  1. I agree!! That movie went on and on and on and nothing happened! I expected much better from a Stephen Spielburg directed film starring Tom Hanks.
  2. Yeah, I had to quit working there because it got too expensive. We got an unbeileveable discount, however that meant that everything was a great price, so I would go home every night with a new toy. Now I feel like everything I own says The North Face on it. Now that you mention it though, I do need some new gear...

  4. When I used to work for The North Face, we were trained to never reccomend using windstopper as a base layer under Gore Tex. The reason being Gore Tex needs a high differential between vapor pressure on the inside and the outside to breathe correctly and windstopper, having its own membrane, significantly reduces this vapor pressure and makes your Gore Tex perform poorly. That said, I have worn my windstopper jacket under my 3-ply Gore Tex jacket without much trouble while skiing. Windstopper gloves are about the best gloves I have ever owned! North Face used to make a leather palmed windstopper glove that I would wear biking in even the coldest weather. I don't think they make them anymore.

  6. Ehren, here's a better pic which indicts you in the infamous pool incident.
  7. Yup...she sometimes posts on here as flygurl.
  8. yeah, sounds like Tahoe's got all the snow. But I just looked up the snowpack for Colorado and we are doing great this year! It's good to see so much snow after so many years of drought!!!
  9. What if it were easy, cheap, and feasable to jump from 100,000 feet and 10 minute freefalls were the norm?
  10. Awesome pictures kramer! *sigh* I wanna be back in Eloy....
  11. I would talk to sebastian if I were you. It's less than an hour from Orlando. I did my first two jumps out there and I loved it. Great people...unbelievaable views.
  12. Very good advice. In AFF, I had an instructor get confused which canopy I was in the air and instruct me to turn when I was 50' above the ground. I knew better than to follow that command.
  13. Not unless you live on a *VERY* dangerous street. Skydiving is high risk.
  14. You know every time you post, I hear the words in my head in Beavis's voice.
  15. Holy shit, searching under my full name turned up the following picture off of fbi.gov
  16. If you go out of your way to respect those in your life, they will in turn respect you in return.

  18. Holy shite, I had an awesome day at Vail today!! Over 3 feet of powder in the last week!
  19. Awesome. Look at that smile! I am guessing they did a release on her AFF-1 because of her tunnel time?
