    You disappointed me - I was expecting a 3-page article on basics of formation skydiving
  7. skyleague.com the videos are not posted yet
  8. a new record!! that a point every 0.744680851 seconds on average! and Sinapsi is very impressive
  9. oh ... I wasn't directing at you or NWFlyer but wouldn't you agree that the gear ignorance is not very uncommon, especially on big DZ's?
  10. Good looking flight attendants serving chilled drinks on the way to altitude
  11. I am curious how many of those jumpers who always say "oh don't do this or that, ask you rigger to take care of it" know how to hook up a canopy, change a closing loop ... or clean the cutaway cables
  12. I don't see a need to replace ALL the rubber bands after a weekend of jumping unless they are not in a good shape. I do like to replace them when they look like they are about to break.
  13. Do I need to order the lines from Atair? How much do you charge for re-line? I don't need a reline urgently, will probably need new lines in a few month. Thanks Anton
  14. Does anyone have experience with re-lining Cobalts? How long does it take realistically to get it relined at Atair?
  15. I could not imagine that this thread would be so interesting You guys need to post more stories like that to encourage the new generation ed to spell
  16. Don't be so hard on your team - the game was pretty close and someone had to win.
  17. Yeah yeah yeah ... whatever .... At least we got a gold in hockey anyway! 'Shell what a game - nearly half of the time was a powerplay

  19. I can't, but I'll make two guesses and show my ignorance of skydiving history (remember, in the late 80's early 90's I only had a few hundred jumps) Air Bears? Coolidge Fource? (sp - Force?) Perris Airmoves Deland Gang
  20. Let me decide for myself besides, there is always a possibility that someone will find you pretty Seriously, if speedos are designed for swimming, why can I not use them for swimming in public places?
  21. Can someone please explain to me, what is wrong with speedos? For example, I can buy speedos at swimming section of any big American sportswear store, but if I show up wearing them at public swimming pool, I get all this strange looks. For a woman, wearing tight bikinis is perfectly acceptable. Why it is not appropriate for a man to wear speedos?
