  1. I'll be there too. But I'll be chained to my booth, so PLEASE come by and work, uh um I mean visit! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  2. And Ed, WTF did you just say? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  3. Wow. It's pretty amazing that you found that. My opinion is, "It's a rig, not a new pair of underwear." It doesn't have to be sterile. But just the same, if you were my customer, I would try to rectify the situation myself with a damp cloth and call the manufacturer for backup if needed. Mirage Systems stands behind their product 110%. And by the way, if you only paid $1,500.00 for a brand new Mirage, you got one hell of a deal. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies!

  4. I think both of those pictures are cool. What would you rather see.... ....besides yourself!? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  5. Without the extras, it would be a little high. With all the stuff you are getting with it, it becomes a great deal. Is your rigger familiar with packing Reflex? There are some tips for maintaining a snug pop-top without putting too much pressure on the pin. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  6. I thought Rickard augured Tom in on the golf cart. In any case, it is clear that I can't leave the boy alone with you all at the drop zone! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  7. Yeah, but I don't think he can drink a full case without puking or passing out.... ....I guess that could work to your advantage. The passing out one. Not the puking one! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  8. I think you're sexy! Mathias says you are a full case of beer.... ....goggles..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  9. What happened to Tom while we were away today? What the hell did you guys do to him? I heard 911 was involved. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  10. JP! I saw you riding in your tandem student rodeo style this morning. So I guess if having JP tea-bag the back of your neck is the coolest thing you may ever do..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  11. Gawddammit Bolt! I'm feeling this bang of jealousy right now. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  12. Wait! That guy has my logo all over his parachute! Did you see that? Weird. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  13. Have you considered trading "across"? Try a Sabre2 150 or a Pilot 150. What is it that makes you want to downsize? More speed? You want to get down quicker? Easier packing? Just want to hear from you to see what your ideas are. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  14. To estimate a proper fit, look less at where the hackey handle sits, and more at where the side lateral piece extends from the backpack to the harness. It should sit around waist level, with the pivot point of the harness at the top of your hip bone. There should be no "sag" in the side lateral. It should come staight across horizontally. Leg straps should be less of an issue. As long as you can secure them snug and comfortable. For canopy sizing, please check with the manufacturer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  15. What do you mean? Don't get behind your target? Flare gently? Stop, drop, reel and run? I must be tired, 'cause I'm not sure what specifically you are asking about. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  16. That is awesome! I've never heard of it. I worked with Holly at Buckeye, and took her on most of her AFF jumps. I still have a chrystal necklace that she gave to me. She was so nervous on the climb to altitude as a student, and would hold her chrystal necklace for comfort. Part of my gear check prior to exit was to secure her chrystal. She never made a jump without it. When she graduated, she took it off and put it around my neck and thanked me for her new wings. That was a most amazing moment for both of us. That same chrystal has been off bridges and was around my neck in my own moments of need. What an amazing girl Holly is.... ....sounds like her Mom is pretty amazing too. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  17. Find out if you can jump out of the Balloon with and AFF-I. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  18. Nope. We all need each other to give a shit about each other. USPA has other roles. This one is ours as a community. It's the community that people seem to stick around for. So it's up to each and every member of the community to do their communal part. I expect to be called out when I fuck up. And you sure as shit will be hearing from me if you fuck up. But I don't want to see Johnny Law come in and set some kind of blanket laws to wrap us all up in a political cacoon. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  19. "Amazing Grace" Best when sung by Ani DiFranco! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  20. Disclaimer: That was not me. But that's how I was feeling, except my boobs are bigger and bounce quite a bit more. In fact I have a black eye now! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  21. Can we please get some video of this? ~Chachi Here is video: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=project1090.com/palbums/trampoline/aab.highlight.jpg&imgrefurl=http://project1090.com/pictures/&h=75&w=100&sz=6&tbnid=JwQLchwyn0AJ:&tbnh=57&tbnw=76&start=65&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dtrampoline%2Bgirls%26start%3D60%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26sa%3DN ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies!

  22. Gravity Girl: 36B Not Rich Asshole Meter (8) on a scale of 1 - 10 Liberal European Lover PD Snob Mirage Snob 10 jumps in the past hour if you count me jumping up and down, up and down, up and down.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  23. Shhhhhh don't tell anyone. They might think we like each other. eeeewwww! I only like foxy Swedish Pilots. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  24. Yup. I hate when I try to offer advise to not downsize yet, and they say, "But all my landings are straight in, and my accuaracy is good because I've never landed off." Well. Then you're not ready to downsize. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
  25. I've had the same comments directed toward me. And they stuck. So it even if just one out of 100 listen, when we offer up advise, that's one more friend you get to keep. We ARE friends, right JP? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
