Um, it's 10 AM, and you're at work and you are drinking Smirnoff ? Do they have job openings there? We don't even have beer in the fridge.

Yeah if there's a lot of those, I might just go to bed..

So i'm bringing smirnoff ice and some nutri-grain bars. That will keep the dutch guy away. Of course he might like the cooler i carry it all in. Don't tell me you are coming to the NorCal FFF are you? I'm not going..

I'll come if i can find some Dutch repellant. Beer. Bring tons of beer. I hear it works well as Dutch repellant. Oh and food, steaks work well. I agree bring beer.. but that's not a repellant.. and steak is nice too.. need more steak..

ok.... I am speechless now..

do you think people will recognize you without the trademark I am a little worried about that indeed... Maybe I'll bring it in case that becomes an issue..

You're not rich? Damn, i dont think i can talk to you anymore. Besides, people should pay me and Val for the privelege of jumping with us!! No worries, I feel privileged, I just don't have the funds to be giving out balloon jumps.. I just bought a new helmet to replace "the dome"

You still owe me a balloon jump.

Sunshine, we can talk about Eloy now.. but first we're going to the Byron Boogie!! YIEHAA.. By the way.. I'll be representing in Eloy too.. I don't know what yet, but I'll be there anyways..

I heard there might be a mystery guest this year (and.. BUUUUUUMP) Iwan

You just want to be on top of me.. But thanks anyways for sorting the list..

Did I spill beer on you back then too? So the list is now: vdschoor mcneill79 hookitt genoyamamoto girlfalldown (without stains)

the 9 frames is how long the camera does the 3fps for. Getting rid of that 1.6 might be a while though.. I heard it's incredibly expensive to make the full frame sensors.

Amen to that.. So who's coming: vdschoor mcneill79 hookitt genoyamamoto

Clicky Check this out, the upgrade for the 10D is coming.. Iwan

This was talked about before they left for the boogies, but the problem with wearing a base rig is that you are not allowed to jump out of an airplane with that, so that was not an option. Iwan

Ok, here's the story as I know it. I know both people, and yes they have been planning this for quite some time, they have done several succesfull Mr. Bill's before they decided it was going smooth enough to land one. McBain bought the PD 210 for the sole purpose of beeing able to pull this trick off. The original plan was to do this at Lost Prairie, but it didn't happen there, for whatever reason. I don't know if they were not allowed to, or maybe the speed of the landings was not comfortable to both parties involved. I don't think there was lack of preparation for this stunt, but even with preparation it is a stupid stunt. about us not liking McBain, that is not true, there is no "not liking" going on, but people don't feel comfortable getting close to someone that is ignoring every single piece of advice that he doesn't like. People have offered him all the training he would need to become a bad ass swooper and they told him they would teach him to swoop the shit out of his Triathlon when he still had that. He has 1 mission: "to fly the a small shit-hot canopy ASAP" Trying to obtain a Velocity 120 at Lost Prairie is another example of this. Lying about jump numbers to DZO's so you can do nightjumps.. He is not a bad guy, in fact he is a nice guy, he just doesn't listen and that's why people "don't like him" Iwan

0:10:0 A couple tandem videos, some funjumping and a kick ass S3 flight!! Thanks Deuce for letting me use that suit... I just checked out my bank account, I think I need one now..

Who did it? Was it at WFFC? I heard John King (the packer) and McBain talking about doing it at LP, but it didn't happen there, and they are both in Rantoul right now.. Was it them? Iwan

Who landed it? Was it John King and McBain? Iwan

Bwaaaaaa.. Well.. there's nothing wrong with the little Focus I have, it made it all the way from California to Montana, AND back!! ha ha.. Even after taking it offroad in the Montana hills to get to the watch tower for the sunset fly-by. Iwan

Yiehaa... congrats to Chopchop! And of course don't forget Kevin and Q.. they got their ratings as well this week.

I started uploading some last night, but I'm dealing with some computer issues.. I think I need to pay Best Buy a visit on the way home from work today..

Um no Casa this year? The NorCal boogies need more tailgates....

Who's going to the NorCal Freefly Festival in Davis, CA this year? Last year was a blast and the calendar on the Skydance website says Sept. 10 - Sept 13th (Friday to Monday) There is no info on aircraft yet, but they used to have a Casa there.. So.. Who's going? And if you have any more info on aircraft, that would be cool too... Iwan
