  1. Cool. If you interested in some great flocking, head north to see us in Lodi. Be safe Ed Yeah, so when is the next "event"?? Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  2. Well, it was team stuff back east. I said I was not sure but at least had that right! Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  3. I saw Andy at Eloy at the Holiday boogie. He was doing good and I think he said he was going to move east and do some team stuff back there. I think it was a player Coach thing but cant remember for your the specifics. As a guy from the Pacific NW and knowing him fro a long time, I wish him all the best! Scott C.

  4. back at you "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  5. Does that mean the porter as the jump ship?? Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  6. LOL, I thought that was funny when I frst got a set from Beeze and now have a couple of sets. Nice little set up.. I have used a number of the Hyper link sets and they are easy to install and work fine. I try/plan to change "slink" sets with a canopy reline.. I have heard of people (including myself) going much longer on a older set. I had a really worn home made set about 12 years ago that I had on for 1200 jumps or so. Did not seem to be in bad shape when I took them off either. But that said I guess the cost is miniml to change them every 5-600 jumps compared to others that can happen..
  7. I think this is a few pics of "Huck"
  8. Or maybe this.... Ludicrous Speed "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  9. Dont forget the Lotus from Big Air. It fits nicely into the catageory for the above canopies.. Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  10. Let us know about the ticket and boogie prices as I might be interested in coming down as well. I wanted to go to Z-flock but plane tickets and flight times are really bad to travel from the NW corner of the country so this might be another nice escape from the NW. Jumping Fri-Sun might work out well.... Now if you can just shame VB into going after all his texas smack that would be kind of funny.... Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  11. Billvon rigged something up with a small digital for a belly mount he made. I dont remember the details on it but you migth try and toss a note his way or search for it, I am just lazy today to not do it, sorry... I also dont remember if he just set it to fire on an interval or if it was on a trigger of some fashion... Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  12. With all the offensive posts you have made I was suprised that a turkey baster was not included in the choice list.... I was dissapointed I must say... Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"

    Glide ratio

    I think that the longer distances claimed are probably not as common as people think. The only real way to know is to have a measuring device like a GPS.. Not that anyone would embellish in this sport Now that that is said, I am sure I can easily go that far, yeah Thats the ticket, Hell, maybe I can go further and I dont want that GPS to bust the bubble of the happy lollypop land I live in...

  14. Well currently as I speak, a sub freezing weather front has moved into the normally comfy Pacafic NW and darn it if I dont have a meeting I have to attend this weekend for my company.... But, IMO, the back inlets dont seem to let anything "go" when on your belly. I have not noted any issues with inflating the wing right out the door or durring different flight angles. One thing I have noted is when on my back the leg wing is very noticable in the effectiveness of the inflation . It almost seems to inflate better on my back but take that opinion with a grain of salt as I am usually fighting just to stay somewhat stable while on my back as it is... Scott C.

  15. I agree, jsut accept the fate you have comming... Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  16. I have not noticed any performance on my "phacro" GREAT all around suit I must say! Also it is my understanding that you cant get back inlets and a base pouch. I wondered about this and after looking at my suit and another guys Phantom with a few other people decide it was because the location of the pouch would conflict with location of the back inlets. Not sure if this is teh gospel on that but that is the best we could figure. No need for the pouch on ta phantom as there is no real conflict with the wing and BOC pull.. Scott C.

  17. What, no pictures of the landing??? Scot C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  18. I had the same problem/dislike and got a BH Alti mount and it is on my MudFlap. Have had no problems since then and have been 100% happier then with alti on my wrist for WS jumps... I also have a audible Neptune on my helmet.. Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  19. Well this game is showing the largest spread at from -8.5 to -9.5 points for the bears. Seattle is not is good shape injury wise but the feeling is that they could beat the Bears even after getting slaughtered by them earlier this year. Should be a fun game to watch but I would be suprised if Seattle can win. I would love to see them win but I think the Bears have a better non-injury-ridden team..

  20. My money is on OSU but I need to score to be below 51 for the tiebreaker and the winner take all bowl pool to come my way tonight...
  21. good plan, very good fitness, high level of determination and lots of $ Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  22. I am having a need to replace my not so often used 18-55 Kit lens on a XT. I was looking and on E-bay the going rateis about mid $60's for a quick replacement but searching somemore finds a similar Sigma 18-50 (F 3.5) for about $100 and then a jump up from Sigma ~18-50mm (F2.8) Going to the cheaper Sigma might be a better replacement for the Kit lens and I am curious about opinions. I amguessing either Sigma has to be better then the kit lens. I searched and found a couple of references to the Sigma lens but not sure which sigma it is. This will be mostly a ground lens but probably could get some jumping for applications I dont want to go with my Sigma 15mm.. Any thoughts other then goingfor really expensive glass which I know is probably the best option if money was no object.... Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  23. What advantages are you looking to get out of the pharco?? Just curious why the change from the old to the new? As a side, I love my Pharco.. Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  24. That game was poorley palyed on both sides and I am shocked that one of the teams actually won... I live in and root for Seattle andthought they played hooribbly. dallas was not much better and if it was not for the misshandelingon Romo and a fantastic play to tackly him short of a TD and or a 1st down Dallas should ahve won the game... Oh well I will say a w is a w and see what happens next week.. Go Hawks maybe this will pull their head out of their butt and get them to play.. Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
