  1. There's been at least three threads on this subject in the last ten days. Use the Search Posts link near the top of this page and have a read...
  2. Absolutely no idea... I've only been jumping two and a half years, and she's been like that since I started. I'll be at the DZ this weekend, so I'll see if I can't find out more...
  3. http://www.skydivingmovies.com
  4. Sounds like a Safire2 would suit you nicely... is there any particular reason you're thinking of an XF2 instead?
  5. Yeah, but legal people with job options don't like getting up at 3am to commute for two hours downtown to clean offices for $6/hr.
  6. ...and if you have, I hope you've paid pimp money to Sangiro .
  7. If you could dig it out and let me know what issue it is, I'd love to order the back issue...
  8. Gold and navy Samurai. Frame grab.
  9. A step? Yup. Big enough to have a tea-party on...
  10. Not true. They respond with, "I read it on DZ.com", or , "I was told that by Clint". Exactly. And so they lose any credibility they might have had....
  11. Optima: helmet-mounted freefall & canopy audible alerts. Nothing else. Viso: wrist-mount digital alti and logbook.
  12. The video is absolutely hilarious. You look like a kid that's just had their ice cream stolen .
  13. It only takes one word to sort out these folks: "why?" Those that really know their subject will be able to go into depth on the reasons behind the way things are done.
  14. Ditto, though most seem to adjust the helmet so their chin sits below.
  15. Yup. Parents always worry about their kids; there doesn't seem to be a lot we can do about it...
  16. Do you remember the points? Bet you didn't do block 22 .
  17. I think sake works best with food, rather than as a drink on its own. I don't know enough to talk about the various types, but niigiro sake (unrefined sake) is delicious.
  18. This is a safer way of doing it. Having your hands out of your toggles isn't a great idea, because it reduces your maneuverability, and if someone else isn't paying attention you could end up in/near a canopy collision.
  19. I'm sure you know this, but for everyone else, it's worth noting that non-Signature-series Samurais are manufactured by PD.
