  1. Placed my 2 year bet on you guys :) MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have. We must live life to the fullest EVERY DAY. Everything we do should have a greater purpose.
  2. Really? In which part of the country has the FAA made it mandatory for you to be a USPA Member? I have never heard this so please qoute the regulation that you speak of.

  3. Just know the law for public nudity/indecdent exposure doesn't apply until you touch the ground so be sure and get covered up ASAP. Other then that it is a blast. I haven't made one in over 3 years but I think it is about time to make another one

  5. Regardless of all the nonsense, from the very begining I thought Adam, Alison and Danny where going to be in the top 3. Those three where the best from the very begining. I am surprised Chris didn't go home a month ago so I expect him to go home tonight. As for who wins if you base it on who will be the biggest talent Adam or Alison have the best chance of being an "American Idol" I don't care to much for listening to Adam talk but the kid can fuckin' sing. He made Zepplin his last night. I have heard alot of folks try but no one has ever pulled it off like he did. I was flat out amazed. I would like to see Alison win it though. She will need alot of help picking the write songs, when she gets it right she is amazing to listen to, when she gets it wrong you just cringe. Danny should have a pretty amazing career as well. He can sing and has a fan base that is historically pretty loyal. I bet all 4 end up selling a couple million of thier first albums of which 3 of them I am sure to buy

  7. I have Mutual of Omaha. I went through Zander Insurance. http://www.zander.com They are a Dave Ramsey ELP. My insurance is 2500 a year for 20 Term Life 500k But I am a former Junkie/Smoker/Drunk who now skydives for kicks. I think the price is fair. Hell I wouldn't have even insured me if I was the one making the choice. MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have.

  8. I pay $2500 a year becasue I skydive it better damn well pay up if I burn in. Hell it will even pay up if I off myself.

  13. Celebrated 7 years last week. I forgot to post until someone just pm'd me asking me if I knew Jimmy K and I realized I didn't make my yearly post. What an amazing Journey the last 7 years have been. If I had known life could be this good (or that I would live this long) I might have taken better care of myself... Hey Squeak...My Life STILL ROCKS :) MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have. We must live life to the fullest EVERY DAY.

  15. I posted my negative feelings on the other thread so in all fairness I need to post the positive. Mark said he was sending out the updates and just as he said they arrived today. So there you have it I complained loudly and now I am thanking them just the same. THANK YOU MARK AND UPT..
  16. Thanks Mark MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have. We must live life to the fullest EVERY DAY. Everything we do should have a greater purpose.
  17. Stayhigh get off the crack pipe ya dipshit.No way does the N word come out of my mouth in any form I have emailed mark and as I said in my last post I am not saying anything else about my issues with UPT unless mark wants to keep talking about it or if things change. I said what I said and I stand behind what I said. Right wrong or indifferent I said it. MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have.

  18. Last thing I will post on this and if Mark wants to tell what really happend he can. Why did I take delivery? Mark's response was "if you bitch enough i'll have to rebuild your entire rig" He also stated it would take another 3 months or so to re-build. I went ahead and kept it and when i asked what they where going to do to make it right thats when the communication stopped. What their last response was I do not wish to share as a third party is involved and they never should have been and do not need to be involved again. As measure of a company is not how they take care of people when things go right but the opposite, how they take care of people when things go wrong.

  19. Wow, a real team player. UPT admitted to making a mistake, replaced your toggles in short order, and you couldn't bring yourself to send them a picture? I'm surprised they didn't ask you to return the faulty toggles, for inspection, and training purposes in the factory, which I think would have been a reasonable request. Instead, all they ask for is an e-mailed photo, and that was too much trouble for you? And now you publicly complain about them? The toggles where returned to them and pictures where emailed to them. Oh and it took 2 weeks to get the toggles. My DZO gave me a loaner pair while I waited. I'll stop highjacking this thread but if Mark wants to post what really happened that would be good P.S. I keep every email and PM so I can show what when where and how MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have. We must live life to the fullest EVERY DAY.

  20. I'll stop highjacking the thread slot.. Sparky as a matter of fact yes I conduct alot of buisness through the internet as does many many companies. That is why they have a rep on the boards isn't that right Mark. As for the PM's I would post all the buisness that was conducted with UPT by PM to show a pattern of YES they do conduct buisness by PM's. And as for poor customer service Mark knows what I am talking about. Oh and stayhigh KMA YFN. Oh and thanks for responding Mark now maybe we can actualy fix this huh? P.S. Maybe you should tell them what you told me when you guys fucked up my rig so they know I wasn't making this shit up.

  21. The Toggles where made improperly and because of poor quality control I ended up with dangerous toggles that had to be replaced.The colors on my rig where wrong. They even called me BEFORE they built it to make sure and they still did it wrong. The also forgot my custom cut-away pillow and they went 3 weeks over. When I asked what they where going to do to make it right they instead put the heat on someone else to have me shut up. I did not nor do I wish to cause problems for that person so I am not going to share more of that story but it was total chicken shit. Hell I wouldn't even be posting this now if they would have just answered the pm's and sent me the magnet updates they are sending everyone else. When a re-call or service bulletin comes from any other industry the people shown as registered owners are notified. And as for other's staying out of it I don't need nor am I aksing for anyone else to fix it or try to excuse the poor customer service by attempting to be a smart ass. I can tell you before the sale they where great as is most people that want your money. The real test of a company is how they handle things when they fuck up. They fucked up and want to take no responsibillty. If something like this happens in my company I take care if it. The industry I am in is very small as is the skydiving community. I cannot afford to have a single upset customer. Maybe they have money falling from the sky and they don't care if they piss customers off.

  22. They are big boys let them respond. No one is whining. I have attempted to handle this in private. I am not quite sure your motivation for your post but bro you should probably stay out of it. I'm not bitching, calling them out is a more suitable term. There is an old saying about internet message boards. If you are going to live by the boards expect to die by the boards if you don't have your shit straight. Lastly your offer of money is a another strange re-mark. What was your reasoning for that? I don't expect anything from them except an apologie and a response as wel as the magnet Mod they have been sending out FREE. As a Vector owner who has registered his rig I should have been directly notified of the updates and I shouldn't have to stumble upon them on an internet site. So again Bro they ARE big boys who live by the boards so let them get their shit straight MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have.

  23. Amazing. No Response. I bought my Vector because of the SkyHook and Mr. Booths reputation even against quite a few folks suggestions. Almost from the very begining when they built my rig they acted as if it was an inconvienace to THEM to fix my problems. Mark even said if I bitched enough he would have to re-build my rig because of their fuck up. Then the first jump the toggles hang up and luckly I wasn't some low time jumper who didn't panic and chop it. Mark again acted like this was an inconvieance to him to replace them. After all these issues i asked Mr. Booth and Mark what they where going to do to make this right as the terrible customer service I had been getting was a very poor reflection on their buisness and for somene that just spent several thousand dollars on their equipment I should NEVER had been treated that way. ya want to know wat they did? I'll tell that part of the story next but hopefully they take a Clue for L&Bs customer service and fucking fix this pissed off customer. I know of 3 folks that DIDN'T buy a vector because of the way i was treated and will continue to make sure no one I know buys one until they man up and apologies and fix their customer service.

  24. Yes but today Cabela's was stocked to the gils with .223's so we picked up another brick. They only had a few boxes a couple weeks ago We've been buying bricks of 9mm each month and now that I have a new .223 AR to go with the 9mm AR and a new .38 airlight S&W for the wifes conceal gun we have more ammo to stock up on At least prices haven't gone through the roof yet for the ammo. Just wait until they try to put serial numbers on them. You better buy them now MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have.
