    'Timmay' So when you trial something you are obliged to buy it? Never said that or implied that. Just you making shit up. Maybe they were sure I would change my mind, you know, I almost did at one stage, until it got windy! Like I said "Spin it anyway you want to make yourself feel better but you are wrong".

    You did not take the goods on a trail basis. A trail basis would be you take something to try it out for a period of time to decide if you liked it or not. You fully intended to return it whether you liked it or not. This is not a trail basis. Spin it anyway you want to make yourself feel better but you are wrong. And to use your own words "I will agree that it is morally incorrect to do so".

    About 20-22 hours of driving to Z-hills from Toronto. That must have been a fun weekend (couple of hours).

    Canopy's don't stay fully inflated after they are cut away. Nice try though. As long as we're nitpicking... nice try on proper spelling and punctuation. I fixed it for you: Canopies don't stay fully inflated after they are cut away; nice try, though. I also notice you didn't excerpt the T-10 comment; are you going to gainsay that one too - or just the one for which I don't have a photo? Canopy's don't stay fully inflated after they are cut away. Nice try though.

    You certainly have tried that tactic in the past. You must be the one claiming it to be so.

    Are you claiming that two wrongs now make a right? That is so funny coming from you since in the past you have defended your position by bringing up something similar a republican has done. (Response will be-"Show me where I've said that". Sorry, don't have time to search a thousand post but I know I've read it)

    You will be one of them. Military static line jumps vs. sport jumps=apples to oranges

    Good example of a skygod. npgraphicdesign, don't let people like this here or at your DZ bother you. You are better off not associating with people that have this attitude.

    That's not going to happen any time soon with his huge ego.

    According to jackwallace, you didn't try hard enough and you are a poor insttructor.

    Wrong! I'm not one of them Mad Skillz. I have Mad Skillz. Good reason not to downsize. You are looking for validation, not advice.

    So why did they clip it? I thought it changed the meaning significantly, which is exactly why they DID clip it. Cause it did not make any difference as to the context That is a reason for NOT clipping it. The context is not changed whether is was clipped or not.

    That's absolutely true. However, it's equally true that a creative instructor and a motivated student can often find a different way to accomplish the necessary goals/skills -- if the key ones can be identified. This is true but it still does not mean EVERYONE can do ANYTHING with a good teacher. It is not always the teachers fault. Like I said before "Not every person has the mental ability to do ANYTHING they want or the physical ability to do ANYTHING they want, even with the best teacher."

    We have to do something here. I am sick of paying for Illegals medical, schooling and other needs. Just how much are YOU personally paying to support illegals? It is funny how you try to twist someones words. Nothing new for you though. Unless you actually didn't understand his meaning. Maybe you need some more education. Either way-pathetic.
  16. timmyfitz
    You really believe there are not any bad students in anything? It's all the teachers fault? You believe that every person can be taught to do anything with the right instruction? Not every person has the mental ability to do ANYTHING they want or the physical ability to do ANYTHING they want, even with the best teacher. So yes, bullshit.

    Did you not know better before your accident? With about 20 years in the sport in 2001 my guess would be that you had seen a few landing accidents but somehow you had one. I guess that answers the question...."Are we ever going to learn anything?" Some people learn by example, some learn after they screw up. Nothing new.

    We have had simular laws on the books forever, EVERYONE has to carry a legal ID , to not do so can cost you a minumu of 24 hours in jail... Wrong.

    Bullshit!

    If you type "Barack Obama" into Google one of the top ten autocompletions that comes up is "birth certificate". Evidently it is NOT a dead horse for a lot of people So what you are saying is that there is no shortage of really stupid and gullible idiots in the world, correct? So what you are saying is that you are one of them, correct?

    Hey shah269, did you notice I was not responding to you?
  22. timmyfitz
    You seem to have very strong opinions as to what instructors should or shouldn't do. A little surprising coming from someone with very little experience and no instructor ratings.

    do you also think criminality has something to with the shape of the criminals' heads? (as well as their colour) Don't give DD any facts that clearly dispute his on going rant. He will just change the direction of the subject.

    which is still ridicilous.. Just curious, why do you consider it ridiculous? In your opinion, should it be more? Less? Why? Just wondering what your reasoning is. at my dz, typically you have somewhere between 80-100 jumps, on others around here it may be in the range of 50 or so jumps; just a little more confidence you're not going to fuck yourself or others up, proved you can accomplish different tasks, have taken a written exam (like for your C-license if i'm correct!?), can pack and "un-mess" your parachute and so on.. you know how to fly a safe (!!!) pattern and know what vertical and horizontal separation is, you can hit your intended target by 50 or so feet.. just things like that. you cant accomplish that in only 25 jumps.. Do you have one on one coaching for all those jumps? If not then it's a moot point. Practice without critique usually leads to bad habits. (And yes, all of that is pretty much accomplished in 25 jumps. Just because you say differently doesn't make it true.)
