  1. I'm looking for some pictures of this last skyfest - anyone have some? thanks .:skip
  2. There will be plenty of Shiner going around. I will personally be bringing a case or two on Saturday night along with the schwag for the SCR ceremony. Things are looking good for this weekend – mighty good. Ill be out today after work for a jump or two and to try and get my B-License stuff squared away. Half day tomorrow, my girlfriend is aware that if she wants to see me this weekend she is going to have to come out to spaceland, and well its skyfest time!! neil
  3. I'm not an AD expert or anythign but I admin AD all day long - what is it you need help with? feel free to PM. .:skip
  4. I will be there - looking foreward to lots of new parachuting experiances. I will also be on the recieving end of "the worlds largest SCR Ceremony". .:skip
  5. I may be intrested in staying one night - I live 30 miniutes away but might want a (comfortable) place to stay one night so that I can enjoy myself. PM me prices and any other details and I will ponder it over. thanks .:skip
  6. Nice Picture - congrats Jim...
  7. I will be there on Saturday and Sunday. Hope this rain lets up. .:skip
  8. God I would love to see Steve Earle. I've been eating up all of his work the last few months - just waiting for him to do some shows. .:skip
  9. Anyone jumping at Spaceland on Wednesday afternoon – evening? Does anyone know if loads ever make on Wednesdays at Spaceland? With the time change and the new season a mid week jump or two sounds awesome. Ill be there around 5ish and hope to make a load or two. .:skip
  10. awsome, thanks guys. .:skip
  11. I remember a company that was selling prescription Google and had a few they recommended for skydiving. Does anyone know this company or any other I can get a pair from? Almost lost a contact today and would like to have a pair of script goggles stashed away just incase this ever happens. Thanks .:skip
  12. I am indeed playing it and it kicks ass. Let me know where your playing and we could hook up. .:skip
  13. yes- its a shame. I saw the Dead Milkmen maybe 11 years ago and I have been since waiting for a "reunion tour". Oh well - .:skip
  14. Exactly – to take it further, if dying was all about fate we might as well just abolish any sort of skydiving training, be it tandem, static line, AFF (or any hybrid of) – and just throw people out for there first time solo, with no instructor – well because if it’s there time its there time. I just think education out weighs fate when jumping out of airplanes. .:skip
  15. I agree - this answer is just wrong. It speculates that there is nothign we can do as a skydivers to make our jumps safer and possibly save our ass in eye of a life threatining situation. .:skip
  16. The top toggle keeper on my left riser is splitting and is frayed about half way up, is this somethign a local rigger can fix (just sew a new one on) or do the risers need to be replaced? thanks .:skip

    I'm going to...

    hey slap, let us know how it goes; I also have not jumped in a long time and probably wont for atleas a few more months. have fun dude. .:skip
  19. Naw Naw, thanks for the concern but I'm not interested in this specific container just had never seen "dynamic corners" before. I have been thinking about ordering a new container but it would be sized respectfully for my current rigs guts.
  20. Laughed my ass off. Very funny. .:skip
  21. I was looking through today’s new classified and saw this JAV for sale with what is described as dynamic corners, looking at the picture the main trays bottom flap seams to almost completely open up and lay flat. Is this the said dynamic corners, am I seeing things? One of the things I don’t like about my JAV is that when I put the bag in the tray and then push (twist) it down into place I do not know what is happening to my line stows. From what I think I am seeing on this container that would be eliminated by just folding the bottom flap up on the already in place bag. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/classifieds/jump.cgi?ID=5144&view=Image&d=1 So what’s the deal with that main tray, does it work out well? Thanks for de info. .:skip
  22. I enjoyed it. Great for non skydive days with the wuffo girlfriend. .:skip
