  1. I'm kinda between Nelson Mandela and the Dali Lama... t It's the year of the Pig.
  2. Yeah... What would you suggest? I ride them in to keep my numbers down? 7 from Tandem. (I don't own, pack or maintain the gear) 7 from Wraps or entanglements ( I spent years as a competition CReW dog) and 3 on high wing loading elipticals (out of 2600 dives on this type of gear t It's the year of the Pig.
  3. Where in Africa are you moving? Top, bottom or middle? I know most people. Tribe address is here t It's the year of the Pig.

    Not again.!

    There is the world's largest population of 3 legged sheep... t It's the year of the Pig.
  5. Yeah. Davis t It's the year of the Pig.
  6. Davis the DZ in California? Appointing Judges? For competition? t It's the year of the Pig.
  7. Don't try to miss your shadow when you land. That's cause 80% of the night jump injuries I've seen. Everyone laughs when they hear it - everyone shits themselves when they see it. Some even swaer at it. t It's the year of the Pig.
  8. ? t It's the year of the Pig.
  9. PM'ing you. t It's the year of the Pig.
  10. Without a doubt! 14 Feb 1987.. GF was on the 1st jump course - got femured just after thinking... LOOK AT MEEE! t It's the year of the Pig.
  11. Amazing what a difference a single s can make... t It's the year of the Pig.
  12. It is weird. Here's mine. 14 Feb 1985 - broken ankle 14 Feb 1987 - broken femur Of 17 cutaways - 5 have happened on 14 Feb, none resulting in injury. Been calm for several years now... t It's the year of the Pig.
  13. Me too. Really, really sad. But not as sad as the people attacking you for noticing what they think makes me. t It's the year of the Pig.
  14. And there are people who think I ride to work on a Zebra cos I live in Africa... And skydive off a giant kite... I don't think it should be common though, but I guess it is. That makes it tricky explaining how a good swoop works, eh? t It's the year of the Pig.
  15. Windtunnel Vs Skydiving Man Vs Woman? Nah. You can skydive anywhere. You can only tunnel at the tunnel. Men and women are near identical by comparison to Skydiving vs Tunnel. We both have arms, legs, body, head, nipples. All these 2 share is a prop. So it's more like a whole body vs a hand.. t It's the year of the Pig.
  16. Why was it ill fated? t It's the year of the Pig.
  17. Kinda like... Which is better. Tennis? or Steak? Mmm? t It's the year of the Pig.

    The incident you describe sounds like a user mal to me.. Had he not grabbed the pilot chute - all would have gone well. t It's the year of the Pig.
  19. You say... and Sounds to me that you've already made your division. "Flying" a wind tunnel is NOT skydiving. To say it is is to suggest that a memorized poem or verse is the ability to converse in a language. You can have 1000's of hours in the tunnel and not skydive. That would make you a whuffo. Nothing more, nothing less. I know it'll make you better at (insert practiced disipline here) but it won't make you a better skydiver. t It's the year of the Pig.
  20. As Troy points out in his article, It's NEVER outside the realm of posibility. There have been "unrequired" cypres fire's recorded as a result of radio transmission. I still think it's unlikely. t It's the year of the Pig.
  21. It's Russian, I think. Illyshin 26? t It's the year of the Pig.
  22. When they have tunnels that can teach you to track... I'm there. Until then - I'll skydive. t It's the year of the Pig.
