  1. Pop um on and focus on something 6 feet in front of you. Flip the glasses up and down and you'll see the object move. At least that was what I tried with them after a couple landings and I percieved the field of view moving up and down. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  2. Shit, I guess it has been so long since we were able to brag that I leaked some knowledge. At least I didn't write the beef curtains... It was nice to see TO eat his own endzone dance. I like Eagles and all, but TO is a pain... -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  3. Yeah baby, the steel curtain is back. The buzz bomber has replaced the blonde bomber... -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  4. I like my gatorz for everyday wear, but I don't use them for skydiving. They distort your field of view. I did several jumps with them initially. At the end of my swoops I would go to put my feet down and still be a foot farther off the ground than I thought (which strained a knee).

    S.T.I.T.

    I got mine started early... -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  6. The openings may feel a bit softer, because Dacron stretches and Spectra and Vectran do not. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  7. Happy Birthday Katie! Give Conor a hug and kiss... -Jon death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  8. Not at all, but I have a funny story about it... When I first started dating Kimberly (my avatar's mommy), she rented a bedroom in a friend's house. In that bedroom, also lived her bird, an ivory white-faced cockatiel named Ivory. Ivory had and incredible gift of mimickry. He would bob his head up and down and click whistling the Adam's family theme. He would also whistle the Husker fight song, give kisses, say pretty birdy and step up. Anyway, one night Kimberly was kissing me slightly south of the beltline when Ivory started bobbing his head up and down smacking his beak on the cage making kissing noises. Needless to say, or interlude was pre-empted by 10 minutes of incapacitating laughter. Ivory also laughed and continued to mock us with kissing noises... -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when

    World Series

    7 to 7 in the 7th Go Red Birds!!! My dad has been a Cardinals fan since '35. He isn't likely to see them in the series again, so I am goin' for the birds!!! -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  10. FUCK YA! Raising Fear is one of the best metal albums ever. I saw Armored Saint with Metallica on the Master of Puppets tour and one was just as good as the other. Also, GWAR, Carcass, Bolt Thrower, Morbid Angel, Napalm Death, Entombed, At the Gates, Coroner, Voivod, Dead Horse -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  11. Well with a good enclosure, the video camera is fine. I've had about 1 riser strike in 300 jumps on the left side and it deflected around the d-box and bent the tongue switch plug (mine is mounted inverted on the crown of the helmet) off of the still camera. cheer, Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  12. Aren't you concerned at all about losing the still camera to a riser strike? It seems like it is out there waiting to get plucked if your risers are twisted together and your Stiletto puts you on your back... -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  13. No envy here brother. I am so thankful every day that I have a son. My girlfriend's daughter (his half sister) is 12 now and she is already a handful. She has a Dad, so I have the luxury of being kind of neurtral superfluous 3rd parent. Nonetheless, I don't know if I will even be able to watch her teen years... I bet there will be times between now and 18 that you'll be ready to hand her over. Paternal instincts with a daughter have got to be nothing short of bipolar disorder... death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  14. Kick ass! I am going to Rantoul also. Wanna share a hotel room! Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  15. Hey there pops, yer talkin all crazy. I'll hit you with a tranq. dart full of thorazine from the neighbor's rooftop. You little girl is gonna call me on her cell when your by the window. Again she's on a schedule, we got it all worked out. respectfully, Guy Ponying Yer Daughter death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  16. I have it on my Wings and recommend it. You will be less likely to feel the reserve toggles (good packing helps here too) and Cypres control cable. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when

    Caption this!

  19. It is worth noting that this is also an added safety feature. If the rsl side riser breaks and releases the reserve with the other still connected on a conventional RSL, it could be a bad day for you. As for complexity, the difference with the Collins/rsl is thel cutaway cable for the non rsl side feeds through a loop in the lanyard. If the lanyard goes it pulls the opposite side cutaway cable out with it. Pretty nifty... Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  20. I believe it is 400 pound Dacron. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  21. Have a rigger replace the grommets with stainless steel. That will make the bag last longer and probably the canopy lineset. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  22. 15 years CNS as of yesterday. I can't believe how fast the time goes by. Then again, I think the first year was longer than the last 14 all together. I wish I could help you with adjustment, but skydiving was post party years for me. Actually, I think I needed it to continue sobriety. Skydiving definately speaks to a similar need in my psyche. One of the most important things my sponsor ever taught me was to channel those "character defects" in to positive activites. I guess it's still working. peace, Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  23. I think this is gonna be Synchronicity's year... Yup, those girls are comin' on... -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  24. It was an ad for Skydiving Classifieds. Skydiving mag can probably send you a tear sheet. I felt so bad for all those hotdogs being objectified like that! -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
  25. I wouldn't cross the street to piss on a Texan's head if it was on fire (especially George W's), that is unless I pissed gasoline. -Hixxx death,as men call him, ends what they call men -but beauty is more now than dying’s when
