Watching out for newbies [was - hard impact at Nats]
elias123 replied to virgin-burner's topic in Safety and Training
I'm so glad you decided to hook up your Saffire again and put the Katana away for a while, because if you hadn't, you'd be dead right now. Heal fast my friend "In a mad world, only the mad are sane" -

Woodkid - Iron "In a mad world, only the mad are sane" -
I was recently encouraged to go for the FF pud as well. So I switched from a hackey/pod/raggedoutF111PC/6ft bridle to a FFpud/Mpod/ZepoPC/9ft brilde. In the beginning I thought that pulling out the pud would require more effort, but that turned out not to be the case. I have two lips on my FF pud, one goes under the container flap and one goes into my BOC, so it's very secure. Since I jump this new setup my openings have noticably improved and I love the heightened sense of security I get now that I know that my pud is secure. It makes actual flying much more fun since I don't have to worry about a premature opening when flying camera on my back under a formation for example. It improves safety for not just you but also for other people on that load/jump in my opninion. "In a mad world, only the mad are sane"

He now has 6 jumps on his K97. I've also tried to change his mind, but no succes here either. I hope I don't lose my friend. "In a mad world, only the mad are sane" -

Agreed. Bavo and Spike are awesome backfly base flyers. I hope one day I'll get to their level, but doubt it. -

Jackie, Spike and my teammates had asked me to make a video of their jumps. Shame I couldn't make it. Sure looks like you guys had fun. -
Don't worry Mr. high and mighty, I'm not giving lessons to anyone but myself. What an immature, sad and frustrated little man you must be. "In a mad world, only the mad are sane"

I gotta say, for someone who just won first place in a world championship of artistic wingsuit flight, you show very unsportive and childish behaviour. I hadn't really expected this of you, but hey, if that's how you roll ... I find it pretty rediculous as well that you brag about getting 200 FREE trainingjumps and then bitch about some altitrack.

Here's a roughcut from one of the flocks we did after the competition. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3Df_nR6rvU I had a really great time at this boogie. Friendly people, beautiful surrounings, great facilities, ... I'm coming back next year for sure! Thanks Csaber & co for a great event! "In a mad world, only the mad are sane" -

If you could buy a plane for your DZ......
elias123 replied to weaverd's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Pilatus Porter. We're a small Cessna DZ so we could do alot more loads per day if we had one of those. Sadly they make to much noise for the people living around the airport. "In a mad world, only the mad are sane" -

Lowest altitude you've pulled at?
elias123 replied to blue24's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
1750 feet on a wingsuit jump. Got distracted filming openings after a flock. Learned my lesson. "In a mad world, only the mad are sane"
