  1. How about keeping back the air with higher pressure under the wing flow over the top skin on the side and making wingtip vortexes too? wow did you really just tell the guy from atair canopies about canopy design... I have one word for that SUPER Dave http://www.skyjunky.com CSpenceFLY - I can't believe the number of people willing to bet their life on someone else doing the right thing.
  2. I am all for fair prices... but there is so much unneccesairy bullshit that goes on in the medical world these days like the guy that walks into room and says oh you need an orthopedist gets 600 bucks? How does that make sense a box of tissues costs how much man??? yet the will call them mucus removal devices as tissues cant be charged for... and one more thing 3000 dollars for 20 minutes of your time is a bit extreme. Its not the doctors that I dispise its the system that they are a part of Dave http://www.skyjunky.com CSpenceFLY - I can't believe the number of people willing to bet their life on someone else doing the right thing.
  3. yeah I quit recently about a month and a half ago but I did quit two years ago for 9 months and then slipped it was a rapid decline and then I couldnt quit again without going crazy and wanting to hurt people Dave http://www.skyjunky.com CSpenceFLY - I can't believe the number of people willing to bet their life on someone else doing the right thing.

  5. its called a bunch of greedy ass doctors... I foregot to mention the $15000 price tag on my ankle so that makes me the 0.015 million dollar man right now Dave http://www.skyjunky.com CSpenceFLY - I can't believe the number of people willing to bet their life on someone else doing the right thing.
  6. I was doing 180s at the first attempt at the pond swooping meet at the ranch this year... it worked pretty damn well for me... Dave http://www.skyjunky.com CSpenceFLY - I can't believe the number of people willing to bet their life on someone else doing the right thing.
  7. What? Instead of creating a situation in which you're basically warping the canopy with opposite riser inputs why not adjust the overall rate of turn with a little better control on the front riser and then harness inputs to adjust the minor stuff? The harness inputs effect the opposite side of the canopy more evenly instead of twisting your wing even more then it is. hmmm I was talking opposite front riser...I do my turns with both front risers is that considered non cool these days? so if you started turn with one riser and then applied other riser to slow down turn and work getting on line? this is bad?

  8. if you are talking about front riser turns, try slowing down the crossfire 2 turn by applying the opposite riser man...that is what I do and kinda do a big carving turn with the xfire2 and get some nice swoops with it never flew the 1 but from what my friends say it is a hella fun canopy Dave http://www.skyjunky.com CSpenceFLY - I can't believe the number of people willing to bet their life on someone else doing the right thing.

  22. It hurts to be a swooper.... but it hurts so good...but the first month of having 3 bulging discs cause you collided with the raft at the ranch pond swooping meet cause you had waaaaaay too much speed...sucks ass... so I will say one more thing then shut up... you have the rest of your lives to skydive...and I am sure I will be seeing you out on some courses shredding it up in the future...just get coaching...even if you are the next jeffro...it always helps to put some extra tools from people who have seen the shit hit the fan a few more times than you... Dave PS I think i owe Brian Germain a bottle..cause the shit he put in my tool box is like a reserve man...it has saved my ass soooooo many times and from it learned how not to be there... http://www.skyjunky.com CSpenceFLY - I can't believe the number of people willing to bet their life on someone else doing the right thing.
  23. I told that to you a couple of times before I gave up. But in case something has miraculously changed in your attitude and you really want to learn - I can tell that again: the way you were flying your spectre is not only dangerous - it is also ineffective. So start listening and learning. Although I doubt this going to happen before you hurt yourself. My only wish - don't get hurt too bad. (not towards Luis) I remember saying that I was different... I remember everyone telling me not to do what I was doing and that I was dangerous... I also remember the really really long last second before I bounced off the ground and I remember every though I have in that second as everything slowed down to a halt... I got lucky I only put a 10 inch spiral in my fibula....I got really lucky... the people that are telling you things are only trying to prolong yoru skydiving career...they are not trying to tell you that you are less than...some of us have even been *GASP* in your shoes...chomping at the bit to be the next cool swooper guy...some of us have even lived long enough to know when to shut up and listen... my advice... Luis is looking out for you one last time... call brian germain or scott miller or the hot canopy coach from you country and pay him whatever amount of money it will take for him to come visit you for like 4 days...and for god sakes listen to him...cause you already have told like 4 pro swoopers that they dont know shit... take the cotton out of your ears and shove it down your throught...we are only trying to save you from making the same mistakes that we made already for you man...

  25. When I ran into Kevin Seconds from 7 Seconds and he was missing all of his teeth and looked pretty old...but was riding a BMX bike with a yo yo spinning off a free hand I realized that damn it I am going to follow his advice and stay young until I die.... and yes they call me junky around the office...
