  1. I have some spare time now to PW, but dunno what to say. They stole my staple remover (or someone borrowed it without returning it) so I can't play with it. Ah well.. I'll just see if I can keep up with the posts in here.. Iwan
  2. Ah yeah.. it is ON! I've never been to Perris (BEEER) and what better motivation than a DZ.com event can you get? Iwan
  3. I'm in for that!! And hopefully we'll be able to beat the record from the last memorial boogie.. We had an attempt in Byron at the Byron Boogie, but it didn't happen.. Iwan
  4. The 18mm will work just fine, people are jumping it that way, it's just a little longer (compare to a 30mm lens on a 35mm camera or so) When I used to jump my .5 with the 28mm on my film rebel it worked just fine as well. I just like the fixed lenses a lot better. Iwan
  5. Cash or plastic.. whatever you want, but it doesn't come with the Rebel. The rebel comes with a 18-55mm lens, which is Ok, but not the best lens out there. Go with fixed, you will not regret it. I got mine off Amazon, no sales tax, no shipping for $399 Iwan
  6. Well.. that would be me about 7 months ago or so.. I have been registered since 2001, but never posted on here.. I think I registered to put my home dz from back then on here. Iwan
  7. Ha ha.. I remember that one when I jumped with her in Davis (at the NorCal FreeFly festival) She said something along the lines of: I am bad with names, unless you hurt me.... Heal quick Kate! Thanks, Iwan
  8. Jake, I have the Digital Rebel as well, and my 15mm Sigma matches up perfect with the Kenko .5 on my TRV17 Lemme know if you have any questions... Thanks, Iwan
  9. Go to the User directory and sort on number of posts! AggieDave is not a Geronimo anymore by the way Iwan
  10. CRAP! It's a good thing I am at work so I didn't click on it. Iwan
  11. Well.. I tried, it didn't work.. sorry about that Iwan What are you talking about? I'm naked. I thought we all were... I was before, but now I am at work... Iwan
  12. Well.. I tried, it didn't work.. sorry about that Iwan
  13. Um.. work.. part-time jobs when I was in university to make some money to jump once in a while to stay current. After I graduated my current fulltime job pays for my jumps and I am jumping all the time now! Iwan
  14. That's a bummer.. will you post it online again when the helicopter does come? I love jumping that thing! (and it's another excuse to come down to Hollister again) Iwan
  15. Are you sure your neighbour isn't stealing electricity to run his lights to grow pot? Iwan
  16. Sounds like you want to have some fun with the Anvil and Girlfalldown, in the packing area playing with cheese and ZP? Iwan
  17. He did, but because he has his own business it doesn't really leave enough time to jump a lot, so I got quite a bit ahead in jumpnumbers.. but that doesn't matter, he still jumps!! Iwan
  18. The problem with the cheaper cameras is that you don't have a remote shutter release on them. And if you have to be worried about losing your cameras, you shouldn't bring them with you on a skydive. I invested quite some money in my camera setup, but if it has to go, it goes.. Thanks, Iwan
  19. Hmm.. I see a pattern in here.. most of us are going to spend it on... skydiving! It's going into my savings for a while, it will probably be spent over the year on different events or skydiving gear... I started off with buying a flash for my still camera.... Iwan
  20. Deuce, Will they be mounted in the upright position? I was thinking of mounting mine on the side, flat to reduce snag possibilities. Iwan
  21. Well.. Congrats.. Enthusiast doesn't make you old yet... wait untill you're a Veteran Iwan
  22. JP, Sure, then you can add it to the list of gear in one of the other threads Thanks for the effort though! Iwan
  23. Oh my god.. of all days, not on Wednesday!!! What are we going to do tonight? And by the way, what are you doing trying to telnet into nameservers? Dammit.. I am going to report you as a hacker he he.. Like they would have telnet open on machines like that. Iwan
