I just signed up for a course here in Kentucky through the YMCA - they will give me my open water for +/- $420 - gear provided. The local dive shop doesn't provide gear, and is the same price. Then I find out why - the local YMCA guy cancels class - tells me too few people is interested and postpones it to september. IS there anyone in the Kentucky Area that can instruct me through to becoming at least a DiveMaster? I would love to find a mentor/buddy rather than a money hungry shop or lazy instructor! Anyhow, I look forward to joining you all soon! --------------------------------------------- As jy dom is moet jy bloei!

Am I just stupid? I'm not finding a pic of the fullface? I ordered a ACE Water a few days ago. Mostly for Kayaking, but also jumping and eventually some BASE activity if it fits and protects well. I love Protec - Cheap, and they do the job! --------------------------------------------- As jy dom is moet jy bloei!

I am in the same boat here, but with many less jumps. I talked to people and they said it would be allright if I get my numbers up before october, focusing on training for BASE. I intend to continue my BASE career, but much later, after I have about 200 jumps. I see this as an opportunity to learn a LOT about BASE jumping, which I can then apply to my skydiving to eventually apply it to my BASE career. follow me?

Beautiful Mate, I wish I was you. Soon enough I will be out there with you all. Be safe and have fun. --------------------------------------------- As jy dom is moet jy bloei!

I dunno about that....I think he is turning onto crosswind, across the runway. - Look at runway 22 at the bottom left. Now look at the other runway visible in the far right window as well as the one left of it. THat should be runway 30. Thats a steepass approach! I also think that those dials aren't all altis. In modern cockpits like those with Multi-function displays, the altitude would definately be on the Display, with a backup somewhere. You can have my two cents. --------------------------------------------- As jy dom is moet jy bloei!

I see where you are coming from, but I thought I could do it without adding too much. If it doesn't ruin the potato, you can re-use the same potato over and over. (Side note. My thoughts is: A potato is the best to launch, as it contains water that lubricates the sides as well as adding weight. It is also the best density. i.e., a tomato would'nt work.) Attaching the lines to the potato - I could core the potato, adding a washer that is bigger than the corehole on the other side. The parachute can then be packed up on top of the potato. If the potato turns around in flight, where the parachute (still packed) is on the trailing end, it will still be ok, or even better. I don't quite see the use in making the potato more mechanical for balistic stability, although it would be cool to play with. Thanks for your help cococococnut --------------------------------------------- As jy dom is moet jy bloei!

Believe it or not, I saw a potato gun for the first time today. I thought that it would go 50 yards, but it went at least tripple that. So tommorow i'm building my own. Building the gun is no problem,(http://platinumchromatography.com/potato.htm - but I have another problem. I have a 2.5 foot round, used to keep old south african military flares in the sky. It has 8 lines, each about 2 feet long. I want to attach it to the potato and make it deploy at altitude. #1 - How do I attach the chute to the potato? #2 - How do I make it deploy at altitude? ( I could use time delay with a string or something, but that isn't guaranteed altitude, it might deploy pre-maturely. SO ALL YOU ALL CAN HELP ME WITH IDEAS HERE.
