    To be honest, I don't know what anyone does with me I'm pretty sure if they do tolerate me they are crazy or are close to it . Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com

    Note to self: Leather for Clay, Pole for Rosa and I If I had leather in FL I'd wear it. Something about leather or pvc and humidity Damn all those things for being so far away. Don't they know they are supposed to teleport to your hands directly on command?!?!? Stupid banks haven't put ATM's every where just yet Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com

    Please let me know when you get back. The sheep in DeLand across from my house keep stopping me on my way home, asking about your return. They are really starting to show concern for their lack of love lately Life is up and down for just about everyone I know, it keeps the rest of us who aren't in harms way, on our toes. Try to keep up the up's and say fuck the low's. I can't imagine how hard that is to do seeing as where you are stationed (or whatever the non-military term is, I'm clueless). Call me you bastard if you have your Packet8 phone. 845-228-8193, it's my work line so if I answer in my professional voice with, "BookingBuilder Technologies, this is Paige." Don't be scared it's just me in my disguised adult persona. When you building me that tunnel you promised? I know you'll be some mega, super duper, rich-o when you get back I Miss You

    I hope you go with experience over theory most of the time It tends to yield better results actually knowing what happens . Question away though, that is the only reason innovation and change occurs

    Agree. That was very nice of you to write such a positive statement. I wish you all the best. Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com

    Check WrongWay's post about zp on suits, I'm sure there is tons more info. out there far better than mine. Your comparison comes down to making personal choice and trying different things. Everyone is different and has preferences to suit fabric, fit, and drag. Give them all a shot and find out for yourself how they fly. If you can get lift from different fabric why not use the one that works best for you and the situation? I would recommend that to anyone. As I said, I only have tunnel references and not sky so I'm afraid I have nothing to offer your analogy of the jumper (since I've never flown zp in the sky). I've only jumped in skin tight ff pants or a suit to increase my speed in the sky. I've never needed to slow down in freefall so I would definitely stay away from any zp on a sky suit but hey maybe I'm crazy Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com

    I'm going to quote myself here.... "now you have more drag with less bag so you are not getting smacked or flown by the suit." Having a baggy suit to fly in an SV tunnel is no fun for me. With the zp you have a better fit suit, you don't have to wear a harness to keep the bag in your legs from smacking you while sit flying or hd, and you fly your body not the suit. If you need drag and want less bag, zp is it, I speak from only tunnel experiences however. The zp suit creates way more lift and drag in the end, thus the whole tunnel suit being made out of zp. Hope this helps, if not blame it on the time of morning Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com

    I know Ouragan ZP tunnel suits are simply the best in the SkyVenture environment. I think this has made a huge difference in tunnel suit performance, now you have more drag with less bag so you are not getting smacked or flown by the suit. I love both of my freefly Ouragan tunnel suits and how they fit. I prefer the smaller suit to the baggier ones so zp is the perfect answer for me. I know it's not the sky but it is an example of how the fabric is changing and evolving with the sport. Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com

    Every body part is very different. Nipples are more sensitive than bellybuttons in general. Everyone is different but bellybuttons are much easier in every manner. They both take just as long to heal for the most part. PM me if you have other questions that I can help with. I'll do my best but without specifics its hard to get ya what you are looking for.

    Nipples are crusty and bloody for some Long time to heal for some people and I don't know as if I would ever get them done again if they closed up. They are nice but they get old just like anything else. I've had mine since 1999 and they are just there now but I stil like them. One is crooked but I really don't care to go through all of that again just to have it stratight. Of course now that I say that I'll get a bug up my ass to get poked with a needle.

    Paige replied to HardCorr's topic in Freeflying

    Try doing what drives you or what you want to do instead of what is cool at your dz. Try it all but please be safe. When freeflying use a coach, when belly flying use a coach....it never hurts

    Geeez relax already You also would not ask Rembrandt to show you how to use a paint roller. I think most coaches would be good for helping with AFF basics - and you ought to choose the right value tuition. So true. There are so many Rembrandt tunnel rats that get tourists flying, you are really never at a shortage for talent at SVO. They get paid to fix all kinds of problems all day long from people with little experience. I love the rats there and they have taken my flying far beyond what I imagined, esp. after my accident. Like Ron, I also think that there are some AFF instructors who also work in the tunnel who can help out in situations like this. You can pretty much pick as you please for your price and skill at SVO. The staff is the best and has been flying tourists and skydivers for a very long time.

    tunnel isn't cheap. there's no arguement it issssss MUCH more efficient and way less annoying than repeating levels.[/end hijack???] Quote I think its priceless esp. at the stage of the game you two are in, I didn't repeat levels but I could imagine that it would be very frustrating
  16. Paige
    Despite what others on here might think, I want you to be at the tunnel flying. I don't care if its with me or whoever. The important thing is that people fly and learn from as many coaches as they can. If you can afford $$$ coaches, do it. I know I pay for coaching and love getting advice from everyone at the tunnel (well not everyone, let's not flame that statement please). The more you know in my opinion, it never hurts to hear it again, esp. coming from great people with many awesome experiences. The Orlando rats are simply the best and are always willing to help in my experiences but maybe that's cause I have BOOBS

    I know you had a winky face after that and everything, but I just want to mention that Sally is a fantastic coach and a world champ, as well as an AFF instructor. And she doesn't charge much when compared to other coaches. Her fee is very reasonable. Sally is fantastic!!!!!!!! I just wrote in another post as to the nature of my comments, I knew him and have been at the tunnel with him. It's a joke, really all in good fun. Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com
  18. Paige
    Yes that may be so, but you are not a world champion several times over and she has at least ten times more hours coaching in the tunnel than you do, plus thousands of skydives doing RW, AFF training and coaching. Everything she teaches in the tunnel is based on that vast experience. Actually she is in Atlanta training with her team for another world championship. marc Relax people it's all in good fun. You are taking things way to seriously. I know him, we've been to the tunnel together. IT WAS A JOKE. I've been in the tunnel with Sally and she's great. I never said she wasn't.

    I think she's out in Texas Oh, and we're much cheaper than Tunnelcoach.com Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com

    If you go in with an open mind, willingness to learn, listen, and try new things, you will definately improve your flying with the right coach. Call the closest tunnel to you and find out how they can help get you fixed up

    I have purchased 2 Ouragan Tunnel Suits and LOVE THEM BOTH!!!! I will never fly a SkyVenture tunnel without one. The ZP material gives you more lift with less drag while it also allows you to fly your body instad of the suit or a wing. The fit of both my suits is fantastic. My suit has never ridden up my butt and is far more comfortable than the Tony Suits I have flown at the tunnel. My custom design turned out fabulous and my new tunnel suit is so beautiful. Custom embroidery is offered by Larry at Alchemy Sewing. Together with Larry and Nancy's excellent quality and service, I will return to Ouragan Suits for all of my tunnel suit needs.

    Tammy, although I have tons of time in SVO, tunnels I don't fly frequently offer different envorinments that I'm not used to can be frustrating, challenging, rewarding, and fun (for me at least). I think lots of people have similar stories me included, it was It's tough to go from walls to no walls, be happy you are learning without first The important thing is you went back and your tunnel and sky flying will improve greatly. Keep it up and let me know how its going. Glad you got bit by the tunnel bug, can't be the scenery or coaching at AAC either. Everything about that place is great! You have a great tunnel to fly all the time and fireworks on Monday, I'm so green over here. Please share your pics if you have a way to
