Did you go over to the Dark Side? ! "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return." -
Me too! Then I found out people actually do use vowels. Changed my life forever!

Uh... What happened in Byron this passed week end? I wish i had been invited. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Well, that's democracy. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Like that ever stopped you before. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

What's happening in Byron? "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

I just creamed my jeans at the thought of such event. You are a true romantic, my friend. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Dropped a toggle during landing
Frenchy68 replied to HydroGuy's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
That's how I do it, except I keep the line running between my index and middle finger. What altitude do you do so? That's how i usually hold the toggles after i get my slider collapsed, etc... It's pretty much impossible to drop it that way, and I won't get my hands stuck either. So I assume you do so pretty high. How about if you have to chop your main?

Frenchy68 replied to HydroGuy's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I read an article in a magazine, written by an experienced jumper who, prior to starting his manoeuvre (around 1000ft AGL for him), brings his toggles around his wrists, with the brake line running through his palm (between his thumb and index finger). Anyone else doing this? "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return." -
4 helicopter jumps 1 busted 4 way belly down 45 freefly jumps. Gotta start working on that belly thing... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

That's how ancient Greeks used to measure assloading. "PI" in ancient Greek literally means "Ass". That's where the expression "Having a piece of PI" comes from.

What is a Ugo? Damn right. That's why we built New Orleans. Develop... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Much like "slam dunking" "intelligence" reports.

Trust me, most "set parties" are always worth attending... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

I agree. So very true. I wouldn't know, but maybe... Good point. The 'shelter's strength is also its weakness. Because there are so many "regulars", it may seem hard at times for visiting skydivers to blend in. I'll make sure you enjoy your "post jumping" experience more next time you are around. But overall, you are asking questions which I have been pondering for the past 12 months or so (non-skydiving related). Not quite sure what the answers are, but am about to act up on what I think/feel the (my) remedy is.
