  1. Don't get me wrong guys.. The birdman suit is TONS of fun.. I was at 10,000 watching the tandems open below me. I flew circles around the airport.. 2 minute plus freefall.. Amazing forward speed.. EXTREMELY slow speed openings.. Just make sure you have practiced your emergency procedures time and time again.. Know how to cut the wings away.. Pull REALLY high say 7 grand the first time just to get familiar with everything. Have fun and be safe!! I will be purchasing a birdman suit soon!! IT was that cool!

  2. I could see Hook flying a 49 soon.. That would be cool to watch.. Only he would have to land on the runway!! ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!! Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  3. There is no rush my friend.. Get a Triathlon at 1.1 and you should be golden for 200 jumps... Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  4. IO error I = Idiot O = Operator Joking.. lol.. I use to say it to officers in the Marines.. What is wrong with this damned thing Sgt Cowan?? I think it is an IO error Sir :) LOL Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  5. Not sure? That's why I'm asking the question? Crossbraces hold the shape of the canopy right? And the Airlocks maintain pressurization right? So you would have a canopy that maintains shape and keeps pressurization better than anything on the planet? Right? Rhino Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  6. You would have better luck sinking a Triathlon than a Cobalt.. It has a slower stall speed.. I had a Triathlon150 at 1.25 and could sink it straight down.. It was a very safe and versatile canopy.. Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  7. You didn't answer the question?? Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  8. Do you mean SINKING the canopy in??? Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  9. I told him to jump what I would put my son on.. There are reasons for the selections.. But you are right. Allot of good combinations.. I believe the Triathlon is absolutely the BEST first canopy for anyone.. My son will have one when he starts jumping. It is great in wind, turbulence, chop, and it's easy to pack..

  10. Get a PD reserve.. A Triathlon main.. And a Jevelyn container.. RSL.. And a Cypress if you can afford it.. You can't go wrong with that combo. You will be 225ish out the door.. Get a Triathlon loaded at 1.0 for your first canopy. And a reserve loaded the same.. Rhino Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  11. You can land ANY canopy straight in?? Are you ready to goto a Cobalt150?? Rhino Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  12. It is an interesting thought isn't it? Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  13. Sounds like an IO error??? Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  14. Land it the same way you land the cobalt 170.. Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com

  16. Why haven't we seen an attempt at a CROSSBRACED AIRLOCKED canopy? It would seem to be the best of both worlds? POSTED THIS IN TALKBACK AS WELL Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com

  18. I have 7 jumps in a birdman wing suit.. It is a matter of education more than anything. Do not get in that suit until you have studied what can go wrong and how you will react in an emergency. How to exit the aircraft. Know your range of motion. If you find yourself in a spinning malfunction under a small main you could be screwed if your procedures aren't EXACT. You can't reach the handles the same in a wing suit. I pulled higher.. No less than 5k because it took me a bit to get the damned thing loosened up so I could fly the canopy. I have heard of some REALLY slow fall rates in those things.. Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  19. You need to be between 1.0 and 1.2 for 200-250 jumps.. Depending on how well you fly a canopy.. You don't need to be learning under something you feel is too fast. Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  20. It is the truth isn't it.. What do you think about your Triathlon?? Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
  21. Triathlon is a GREAT. FORGIVING, SAFE!! First canopy.. If my son were to start jumping today I would put him on a Triathlon.. Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com

  24. My woman always has tons of wet orgasms?? You mean that's not normal?? Pleasing your woman everytime before yourself? I make it a point for her to be happy before I even start actually having sex :) The ratio is in the ballpark of 10 of hers - to 1 of mine.. Her favor..

  25. Because most men are too stupid to know what a clit and a G-Spot are?? Blue Skies and Smooth Rides!! http://www.aahit.com
