I'm the Pie Queen mate, you'd better be wearing a lot more than a seatshirt if you want to survive...
-
So, what IS a SEATshirt? Is it an extra thick shirt you wear over your arse skydiving to hide the fact that you've crapped it in girly FEAR? BWAAAHAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! (Huh. Thought that would make me feel better. But it didn't. Mean, evil, evil, bastardly weather.)
-
No...don't do that...It would be ...regrettable . Congrats, btw! I still haven't sent off for my C License! My little red book still says A.....Better sort out my life I guess...

Bastards......

I'm in England, it's Friday, wanna go skydiving tomorrow and IT'S BLOWING A GALE AND PISSING DOWN!!!! WHY?? WHY???? It's not fair. Sucks arse. Haven't jumped for 3 weeks. I don't think I can remember what it feels like to be in freefall.

To whom are you referring, out of interest?
-
Man - I don't know what to say. I feel your pain dude. Our thoughts are with you and I hope your gf is repaying to the tune of 10BJs per lost ticket, at the very least. (Is this a good ratio? I know it can never truly make up your loss, but it's a start.)

uhh...sorry..thought I was at the DZ for a minute there....ignore me please

'Live' meat (of a type) certainly has its...attractions..... As long as one doesn't actually digest...

LOL...ew....chocolate poo come back, all is forgiven....

Ah, a man after my own heart (or....my...something). On the vege/ low fat thing - I really hate it when restaurants/ airlines etc assume that not eating meat = not eating anything unhealthy, fattening etc. Don't forget, butter, oil and sugar are all 100% vegetarian. Thank God! And pies.....where would we be without vegetarian PIES? The reason I'm vegetarian is I just don't like eating dead bodies.

I'm glad you're ok. Forget the dumb fuckwit technician. When my boyfriend broke his leg all he got was doom and gloom from certain doctors. I think sometimes they feel they have to be as negative as possible, either so you don't get disappointed when it's worse than they said (and sue them!) or because they are sick, insensitive tossy power-trippers! Anyway - they were wrong, my bf was up and about in about 1/3 the time that Dr Depressing predicted. So - I hope it's not too unbearable for you while you heal. You'll be better in no time! Good luck!

I think that's the VMax article in 'Skydive! The Mag' you're referring to? In my opinion this is a pretty good article but your best bet is to get yourself a Skydive U coach to go through it with you in person. Myself, after flying boxman for 250+ jumps, I found the mantis a welcome relief. It is not only far more efficient in terms of the speed at which you can turn, it is also a lot more comfortable for me. I think this is because I'm quite light, and arching harder and harder in a boxman to keep up with lardy blokes hinders your movement quite a lot, as well as putting you in a pretty uncomfortable position. The mantis seems to equalise fall rate issues a bit, as long as all jumpers are using the position. You can also get a better view of the formation. However, I do find it impossible to keep up with fat blokes flying boxman if I'm mantising. Have fun.

No man, sign up. I wasn't sure until I'd filled in all the questions, but it seems to have helped clarify how I feel somehow.....

ROFLMAO!!!!! Fantastic! Wonder how long it is before these guys get banged up in jail for some dodgy contravention of democracy though?.....

Take it to the PMs please Will.

Get a student loan and then spend it on skydiving! It's perfect in its simplicity.....ahhhh
-
yeh, and she also said casualties so watch it!
-
LMFAO!!! Expect to see the first of many casualties as soon as someone tells me where to get one of these babies! Skybytch, don't you work for Square One? Can't they do something to meet this huge demand? Talk about a gap in the market...( a gap somewhere, anyway...)

I just read a brief mention of this miraculaous little invention and wondered if any deaf skydivers could advise on where to purchase such a thing? The ONLY reason I ask is because my Vudu open face lets a lot of the sound of the wind in and not much sound of the bleeps....so kinda thought I could..uh...strap it to my wrist or something...somewhere I could actually feel it go off....pfffft.....he he

Hey Phil!! Nice picture...Very suited and booted, something I've not seen before...Remarkable!
-
But at my Dz....nah, there are too many 'homo' comments for it to be accepted..so no-one would dare to come out. Or maybe there aren't any.....Not that I'm bothered either way, be gay, be straight, tie each other up or shag microwaved melons - it's your call :)
