I spent a lot of time swooping on a sabre2 170, its not the wing its tthe pilot... the sabre 2 allowed me to learn how to ease out the fronts instead of dropping them, learn accuracy concepts in swooping and not fuck up my back smacking into the raft during the raft round of the swoop meet... so try the same size...I love my Xfire2 I think it is a good move, but I tried the same size first....and then downsized...

altough aggie did make fun of me for berating a cop I am totally with him on this one... in fact I usually wind up and wound up on double fronts on the canopies I am flying currently and the sabre 2s I was flying previously but it is not to keep my from hi-jacking it is to keep building speed once I am on line and to stop oversteer have you considered canopy coaching? It does make a huge difference to have some oen spend a day with you and work on your set up and turns...

Germain got me landing on my rears early this spring..he said it was hooking for rears... I have been using em since (except when I need to bail which is somewhat rare these days) and it really changed my distance :-) Dave try it, it is something you need to do anyway. try it on the canopy you are used to. landing with rears is not a big deal, it is more a big deal in your head. kinda like when you did your first low hop and pop.

when i had a simlar question I went to my s&TA he said "you are ready" and then followed it up with"why the fuck di dyou ask me that are you nervous" so two sides to taht are...if you have to ask...you might not be ready...but then ask you might be ready ...but talk to your local canopy geeks...

Aye... the truth of the matter is that this guy was actually an asshole and I gave him back what he gave... if he had been nice from the get go about the total crap that he was harrassing me abotu I would have been nothing but respectful... but he wasnt and for no good reason...so WITH good reason I called him an asshole....and then when he felt small cause I called him an asshole and threatened me...I threatened him right back...and by the fact that he left without so much as a parting shot he got the point 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.

actually I come from a very poor family...the truth was this guy was pulling a douche move and was an asshole about it...maybe I left the asshole part out of it... and no I wasnt a brat I had to work for everythign I have and one of those things is not getting my civil libertys treaded on by a douchebag... btw that douchebag got fired anyway cause he fucked with someone else and they actually went after him truth be told I like most of the cops I meet, this one went out of his way to be an asshole and I gave it back to him tenfold...does that make me an asshole perhaps... but in truth he deserved what he got 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.

you need to stop being a jerk... women eat that shit up... start being really nice to them and telling them how beautiful they are and generally be that guy that they can always count on to be there when they need help... I assure you this will stop all these women from throwing themselves at you. now that is some of the funniest shit I have heard in a while D 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.

...just makes you sound like a cunt as its irrelevant and unneccesary. If you spoke to me like that you'd have been nicked. Then you have a very sad empty life. now in a large majority of instances I treat the authorities with nothing but respect, having a lot of police officers as friends I realize that they have a hella hard job... but if I am being harassed for no apparant reason (in this case I had even checked twice before skating across the road) then I think it is in my right to get angry... I have even had police scream at me for doing somethign really dumb (which I knew I was wrong for) and I took it because I deserved it, but when they are fishing for something that I am not doing...and harassing me cause they are bored at 2AM in the morning...then they can get screamed down, and in that town....people will lose their jobs if they fuck with me (and if I do somethign wrong once again I will take it or at least hire a lawyer and do it properly) and thats just how it is... so in closing I take responsibility for my actions but if someone is being a douche no matter if police or not they get a pretty nasty tounge lashing 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.

and then there was that night when the cop tried to throw the book at me for skateboarding across a deserted main street in a country town at 2AM in the morning...he tried that is when I snapped it went somethign like this Me - hey your job is to protect and serve not to be a fucking asshole Cop - well you knwo I can take you down to the station right now Me - I dare you you pulled over the wrong fucking guy I make like 3 times what you make and will personally make it my job to ruin your life, and in addition to that I know like 2/3rds of your co workers you fucking asshole... Cop - you knwo I can get you for Criminal MIschief... ME- take me down to the barracks right now and let me talk to your seargant, who btw I happen to have know for 10 years you stinky fucker...do it I dare you Cop gets in car and leaves it was the best moment of my life...

this is a situation where I would have broken out the big balls see when cops treat me like that I get my lawyer on the phone slyly and then antagonize them...

Digging or not? What makes the difference?

is that the one like looks kinda like a really deep carve except that you had to do it to keep yourself out of the ground??? 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. -
I hope so. It still goes back to my belief that we should all compete together; however, there should be some fairness. I load my Velo 120 at around 2.3:1 with no weight beyond what God, some pizza and beer, gave me. Now I have a guy (or girl) jumping a Velo/VX/Xaos/JVX/Whatever 70 with 30lbs of lead to get a 2.2:1 wingloading. They could most definately beat me by outflying me (not hard), BUT they are still at a distinct disadvantage. Seperating the sexes for full competition isn't the answer, but leveling the playing field would be good so we could all still compete together. Even if that's seperated by weight classes. Light weight, Heavy weight and Unlimited classes would be fun. I think a decent majority would jump in the unlimited class, though. see now this idea intrigues me... I like it, I would help set up this event as well as a ladies swooping event 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.
