  1. See attachment in the first post of this thread: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_flat;post=4147927;

  3. Very true. Didn't mean to hijack this thread either. Back to the actual photo.
  4. Never said they were. My point is whoever posted this image did not do so for commercial gain, hence no copyright infringement.
  5. Seems to me this would fall under fair use and not copyright infringement. No one in this thread is making money off of it and it is for educational purposes. Now if someone were to copy this image and sell the crap out of it, different situation entirely.
  6. Scenario B still doesn't address horizontal separation. What happens if a jumper from the second (belly) group has a malfunction? It would really suck to have a mal and cutaway with a FF group directly below you.
  7. Vertical Suits is having a huge stock suit sale. They've been releasing one or two suits a day on their facebook page. If you need something quick... http://www.facebook.com/verticalsuits ETA: I LOVE my Vertical Suit
  8. Hey everyone, Does anyone have any experience with the Cookie rail mount for the ContourHD? http://www.cookiecomposites.com/shop/Accessories/93/index.htm Looks like a simple mount to easily add and remove a Contour. If anyone has any feedback regarding construction quality, durability and other pros/cons, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
  9. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Bv_NqiT7pM Here's the thread: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_flat;post=3645850;page=1;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;mh=25;
  10. this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxCLmNOEb7A
  11. I have a v310 with a PDR 143 and Sabre 150 main (even fit my 170 in there for a few jumps). I haven't had any issues getting the main in there. I can send you some pictures if your curious how bulky it would be. As far as PDR vs. Optimum flight characteristics go, I have not flown either one
  12. Does anyone have an English streaming video for the WC? The only one I've found that I don't have to pay for is in the Middle East http://2010worldcuplivestream.blogspot.com/2010/06/world-cup-2010-south-africa-vs-mexico.html Edit: Nevermind, they have all kinds of languages, just needed to scroll down!
  13. Agreed! Bought a Cypres2 from him a couple of months ago. Very quick service, definitely no complaints.
  14. Pop quiz, hotshot. There's a bomb on a bus. Once the bus goes 50 miles an hour, the bomb is armed. If it drops below 50, it blows up. What do you do? What do you do? Sorry couldn't resist Awesome movie!

  16. Has not been confirmed by the Patriots, but there have been numerous reports that he is out for the season. He's getting an MRI today and we'll probably know after that if he's done for the year or not. I also heard the Patriots are flying in QB's to fill in the position. Names being tossed were Chris Sims and Daunte Culpepper. Really unfortunate for last years MVP.
  17. From your photo it looks like a Vector 2. I currently jump the same container built in '95 and would definitely not recommend it for freeflying. Way to much bridle exposure, minimal main pin protection, and velcro riser covers (can't really tell from the pic, but mine are velcro) are some major issues. I'd look into a different container if you plan on freeflying.
  18. Price on a new setup is the biggest factor. When I downsize in a few years, I'll still be able to put that canopy into the same container with the way I'm going. I don't plan any more down sizes after that, at least for quite some time. Gotcha...well no matter which way you go, I guarantee that you'll fall in love with your first rig. Good luck!
  19. If the price is such a big factor, why are you not going used? You're probably gonna want to downsize in the next couple years anyway.
  20. 'On the Turning Away' and 'Learning to Fly' ...my two favorites
  21. play stairway to heaven backwards and the devil will talk to you
  22. Z-hills...was there for the Christmas/New Years boogie and had a blast
  23. I think this new series of the Batman movies with Christian Bale will be amazing.
  24. I have a wireless adapter for my PC. The one you bought should come with some software that will allow you to view and choose available wireless networks. Instead of xp controlling the wireless network connection, the software package will be in control of the wireless network.
