    Sad news

    Events like the one you explained are things I look forward to attending during my skydiving career. I hope there are others in the future but I wish I could have gone to that one. I know I would have been the first one to that hanging case of beer
  2. LMFAO!! Outstanding post, had me laughing out loud!! I am glad my parents don't know the difference
  3. Yes my numbers are up to date. One of the first things I started working on when I did solo's was to gain awareness without instruments. I just held a steady arch and watched the ground, then checked the alti and so on. I feel pretty comfortable on what the ground and horizon looks like at about 5k. I have herd that audibles are good tools for freeflyers (like you said) so that is why I am in the market for one. I will go ahead with the pro-track then, if I am going to get one I might as well get the best.
  4. I did think about that but I like my metal reserve, its easy to grab and wrap my hand around. Its not a serious problem, my handle wont come out even if tugged on (but if pulled it comes out like its supposed to) so I am not worried about it. I just wanted a way to secure the bottom of it down.
  5. I am guessing at my stage I don't really need to get a protrack. I think I am going to go for the pro-dyyter (sp). Yay or ney on that particular one?
  6. Where should I order one from? I need one for my helmet now. I know there are protracks but do they work from the inside of a helmet? (stupid question I guess ) I don't have an exposed port for one. I have a Gunner helmet and it just has a piece you flip up and put one in. Any info is appreciated.
  7. A question for anyone with a G3. On my new G3 my reserve handle (metal) on the bottom seems to slide out a bit. Its not a risk because the rest is stopped, but its bothering me a bit. Does anyone else have this problem? Any ideas on how to fix it?
  8. A lot of girls around here use that word instead of other, cleaner sounding choices. I don't mind though... But there are better words for it.
  9. That show was freggin amazing! [Billy madison]Sooooo hot, want to touch tha hiney...[/Billy Madison]

    WWJD???

    On one of the new sony adds (or another major TV company) has a guy who buys a T.V with is wife. At the end of the commerical the wife is fixing the flowers and he is watching the tv. The T.V is showing a shot from DropZone if I remember correctly ( A night shot of Green and Black canopys flying in a city ). Funny how T.V is now...
  12. I get a bit nervous still but thats because we are all jumping out of airplanes... I like the way it feels though, the nerves and the jumping
  13. DIZZZAMN!!! If it makes you feel better I tried to power slide a rental car but instead locked up the breaks and slammed into a curb at 40. The car was thrashed... I marked that up as the most stupid thing I have ever done.
  14. [raises hand] OoOOooOO Pick Me, Pick Me!!!
  15. I have a Mirage G3. I don't plan on flying a wingsuit for awhile but its something I eventually want to do. Will I have to get a new rig for it or will mine do?
  16. I have yet to see it... I would probably give it a minuet or two if I saw it on.
  17. I wish my best friend was still alive, I wont ever have a friend like him again. For a happier wish: I wish I could reach into my pocket or touch a bag and say an amount of money, then there it was. That way I could help my sisters and my dad could retire.
  18. LOL, so true. I don't remember what level but I had to do a down wind. I learned from it and now know a bit of what to expect on one if I ever have to again (hope not). At the very least it gives the instructors something to watch
  19. Are you talking about this guys rig/pants? http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_attachment;postatt_id=16285; If thats not it then I can't help ya, this doods is very nice though.
  20. I liked it but every time I would try to DL a movie it would time out on me. After about the tenth time that happened I gave up on it. I will wait until its faster, I am guessing its over its bandwidth and I hope they are fixing it. I bet its hard to do so without a good sum of money, all well. Until they return with a faster server, that wont time out on me, I can wait. I am freggin stressin to see some jumping, my re-runs are not cutting it anymore

  23. That one is so true!! ROFLMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!! I do that every day...
  24. That is how I feel about riding my motorcycle. Its one of those what-if situations that makes you wear it every time.
