  1. I noted teh same thing on my XT the other month. Not on pics so I was not going to worry. I am thinking it is on the mirror up to the eyepeice and I am too lazy to clean it, though I really should to see if I am right.. Scott "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  2. It is not Blue and Black but is will give an idea on a Wings.. Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  3. http://www.dropzone.com/dropzone/North_America/Canada/British_Columbia/index.html http://www.dropzone.com/dropzone/North_America/United_States/Washington/index.html Dont know a huge amount about the North of the border DZ's but have jumped at Kamloops but that is probably a bit far. Hear good things about Pitt Meadows (Pacific Skydivers) and Abbotsford (Skydive Vancouver ). Nice people at Chilliwack as well. Closest US DZ would be NW Skydivers.. Just opened up for business. Next closest is Snohomish then Blue Skies Skydiving near Bremerton and then Kapowsin in Shelton. They are noted in general order of distance from the border..

  4. How do you read that, you dork?! I said I'm NOT gay! Well I do read what I want and there is a "That" in the sentence so obviously you just mis typed and what you meant to type was: " ... I'm not THAT gay"
  5. OK. I did not see this thread going that direction but since she opened the door... Jaye, so your basically saying that your not against a little "girl on girl" action now and then????? Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"

  7. Sent a mail off to them and got this in return! Hello Scott, Yes, we are on again, the 39th, May 19-22. PD and Aerodyne are coming with demos and load organizers. Red Bull with free drinks. Kapowsin Otter and a local helicopter. Camping the same. Food/drinks at night at the Flying Club on the airport. Food/drinks at the dz during the day. Prices the same or maybe a little lower. We're doing the math. Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions. Cya, Nick Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  8. Are they not doing the May Meet this year??? I went to the website to try and track down dates a number of months ago and they had the 2005 information. I went back again this morning, since it is now May, and they still have the 2005 meet information? Anybody know the scoop? I will fire off an E-mail but am curious if anybody knows... Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  9. Skyleague Story edited to add, NO VIDEO POSTED so it did not happen! "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"

  15. Shit, maybe that is just a regional term... I have had a few people over the years ask what the hell an uck buddy is.... Fuck Buddy: a person you have sex with but with no serious relationship. Need sex call your buddy. Cant say fuck in public with out annopying some one, stupid PC world, so drop the F and get uck .. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  16. LOL, me smart how can you possible confuse lazy with smart????? No ur right I should really make one up... I am sending this one back.. They wrote me and are sending one to replace it... smart, you really you must be thinking of someone else... Scott C. I will track those pics down you noted "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  17. well the smart thing is to be honest and call it what it was.. Then you can ask: Hey, do you mind if we can be "uck buddy's" Hell you know how it goes, we all need a release now and then not provided by ourselves.." See how it goes from there.. OH WAIT WHAT ABOUT THIS>>> Maybe you tell her the truth and she says something to the effect that she agrees and that it really was not a good idea but NO really you were well "good" yeah that is it good... But no thanks on the Uck Buddy thing it is only your ego! Right now your on top, open up tell the truth and spread your legs so she has a clean shot to kick the dangly bits, it will make her feel better Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  18. OK, OK... I said it sucks not they suck or the switch sucks. Though the switch I HAVE sucks I sent them a mail to find out what to do.. Yeah I know things break but I hate when that bastard "Murphy" sticks his head in and it breaks at the wrong time that is what gets me. I guess there never is a right time but some times are better then others Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"

  21. OK, STUUUUUUUUPID broken search function, or I probably could have found this already. I have a Conceptus toung switch that caused me a huge hassel this weekend. Probably under 50 jumps on it and the stupid this started acting intermittently and by the end of Sat was completely usless... IT SUCKS... Is the bite switch better?? I am shooting a XT and have been going fne with the switch on still jumps. Does Conceptus show any love in a situation like this?? I was VERY UNHAPPY this weekend as it was a problem Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  22. What she said...... I am havingtghe same problem, who is to blame?? Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  23. You might be better off fashioning a bracket for a few $ from Home Dpot then the plan you noted. Those things get HOT.. I have only used a heel bracket when I jump smoke and it does well in protecting my foot/leg and giving a solid attachment point for the smoke can. Also easy reach to "pop" the smoke if your planning on using it under canopy Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  24. To avoid going to a store just Order a new one on line Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
  25. The big advantage to an IAD method is really seen with small DZ's where student gear might be limited. Also you dont have to swap bags or add a PC. Freefall set up and IAD deployment set up is the same. Basically the rig is ready to go for either once packed. I think the question as to where to put the PC? It can go in a BOC, ROL or (I have not seen this in person) another easily acdcesable pouch for the instructor. Mind you the 3rd option would be a packing difference between Freefall and IAD. When I was at a DZ a number of years ago that did IAD, we used a ROL. That was picked so when the students went to FF they could "See" the handle in the Arch Look Reach Pull sequence. I think you could put it anywhere for easy instructior access though. Once the Instructor has the PC, he wants to only have enough bridle out as needed. I guess the question could have been more "Where is the PC with an Exit?" In this case I would have the PC in my hand on top of the main tray of the student. I have one foot out of the plane and "follow" them out so I dont have loose bridle flopping around. When the student exits and depending on the jump I can do a few different things: 1st jump example: I can hold the PC to bridle streach or hold it till canopy is comming out of bag. Kinda like short lining with a S/L PRCP example: I can extend the time to cnopy by having the PC go with the student. Forceful toss down to prevent the PC from comming up and towards the tail. This can be adjusted timming wise to get the canopy out slightly slower to faster. Hope that helps, Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"
