  1. Can you explain that a bit more? My simple mind is seeing a rig attached to a car going through a car wash....
  2. Man, I gotta say that's the most OCD list I've ever seen/heard of. Holy hell!! But at least you'll be well prepared..even though...after all this....you will without question get there and say "damn it, I forgot xxxx"... Have a killer time!
  3. I think it's retarded....get a sticker for some random place you've been? dumb! Great beach area but still....go into a store down there and it's loaded with this crap!!!
  4. Looks like a branch off from the standard k-pod of the military. Looks funky IMO, but some will like it.
  5. From another newbie's perspective.... I have a cypres and RSL....my RSL broke/malfunctioned/didn't work as advertised when I had my cutaway. I didn't rely on it and here I am. I was and am confident in my abilities to skydive safely. Would I jump without an AAD, yes I would. Do I prefer to jump with an AAD, yes I do. So if it was me in your situation, yes I would jump without the AAD and just rent the 190. But thats what I'd do if in that situation. Good luck with your decision.
  6. Ahhh..good question...I too am curious about part of your question: How will longer or shorter risers affect flight characteristics?
  7. Choose what makes your feel comfortable (male or female). I've had massages by both male and female and they were all great but the male was able to use more strength and apply more pressure at times. So depending on your needs, that's something to think about also. Enjoy it though!!! I just tried a hot stone massage and it was outstanding!!!
  8. Yup, Jim has two suits on site ALWAYS!!!
  9. So what dz.commers are coming this weekend? CASA arrives @ noon on Friday and stays through Monday.... So who's coming?????
  10. You could work more, perhaps at the DZ as a packer or manifest. That's how I paid for my training and gear, and jumping.
  11. What skydivers aren't ready for the weekend?
  12. That's what I was wondering. I'm doing water training this summer, but will just wait until I'm ready for my C. Is there an advantage in getting the B then C???
  13. Next time you in the neigborhood come check us out at Skydive the Point. Were in West Point VA. You past us to get to Suffolk. We had a PAC all weekend, and now a Super Otter for the summer. Suffolk does rock though. Some really cool people there! Glad you had a great time there.
  14. This is one of the best boogies of the year @ the Point (second only to the Halloween boogie) C-A-S-A!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  15. Hey, question for ya...are they still doing runway repairs @ Orange? How long until that's completed? I'm definitly heading up there soon to check it out. Heard great things about the people!
  16. I'm already signed up for that one!! Should be a blast!!! Ahhh..West Point...what was the point of this thread again? Other than come to WP to jump?????
  17. YES!!! WP WILL RULE THE WORLD!!!!
  18. My most profound apologies! My intentions were good
  19. Hell, not just Rob G---all of us!!!
  20. You know....perhaps you two could run on down for the Memorial Day Boogie. We start jumping friday at noon and go till dark Monday..and to tempt you a little...C-A-S-A!!! There will also be plenty of organizers (as if Carol Clay wasn't enough)...BEER TRUCK!!!
  21. There's Friday jumping @ West Point (maybe an hour south). We have the PAC 750 starting @ 1pm through the weekend!!!
  22. Ha! Your lucky...they stamped it on my forhead after the card!!! Took a long time to wash it off the next day...
  23. Website says June 2006 now for the VISO, or as I checked last week.
