    My wife has 100 jumps and i lve to jump with her but she says she just doesnt get the buzz?? i think if she did more than 15 a year it would be a good start! She did some freefly training in Empuriabrava last year and i could not jump while she was up there the stress was to much.

    Head out of the DZ turn right at the roundabout and i think its the first on the left on the other side of the road is the nocking shop i have not sampled any of them but did sit in there till 6 am on day getting mashed on beer and watching all to much puntang in my face then there is a baggette bar round the corner that i had a bite to eat and many of the working girls were there then of to DZ for breakfast swim AKA a wash! Yes there is a couple of joints there with girls remember in europe life does not start till 2300hrs so pace yourself!!!

    Well i am now staying in a trailer called the peanut that is a whole 12 feet long!!! hope i dont fart in there! TK e mailed me and said give him my flight details and someone will be there for me, cool man! I just need a home now from the 4th April to 10th as im chucked out of the peanut. So next question is how far is the microtel or i might tent it but its kit security that worries me

    Lilo have some good staff and mostly brits who care for the students and work of good Brit standards. Empuribrava is a cool place i go there every year but you can feel lost sometimes in the spanish way of life but the instructors and kit ar top notch. Also you will find in Empuriabrava you will be talked to and welcomed as if your a jumper with thousands of jumps. But you wont go wrong at Lilo, Luci is a very cool chick wo will treat you welll

    I was not there last year as Herules Boogie was more important so might have been boring! but the year before it was cool with daily temp hiting 39C everyday but yes there is a lot of big way stuff and people that take life all to serious.

    Yes it is!! I have been to two of them, The first at the Lappalise DZ (there home) they had about seven planes going mad non stop good vibes and good time great place i go there every year. the last two boogies they have had the AN72 flying and that is a real machine that is about two thirds the size of a c130 with two f*** off jet engines on the wings. When the AN is in they move about ten miles away to Vichy airport that has a long runway. about 4-5 hundred jumpers there with mad parties!!!!!!! Go visit Europe and have a blast.[url]http://www.aeronautics.ru/archive/vvs/planes/antonov_an-72_1.jpg[url]

Any info would be great Thanks.

    Can anyone give me some detailed mounting ideas on this? dont know what to do still sat in its box!
  19. skydivebaz
    The picture will always be better as the more glass on your cam the less light gets in, and a picture or should i say "photograph" photo being light and graph being to write means without light there is no write. so yes without the extra glass thing will be better but that does not mean good. Take the human eye, the further away you are the less detail you can see. same for the lense.

    Hi all got all my bits now and need to start builing, any thoughts? The flash is going to be my biggest thing as want to put it up top with pc8 FTP 20D Sigma 15mm Speedlight 580EX
  21. skydivebaz
    if you have a sony DV cam take the tape out plug in scart lead to the an input turn outo record and plug in your Firewire and your cam should convert it on the fly straight through to your pc and just capture it

    I am just waiting for my FTP tp arrive from the US. I have my PC 8 and 20D with my sigma 15mm and was looking at getting the speedlight 580 so need some ideas! i like the look of yours on mounted on its side. Does the flash not need to have the infra red thingy in line of sight? and also looking at a 3 chip to put on top maybe the dcr hc 1000 as i dont like the pc8 sticking up .
