesn't fit right, either, usually too loose or tight and wide & short in all the wrong places. I also wish that I was closer to Title 9, so I could see what you are talking about. I do trust your judgement, though, since you are a slender female who lives in the cold. (Thanks for all the advice!)

You are so wonderful, Conway.

I completely agree with your post! 4-way VRW would make me want to get into freeflying, also. Looking forward to seeing this become a reality! (HOW EXCITING!!!)

Lol...thanks Mar! That was fun, especially since I don't even know these people! Btw, Kristi said Moffett earlier. Mar, I was totally going to guess him, but thought that you were saying that it was not him. I had pictured him with those types of sandals and leg coloring/hairiness. (Btw, your toe nail polish in the pic is pretty!) Edited: In case you're wondering, I don't have amazing eyesight or anything, but I am now looking at your (bigger) boogie pics from Texas.

I was going to guess him (Tspillers) or Brains or IMGR2. Since I don't know any Texans, I am totally shooting in the dark.

Good, that one is difficult. Bwahahaha...my eyesight is not very good, and I'm not even wearing my eyeglasses. I like attention to detail, though. Hmmm...can you tell us which of the three that I named are correct?
-
Curses, foiled again! I honestly don't know anyone in Texas. Are these all well-known DZ.commers?
-
OK, I just now cheated a little by sneaking a peek at your boogie pics. Little Stranger was wearing jeans. She is at the top left.

I can hardly see this little picture. I have never met them, but are two of them Aggiedave (left) and Morgan (middle) with the foot on the bottom, middle being you? The one half foot sticking in from the top left, I cannot make out.

I will have to go back to REI and do that. Sadly, I think that I've tried on all their tights/leggings, (must have tried on the Under Armour) and all of them are too baggy and loose on me! I hope that this isn't truly the case, and that I have overlooked their smallest sizes. Btw, Darcy, I've missed you!
-
Hope you feel better soon, Dave. Right now, I can totally relate to being just out of the hospital and not being able to jump. (PM sent.) Take care, my friend.

Ugh...I am not going to Eloy or to any holiday boogie this year. Thank you for the offer, though. -
Thank you so much for posting the adorable pictures of your puppy! Happy holidays with your new baby!

I travel, my friend. Also, I'm a small girl with little body fat. I am always "cold". Nevertheless, it can get cold at altitude, anywhere. Besides, my gut feeling is that you must not have been in the tunnel in the wintertime or at night. (I have.) It can get REALLY cold in there.

That is EXACTLY why I love my Roxy rash guard. My boyfriend is a surfer, and he bought me mine for cold weather jumping per my request after trying many of them on last winter. I have to admit that not all of the rash guards fit the same way. From the ones that I tried on, the Roxy style and size that I have was the one that really felt like it fit the best on my particular body type. I love the extra layer of protection/warmth that this type of undergarment offers because I am a person who can NEVER keep warm. Imo, it's truly liberating to be able to wear less layers when active, as long as there is warm, all-over coverage as close as possible to the skin. Well, I think that I will have to go and try on all these styles and get back to you all. I was hoping to hear opinions from more people (esp. women) regarding the fit issues. Also, I already read all about the flattering fit of Under Armour in the Naughty Boogie thread, so I know that it should receive many gold stars in the looks dept. That is not my primary concern, though. Flyangel ~ Mary, thank you so much for the link! I will definitely check it out!

Premier Membership Launch - Winner of the Aerodyne System!

eply]The winner of the complete Aerodyne system from our Premier Membership draw is: Art Ullery (PalletMan) How wonderful for Art! Congratulations! -
I keep hearing about how great Under Armour is for warmth, and I am soooo tempted to buy from the website that AggieDave posted in THIS thread. I am forcing myself to STOP RIGHT NOW from "proceeding to checkout" with the XS Frosty tights and XS Sub-Zero Mock because I have never even tried them on. I haven't even been skydiving in forever either , but I am trying to get prepared for when I will be flying again in the cold. (I will hopefully be flying by the last weekend in January.) Also, I may be playing in snow soon, so I need warm undergarments for that. Can any ladies tell me how Under Amour really fit? Do they run small or something? Evelyn felt uncomfortable in the Under Amour and disliked the fit, according to her thread. Does anyone else feel the same way and why? Currently, I wear a winter rash guard from Roxy (surfwear/wetsuit manufacturer) because the fit is made for my curves, and it keeps me sooo warm. I wear Carushkka capri leggings for the same main reason (fit), but I could use a little more for leg warmth. Both my warmth and comfort are very important to me, so let me know what you all think, please. Thank you in advance!

I have flown in skyventure tunnels, and that doesn't seem neccessary at all. However, I am no "expert" or coach, so please take my comments with a grain of salt. Any air changes/variations during a tunnel flight or even within a skydive should be able to be (hopefully) easily countered by the flyers. We are always adapting to any variations within an actual skydive, anyway. You don't just fly to a slot/grip and stop flying your body once you get there. You are always flying your body. It's constant work and slight variations within the tunnel's atmosphere should be no-brainers. Sometimes, within tunnel 4-way, some of the flyers' even get close enough to the door to have a leg slip out a bit, but the group keeps flying, usually without any noticeable delays at all. Anyway, I personally do not notice when someone is in front of the door. I also do not feel that my flying suffers.

Perhaps just allowing friendships to occur and sorting through those friends whom you have chemistry with until you feel interested in a certain someone above the rest of your male friends. Then, proceeding from there by accepting invitations to dinners, movies, etc. Enjoy being single and spending time with various men as friends, and the offers will occur naturally. Someone will inevitably hit it off with you.

Ugh...does anyone know if it will be shown, again, or did anyone tape it? Is there any way to get a tape of it? Edited: Yes, I missed it and would love to see it. -
Good new, Tallguy! My boyfriend seems to be into that. Btw, are you aware that Jeannie is going to help to take care of all your spooning needs in Eloy? I do believe that she is Amazon enough to do it! Bwahahahaha...post pics, pretty please.

quote]I thought the movie was funny as hell but that's just me. The language was just so offensive to me. I still love you though, even if you like that dirty talk. Shannon is a very dirty girl, and she must be disciplined! Do you think that I should wash her mouth out with soap while we are in Vegas? (Maybe we can do that in between the pillow fights in our nighties, right Shannon? lmao!)

Umm...nice avatar, Mr. Frenchy!

Yes, Sunny's guy is HOT!!! (Flustered, again.)
