i did a 12 way tracking dive on jump number 99 and then a 9 way sit fly on number 100 awsome was absolutely buzzing seeing all those buddies flying around me very cool

yeh remi your right about empuria but its nice and easy to figure which way to track there just keep the sea either on your left or right i prefer to track off to roses or if your doing a tracking dive with some friends catch the rabiit and then go on to your back and do a circuler track so you are going back in the direction you came from.. great fun

if in doubt get a bigger hammer!

just my 10 cnets but i have had around 120 jumps on my thomas sports super fly container and it feels mights snug, especially as i got a type of felt covering that fits to your back it doesn't seem to move around much and it pretty much moulded to my back what with the comfort rings in you can really throw your weight into your turns under canopy, and all in all i am still finding it mighty comferatable and very freefly friendly this pidgeons gotta fly mooose

stevie boy that my man your down in france already ??? coooooool am moving down to empuria soon will be down there in 2 weeks and will be looking for an appartment an all. so drop me a line on allan.wester@exxonmobil.com they always have loads of rigs to sell. and when you get up to empuria we'll do a few head up jumps together and i'll film it will be a laugh but it'll cost you a bottle of vodka (yuk yuk yuk) this pidgeons gotta fly moooooooooooooose

hi there now just an idea i have got a freefly suit from a company called matter in spain they do freefly suits which are not at all that baggy but the makew of it is so that you can really grab some air, they also put small grips on the arms and legs if you want to do rw work for more info drop me a line at allan.wester@exxonmobil.com p.s i own one of these suits and have been really impressed with them this pidgeons gotta fly mooooooooooose

good ribs at empuria ahhhaaa . now now ben just cause i'm a pie master and not a floating expert. but if you want to find good ribs in empuria 1: look on the beach during the summer 2: opposite the dropzone there is a road opposit across the roundabout in thre direction of the nimbin. carry along there for 150 metres and then turn right its a local place where food is cheap and good.. hooe this helps cya moooooooooooose

Question for any army jumper, or anyone else with
huffermoose replied to Jabeln79's topic in The Bonfire
well i never joined the army or the services (am from the U.K) but i did join the Merchant Navy (merchant marine i think you guys in the states call it once i was qualified i was working approximately 7 months in the year on a good wage giving me another 5 months to do what i want whilst still getting paid (as i was on leave). it took me 4 years to get qualified as a navigator but the in those first 4 years i got to see the whole of the far east and we are not talking about all the comercial places but all the small ports in papau new guinea all around the aussie coast the ,sumatra's, java new zealand , also africa, and all around europe, at present am working in west africa on a 4 weeks on 4 weeks off basis thus only working 6 months a year i started jumping around april this year and have managed to knock up 160 jumps and am planning to move down to spain right by a cool DZ and have at least 500 jumps in by this time next year. it's an idea why not give that a go. however you have the downside of not being able to jump for a full 4 weeks at a time and not see land for those four weeks. but it suits me . just my 10 pence worth cya moooose -
yeh i am going to empuria for this christmas boogie will be arriving there from west africa on new years eve which will be sweet hopefully i will have my own place out there by that time will be organizing it during my next leave in about 3 weeks time if i m there you are more than welcome to crash cya moooooose

Speaking of chickens! i was in spain 2 weeks ago and we saw these 2 light weight rubber chickens and then the bored skydivers brains start to think a bit. next day comes along, 4 of us get into the pilatus porter innocently whistling away to our selfs. we get to altitude and the rubber chickens come out the aff instructor taking his student for level 4, looks at us smiles and shakes his head as we disapear out of the door with the count "bok bok bokaaaaaaaaa" so there we are in sit and stand passing these chickens between us (good learning practice we found) then suddenly as one of my mates pass the chicken on. This other guy he sinks below us and the one chicken gets away and burns in! we are not to sure where it landed but chuckled away to ourselfs at the thought of "ED" (as he was fondly known as) landing on some german on holiday in the back garden of his summer villa. just thought i would share it with you. they cost around 5 pound a piece and are very aerodynamic! cya moooooooose

or you could be like skreamer and myself jumping with our imaginary relative friends in the sky, i still do it now you can still learn loads have a great time do things which you cant do with other peope yet etc etc but i guuess theres nothing like smiling at your mates and pulling funny faces at them thats what i enjoy most just have fun this pidgeons gota fly cya moooooooose

yeh i did my first balloon jump in spain 2 weeks ago and decided to film my mate as i jumped out backwards he followed me out i was so nervous all the stil air and to hear the whistling of the air increase as you pick up speed my friend couldn't stop laughing for like an hour afterwards as it being my first still air jump i looked like a traffic cop on my back with my arms and legs moving all over the place trying to catch some air which wasn't there i still get a real buzz just thinking about it can' wait to do another onee this pidgeons gotta fly moooose

anyhow i got some really good footage from the balloon jump as i jumped of backwards with my mate following me it was quite unerving (pfffffffffffffffffft) but had a good last jump on the friday when the limit had come down to 100 jumps we did a 3 way tracking dive wherte we have our arms around the back of each others rigs and trtack together it´s quite easy really and whats real fun is being able to talk to the person next to you and you get a longer skydive, but after about 10 seconds of this i broke off and did a cool backtrack as they tried to catch me very cool jump for a very cool week however now i am off to west africa today for 4 weeks which should give you the chance for you boys to catch up with my jump numbers hahahaha this pidgeons gotta fly mooooose
