0:6:2 A couple 2-ways, a 8-way hybrid with standers, a 6-way speed jump 3 belly with no jumpsuit and 3 freefliers. First jump on rig, first hybrid 3rd rear riser landings after the knot that holds the toggle to the steering line passed throught the ring on the risers and would no come back through so I couldn't use it. Uneventfull landing followed by a few deep breaths and some rigging work.

At that weight you should be able to get into a navagator canopy.

If you have already seen it leave now I don't care to hear about it I thought it was funny to those that have yet to read it. John Kerry visits a primary school and sits in on one of the classes, which is in the middle of a discussion on words and their meaning. The teacher asks Mr. Kerry if he would like to lead the discussion of the word "tragedy." So, the illustrious senator asks the class for an example of a "tragedy." One little boy stands up and offers: "If my best friend, who lives on a farm, is playing in the field and a runaway tractor comes along and knocks him dead, that would be a tragedy." "That's wrong," Kerry shouts. "That would be considered an accident." A little girl raises her hand: "If a school bus carrying 50 children drove over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a tragedy." "You are completely incorrect," shouts the senator. "That would be what we would consider a great loss." The room goes silent. No other children volunteer. Kerry searches the room. "Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?" Finally, at the back of the room, a small boy raises his hand. In a quiet voice, he says, "If a plane carrying the Senator John Kerry were struck by a missile and blown to smithereens, that would be a tragedy." "Fantastic!" exclaims Kerry. "You are absolutely right. Can you tell me why that would be a tragedy?" "Well," says the boy, "because it sure as hell wouldn't be a great loss, and it probably wouldn't be an accident!"

Yes "The pretty one" lol I did not know that was so, but cool.

I am a big guy now (255 Lbs) and was bigger during aff(325) that is dry weight not with gear on. We both used the Mt1-XX de-milled HALO rig made by Paraflite to go through AFF. I am still currently jumping one even after loosing 70lbs. A mt1-xx uses 370 f-111 type square foot canopies, they are the best option if you were like us starting out. I love mine as it was built like a tank rated at a max deployment speed of 170 knots which is in range for us fast fallers and a max suspended rating of 360 or 370 lbs. Most are retrofitted to use a FXC12000 AAD mounted on the left MLW attached to a dual pin reserve. It has a regular chest straps, a belly band, and adjustable leg straps that have snaps on them. The main is usually activated by ripcord from the outboard side of the right main lift web, but can by retrofitted to have a hip mounted ripcord, and a regular throw out pilot chute such as mind. It has snaps on the riser covers and is NOT free fly friendly. Mostly are flat packed to open well, but have been propacked also. The only thing I can say bad about the rig is the weight at 47lbs with a fxc installed a lower leg and back work out will be had after a day of stooping over in the plane and hauling it all over the dz. They can be found for under $1000 so you can get in the air while you work on loosing weight to get into a sport rig. Hope this helps as I have no clue how much you weigh, but for anyone that weighs over 250 this rig would work IMO. This is the only rig I have ever jumped and I have spent over a year studying it.

I know that I am a Super newbie but I think that this function is great. A non rsl riser hanging on after the rls riser has done it's job and opened the reserve has been my only hang up that I have found with the rsl system of thougt.

I say we get both kerry and bush drunk at the debate!

I know that you can make a jump onto your own property if the area is large and clear enough after the proper people are notified and it is legit. Right? So what makes an event a "event"?

It is cool I will upgrade JUST for the cool factor.

That is how I see it also. sub-terminal=your not hauling ass=less distance traveled.

USPA Should start something where if a skydiver was caught and verifed stealing they had all their license's revoked and blackballed at all USPA dropzones so they could not jump anymore. Along with a off the books ass whipin'! -

He is not president at least yet lol

Yea he appoligized but they payed/threatned that nation guard commander into comming back for an interview and saying that he mislead them with that report. Old danny boy even said "is it correct that YOU gave us that false information" he replied "yes i mislead you with it" They knew what they were doing when they aired the first report, but when the shit hit the fan they drug someone in there with freshly stuffed pockets to take some of the heat and then disappear.

How do you get a reserve out of the freebag and inflated while under a already normal canopy. With my low #s it seems to me that there is not enough speed to make it inflate. I know how to do a canopy transfer if I find a 2 out already inflated, and I can see how a streamer or a blown up canopy has enough speed to do it. Would you manually pull it out of the bag, then make quick turns(which would seem dangerous)to get it to inflate then transfer it?

I am a leader of a search and rescue dive team. The signal after surfacing and checking in is to give yourself one tap on the head with one hand. What is the deal with the "O''. Everyone Team that I have worked with uses the pat on the head. I wonder how it evolved from making the 2 handed "O'' to a pat on the head?
