  1. I've been Dove hunting for months. So I guess the answer would be yes. It's a gas, gas, gas...
  2. I know newbies should keep there mouths shut and listen and learn, but I've gott achime in. I agree completely John. Planned lurking would be cool because the lurker would know what the plan was as well as the people being lurked... Unplanned definitly not. As a low timer going out solo, I'd be highly pissed to look up and find someone in the sky with me unannounced. Even if it was a skygod, just not good practice. I'd seriously come unglued. Just not cool. Your coached to have your dive planned when you hit that door for a reason. To have someone show up unplanned, knowing they were going to do it, it's bullshit. This is no time to be playing adlib. I can't imagine it. my two cents, jjf It's a gas, gas, gas...
  3. Nah Bill, I don't think anyone was taking it that way. You make some good points and I could see where that could become an issue. In this case though these guys are all about safety and they will do everything they can to make sure the skydiver is capable when they go out that door on there own. peace and warmth, Jack It's a gas, gas, gas...
  4. I've got that book Rosa, and not only is it incredible for skydving, but even more so for everything else. Good read it is. peace, Jack It's a gas, gas, gas...
  5. THIS IS WHY YOU ROCK. Keep going. Never Give Up, Never Surrender. This is what sets some apart from others. It's easy to hang out when everything goes well, the real test is can you hang when shit is rough. You can hang, peace, Jack It's a gas, gas, gas...
  6. I understood exactly what you were asking Cindi, I think everyone else did as well. I'm sure there are others that had similar problems. peace, Jack It's a gas, gas, gas...
  7. Nah Bill, they are taking great care of her. She's well loved and Chris and Gang are working real hard to ensure she knows how to fly before taking that solo step. She's doing good though, I think she'll get it soon.
  8. Sushi is incredible It's a gas, gas, gas...
  9. Ahem My gear is Black, with a touch of red. So yeah! Black Rocks It's a gas, gas, gas...
  10. Great article, should go in the Articles section of the site. It's a gas, gas, gas...
  11. Coolness, yeah, after the initial question, I figured I best mosey on over to theCReW forum and poke around a bit... I'm thinking it sounds interesting... jjf It's a gas, gas, gas...
  12. I think you should paint it red. It's a gas, gas, gas...
  13. Exactly.... Massively cool when good Triumphs. Warms my heart to hear it's working out. peace, Jack It's a gas, gas, gas...
  14. I'm confused Lisa, being dumb about this discipline, I thought they'd fly large docile canopies. Why would they put you on a smaller one than your comfortable flying? fun shit this stuff is... jjf It's a gas, gas, gas...
  15. Ok, I jump at a smaller dz, but actually for a midwest DZ I'd say its pretty large. We have a beautiful Otter and incredible talented people... However, aside from the fact that the owners of our dz were world champions multiple times in CRW. Aside from that, I don't see anyone at this point at our dz working on CRW. In fact, I don't really even hear anyone talking about it either. How about your dz? Are you folks seeing any groups getting in to it? It's not that I'm considering a study in it, but it just seems odd there isn't more of it. Almost everyone can be grouped in to two categories at this point. BellyFlyers and FreeFlyers.... Who let the dawgs out? It's a gas, gas, gas...
  16. 0:1:0 I did get my second coach dive in just before the weather crapped out... Safety day was just incredible, good information, great seminars. I did get my class and 97 percent of my frickin yellow card is DONE. CAN YOU SAY DAYUM! I did get my first helmet, Full Face, Factory Diver, CAN YOU SAY HELL YES! I also had a great dinner and beers with the crew which actually topped off a great day. it's all good, Jack It's a gas, gas, gas...
  17. It's great being a young jumper, plowing in, answering a poll like this, reading through the thread with complete virgin like interest... And then have something like the reality of your answer hit. Brought to you by DUH. Thanks Kallend, pretty obvious answer, if the damn thing is malfunctioning to that point, how the hell could we believe we could actually steer it... Love it when that "epiphany" moment reaches my brain, thanks for being the catalyst. I was so sucked in to that one. I picked the trees.
  18. I'd have to say your just about a couple notches ahead of your brethren there...
  19. Incredible. Great classes, got a coach dive in, had a blast afterwards at dinner. Nice stuff. Jack It's a gas, gas, gas...
  20. Obviously. It's cool to see real men still exist. It's a gas, gas, gas...
  21. Sunny your a sweetie... Big Vibes Get well soon! It's a gas, gas, gas...
  22. Truly, I hear you.... I've also been a bucs fan, as well as Broncos, etc.... I'm just not liking the salary cap shit. Probably just getting really old. It's a gas, gas, gas...
  23. Um, WTF? Is this a MOnty Python Bit? How did we go with him and his lady to Frisking someone? ? It's a gas, gas, gas...
