I hate to kiss and tell I call bullshit, all skydivers kiss and tell.... Would do but I'm a brit, be a gent and all that ... hmm Im liking brits then.... Also made some real emabressing choices over the years, a chap doesn't like to chat about that kinda thing was she really a he? God i WISH I was that lucky. oh wow, worse then the she being a he? poor poor animals... I hope they evacuated the zoo in time mumble, muble, something about a horse's mouth but without a sugar lump to hand... I thought that was customary for your brits? Are you wearing a stetson (and a smile)? hmmm whats a stetson? I have the smile down but not sure what a stetson is and how do I wear him? I mean one Thought a Stetson was a type of hat you shermans wear when you are killing stuff.. like Iraqis etc... lol ohhh you mean a cowboy hat? Nah thats just when we are scalping indians ... sudsyfist is gonna beat me now .... THAT WAS A JOKE PEOPLE , in poor taste I know I know And thats whya your cool.

Chris, I agree with everything you have stated here. Unfortunately in fact, PD had not made a Velocity under 75 sq ft whe I decided to purchase one over 3 years back. This put me at a 1.7 WL, however I had flown my safire109 for over 500 jumps and learned to front riser and 'hook' 180's to the best of my ability at this point. No doubt I could have gotten more performance out of a higher WL, but for what it's worth, 1.7 taught me a lot in transition from a slightly elliptical to a full x-braced canopy. It was a good transition to a 2.1 which I am flying now. However, I had the exact same question Viking asked in reply to her 1st post, I was just too weenie to ask. If I had a choice in parachute, it would be the Velo hands down. Just wish I was fatter... for wingloading's sake at least _______________________ aerialkinetics.com -

LOL, I love it! Only base jumpers would take "Ya'll crazy fucks" as 'kind words.' _______________________ aerialkinetics.com

So far, Mari's gash... Opportunity to be lazy, no hiking. Just high enough to possibly do something silly, a flippy, or a wee stowed delay. Great view. I'm sure you guys have cooler ones, I'm just not familiar with many of them

Hahahaha!!! You guys are hilarious Dang we all need to get together for some more storytelling time. 460 came by Zen's last night and brought some old BASE mags and pictures (I think you're in a couple walt) and it was totally rad seeing the Texas Commerce on the cover of the base magazine. Ya'll crazy fucks. _______________________ aerialkinetics.com

Devil's advocate here... I do it. Only because I want to be cool like TJ Langdren ;) But I have limits. I don't do it with other canopies in the air. Only on hop n' pops, and I do a lot of those. I put on the trance or fav tunes and really enjoy being in 'the zone' under canopy. But wouldn't recommend for use under normal circumstances or fairly low jump numbers because then it can be a distraction. For me its not a distraction, its enhancing the experience and relaxing without losing the focus. _______________________ aerialkinetics.com

Never posted to this thread before, but here goes High: Knowing I am loved and alive. Low: Not knowing how to get there considering my wrecked truck. _______________________ aerialkinetics.com

Ugh, correction, its absolutely totalled. Too bad I don't have pics, it was pretty amazing walking away from that without a scratch. _______________________ aerialkinetics.com

LMAO!! Perfect! In all actuality, I went out today to the Toyota dealership, I really loved the Matrix I drove... but damn financing it would be so tough right now. I'm pretty sold on the Toyotas, so it was a toss up b/w the Matrix and Rav4. There's a bunch of stuff out there so I'm going to take my time and find the right deal. Mr. Rich, Thanks for the offer, I'm borrowing my folk's car though until I figure out what to do _______________________ aerialkinetics.com

Hmm, nice guys thanks for the info. Now looking at the Mazda and Matrix... _______________________ aerialkinetics.com

Man, you guys are going to con me into getting a truck again. Well, I just know I'm fucked right now lol... I wish the insurance company would give me a break, stop calling and ending the conversation with "have a nice day." Woe is me Wah. _______________________ aerialkinetics.com

Good ideas... I've never been a big fan of those, but they are practical. _______________________ aerialkinetics.com

Your assumption is correct. Ugh, I went from 60 to 0 in nothing flat in more ways than 1. I'm so confused on what to do! Thanks for your suggestion though, I will keep my eyes open. _______________________ aerialkinetics.com
