    If you are talking about the big guy with wild hair, he is at z-hills again. I saw him there last weekend. -OK Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  11. I went from a Javelin with hip and chest rings to a Wings with just hip rings. I can tell you without a doubt that the Wings is MUCH more comfortable than the Javelin was. I was skeptical at first, but the people at Sunrise were right. If the hip ring is round and the harness is cut right, chest rings serve no purpose. -OK Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  12. I have a full back piece that he did a few years ago. It is on his site under mythology. It is the biggest most detailed black and grey dragon there. -OK Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana

  15. Listen dude, if you want to wear slip ons that is a personal thing between you and your loved ones. I don't think you should be anouncing it on a public forum I know what you mean though. I will need a drogue to fly with those two. Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana

  17. Come down to the hills and we can see if we can take you up on a 17 point 4-way just to beat out Angela Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  18. When I planned the dive I wanted to make it something with very small moves that would work. She flew inside center, I was OC, Kramer was point and Drew Zastrow was tail. We pulled out a sidebody exit and the points were as follows. Sidebody, Open accordion, Meeker, Star. We probably could have gotten a few more points if Angela had some lead on. We had a few fall rate problems at first. All in all it was an awesome skydive and I was happy to be a part of it. Keep up the good work gurlie! -OK Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  19. I don't disagree. I don't feel that men and women should be any different when it comes to FS. I do however think it gives women a stage to be seen, which I think is a healthy thing. I also feel that if there is a separate class, then the camera flyer should be female as well. That goes back to the discussion of whether or not the camera flyer is REALLY part of the team. That is a whole different discussion. I have spoken at length to Tony Hathaway about this one and he truly feels that the camera flyer is NOT a part of the team. His attitude is that as the camera flyer, you can only hurt the team by screwing up, but cannot help in any way. He also feels that the only reason the camera flyer was made "part of the team" after the 99 nationals was so that they would not have to give out rejumps if the camera flyer screwed up. All that being said, I still feel very strongly that if the FAI has a womens class, we should have and support a team. The USPA has done everything they can to stop this years team from going and prevent any teams from going in the future. Just my 2 cents. -OK Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  20. Although I don't believe that men are any better than women at formation skydiving, I do believe that the women's only 4-way category gives women a chance to be seen. The sport has been male dominated for so many years that very few women ever get the chance to show the airspeeds that they are good enough. Take Eliana for example, she is as good if not better than any man out there, but had she not been on the US womens team in Spain 2 years ago, I am not sure she would have gotten the recognition that she needed to be invited onto airspeed. The other point I would like to make is that at the world level, all of the other countries have a womens team. Therefor, whether we believe in the category or not, I feel VERY strongly that the US should be represented. The USPA which doesn't believe that there should be a womens FS category has done everything in their power to keep the US from having a womens team at the world meet this year and in the future. By the way Quade, this is the last year that womens teams will be allowed a male camera flyer. As of next year, they must be female as well. -OK Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana

  22. Actually, you don't need to be a rigger at all. As long as you are working for a manufacturer, anyone can sew harnesses or any other part of the container. Kinda scary huh? -OK Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
  23. Stick with Stacy's directions and you will save yourself major hassles. Just don't miss that Zephyrhills sign! (Not that I have ever done that) Look us up at the bomb squad corner this weekend. -OK Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana
