  1. Advanced results 1. Danny Koons (kicked ass) 2. Mike Meyers (also kicked ass) 3. Luther Kurtz 4. Ramon Rionda (me) 5. Kyle ???? 6. Diveout from DZ com I forgot the rest of the order . Please post if you got it. When I left Panama city the wind was down and the pros were doing the first round of distance. Heath Richardson had about 322 ft (furthest I saw) JC had about 300 ish Lots of people were missing the 5 ft gates (the practice day before the winds were higher). About 43 pros turned up and 12 intermediate (only 11 intermediate competed). Some sort of Harley bike week was starting as I left and it looked like it was getting busy. ramon "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  2. But I had to go swoop at the Swoop festival advanced series "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  3. I'm ready...I think bad weather here though...not much practice "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  4. I'll arrive in Sebastian Apr 23rd. ramon "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  5. Dave does like to do an eval jump first (this is so he knows what to expect from you in the sky during the test). ramon "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  6. Actually I am jumping the canopy for Atair. If I am somewhere and someone would like to try a 105 comp Cobalt and I feel their skill level will compliment their loading, then they are my guest. If you want to try one for an extended period of time or want a different size, try calling Atair and sending them the form. I have no information on the Onyx, but I think they should be able to send you a comp. cob. in the size you want. Surf is up today buddy..... ramon "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  7. You try my competition cobalt 105 at the swoop fest. After the advanced competition rounds that is. ramon "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  8. If you go to Sebastian the Saturday or Sunday before I'm sure you could get it from Dave Brown or Mike Swanson. I'll be there hanging out and jumping. ramon "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  9. I need to mount 3 gauges in my mustang (Air fuel ratio, oil pressure and boost, heh heh). Anyone know a good site on the net that will have mounts and pictures. I need something relatively cleanlooking. thanks ramon "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  10. Hey Chris I have high waters too. most other guys I've seen don't, theirs fit right. I just don't slide on my ankles. Never had any problems except for tearing the knees off of jumpsuits when I don't wear my motocross pants. Hope to see you at PCB ramon "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  11. I think I am staying at a condo with SkymonkeyOne. Should be a blast ramon "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.

    So sad....

    because Iraq threatens the world with horrible weapons of masturbation..I mean mass destruction. Saddam is an asshole but please..I guess this is what the presidents speech writers think of the majority of voters...baaahhh..bleat bleat Always remember the US Vetoes resolutions every year by the UN that Israel is a terrorist state.

  15. Cool photos "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  16. Got to be difficult? I have less jumps than anyone (barely 1000) in the competition except one guy in the pre-quals (everyone else had at least150% more jumps than me) I scored higher in my first pro level competition than others on traditional cross braced canopies. Aside from the top Pros that took zeros trying to go big , I was consistant in beating guys with close to my experieince on VXs, FXs and velocities. I think the cobalt is easier to correct mistakes during the swoop and still is capable of swooping further than any non cross brace out there. r "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.

  18. Atair Competition Cobalt 105 loaded at 2.07. I am not flying any canopies other than Atair mains or my PD reserves ramon "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  19. There were 29 in the pre qualification and then that top 20 went to perform on the beach in public (20 jumpers one load)..sort of a public event. It was a go big or loose all competition since there were only 2 rounds and first prize was $2,500. "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  20. they were AWOL "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  21. The same can be said for persons that think it is "intellectual" or "morally right" to support anything that pours out of opposing view point (persons that watch Rush Limbaugh and know nothing about NAFTA the UN or IMF) . Where I come from clan rallies still exist and frat boys put rebel flags in their windows because it is trendy (David Duke country) It is all the same, if you are ignorant, you are ignorant. ramon "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  22. I heard you and Aggie Dave went to a house of ill repute......Texas style Due to a slight spotting boo boo r "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  23. 5th Wyat Drews 4th Ian Bobo 3rd Chris...(I can't remember, he is associated with Airspeed and he flew really well) 2nd Nathan Gilbert (very consistent) 1st Heath Richardson (refuses to make a mistake) Yours truly came in 13th and my team mate Brian Moffet came in 15th out of 20 (however the difference in points between me and the higher place finishers was great). The best local boy was Eric Boyd from Spaceland at 12th and who had a very respectable 11th on the pre-qual. The winds were very tricky and some swoopers that put it all on the line did not receive any points when they could not reach the end of the course. It was a lot of fun, Alaska Jon and Red Bull put on a fun event. Bloo skies Ramon "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
  24. Came in 21st out of 29. Two pros bowed out of the finals so I am in (teamie Eric Butz came in 18th, but wants to work Saturday so I got a spot at the Finals tomorrow..woo hoo). Though I did not have any stellar rounds, I got no zeros.....
  25. Spaceland tomorrow Then in Galveston on Saturday (top 20) "Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.
