  1. Here is the Orlando, FL number 407-338-0036
  2. Like a King Air or a Queen Air, or did you mean Beach (like the sandy type) Jumps? Mark Klingelhoefer
  3. Get the guy that was at the Hog Flop with the printing machine to come. Use the "vintage" Dublin shirts to print something new on.
  4. I think the pictures in this show how great of a song Jack wrote and help people not listen to, but understand the lyrics. Whereas, Dave sometimes just has some f-d up lyrics. I love them both.
  5. The third picture looks like a really gnarley opening, canopy 75% inflated before line stretch......OUCH.
  6. It's Cutaway the Gameshow Part 2. That doesn't look like Jeffro though.
  7. I think this is Mike X. He had the idea when he was living in Titusville, and now I know he is in Toronto, where the auction originated. Mark Klingelhoefer

    Part 2 is even better (the 2 best movies of all time). Don't waste your time with part 3.
  9. I've done 3 intentional cutaways and videoed about 50 of them. When I was training people how to do the cutaway, I would tell them "put your hands on both handles, and pull the cutaway and wait 1 second (The skyhook takes 1/2 of a second from cutaway before the freebag is off the reserve), if you do not have anything out pull the reserve handle" Now this was with our (UPTs) intentional cutaway rig, and I had a requirement of a minimum of 500 jumps to do the jump when I was doing these on the tour. My logic was, after 500 jumps, you are comfortable enough in you EPs that changing them up for one jump should not change them perminantly in your mind. Whereas if I let someone with 50 jumps do it, they might have a cutaway on their own, non-skyhook, rig and not pull the reserve handle because of what I had told them. Another thing to consider, When doing these jumps, I have the person check the RSL shackle twice.. Once after deployment, and once right before the cutaway. If the shackle is not attached to your riser, you do not have a Skyhook. Mark Klingelhoefer United Parachute Technologies
  10. It's in the works. Not with magnets though. Although they (Magnets) are now being added to the main disc cover flap. Mark Klingelhoefer
  11. While you are in Deland, Stop by UPT and I'll give you a tour. Mark Klingelhoefer United Parachute Technologies
  12. If you currently have an RSL in your container, the retrofit is only $250 (or the same price of having on put into a new container). If you need to add an RSL, it is $100 more. I think the procing is very reasonable instead of saying you need to buy a new container to have a SkyHook. BTW, the retro is only available on V3 style containers. We can not do it for Vector 2s.

  13. I can't believe it was not 27-30 unanimus for Rashad.
  14. Deland if you want a bunch of jumps, Sebastion or SSC for the view. Call first for SSC, they don't jump much during the week.
  15. What would the courts think when you tell the FAA rep this? Mark Klingelhoefer
  16. That's Classic.......Flame on....... Mark Klingelhoefer
  17. I think this should be made a sticky. Every couple weeks someone has fantastic service from these guys and if it could be kept under one thread, it might rival the Skyride threads for the max number of replys...... Great service guys..... Mark Klingelhoefer
  18. Hey, Every woman that attends a Team Dirty Sanchez event is Beautiful..beer or no beer....... I agree, but I need the beer for the women to find me attactive. NO BEER BAN!!!!! Mark Klingelhoefer
  19. I do not, I'm a people person! I LIKE people! Well, that is as long as you're not stinky, smelly, have bad breath, rude, pig-headed, arrogant, creepy or just a big freakin' weirdo. Wait...I just described 80% of skydivers, didn't I? Skymama, Your not pig headed,

    longest tube

    I have one that is 27' long and it provides too much drag for maost people to fly head down with it. I did have it slightly tapered on the end to make it more rigid. Mark Klingelhoefer
  21. Edited to change Florida Skydiving center titusville to Skydive Space Center.
