I'm pretty shy too, but I will do it! Too bad I couldn't get liquid courage before jumping . It might be easier if I could get a group of nudies to jump! Muff Brother 3723

How many naked jumps have you done? Muff Brother 3723

LOL, thats a good idea (I'm female) so my tits in the breeze might give me away Muff Brother 3723

When I do it, I'll let you know and you can jump naked too (would be the only fair way) Muff Brother 3723

Who would give permission to do a naked jump? The DZO? The pilot (may not want someones naked fat ass on the plane)? The maneger? Just curious Muff Brother 3723

Adjustable MLW, yes that is what its called, I couldn't remember. Wasn't that an issue at some dropzones, the MLW not being adjusted properly and students breaking their necks on opening? Muff Brother 3723

Doing coach jumps or even on AFF, I would say but what if I kick you by accident or something? And they tell me as INST. they are taught to look for that and be more aware. So now that non-instructers are telling me they want to make a jump with me, I still worry, but what if I kick you or run into you or something. I understand your fears because I have them too! Right now I am just going to go with those I trust, friends with coaches ratings that will do unoffical coach type jumps with me, and keep it simple, 2 ways, solos, tracking dives, etc. Muff Brother 3723

Anything with J-lo in it should be burned Shall we dance, was a total chick flick so of course I loved it! Muff Brother 3723

Billy I totally agree with you, Dumb and Dumber was funny, but the sequal was just crap! Muff Brother 3723

Lisa, since the sport is so male dominated, women that are remotely attractive do get noticed. As a student I heard "your a natrual" so many times too! And "great arch" ugggghhh! I just got my A lisence on Sat., and now is the tricky part for me, who do I trust in the air? I have friends that have 3000 plus jumps that I am thinking that I don't have the experience to handle his possible stupidity in the air. Ask around about someone before you trust their ability, there are people with thousands of jumps, that are dangerous in the air, and have no business being there. Worry about AFF, and getting lisenced first, then do some solos just to get even more comfortable, its really nice to enjoy some solitude in the air, no pressure, just you, a view and whatever you want to do! Wait til you feel ready to jump with others and in the begining choose carefully. My thought is I'm still pretty dangerous as a newbie, I want to jump with someone that can not only, watchout for me (don't have me doing something way beyond my ability), but watchout for themself as well (my airspace awareness blinders are still in the process of opening up) Good luck!

What exactly is a belly band? The rig fits fine if it is tightened all the way, and I'm not that small, it just is designed to adjust to fit a larger variety of sizes. It was dumb and a mistake I WONT be repeating! Muff Brother 3723

Dracula Dead and Loving it...I actually fell asleep in the theatre!!! Muff Brother 3723

Most recently I did a dumb f*ck thing, and I first want to say I knew it was dumb when I did it. I rented gear, it was a 2004 Navigator (student rig), which I had used a few times before. We were on a 10 minute call so I put the rig on, tightened my leg straps, did up my chest strap, got a gear check, grabbed goggles, and helmet, and waited. I touched my handles, and noticed the rig had a little play on my back, it was a bit loose. I thought to myself I should take it off and tighten in before we go, but then I heard 2 minute call, and thought "I don't have enough time, I'll just deal with it". Knowing what could happen, by not adjusting it properly. On that rig, and for my body size it should have been tightened all the way on the latteral lift webbing or whatever its called, but there wasn't like a ton of play where I thought it would be a life threatening problem. So I jumped, and when I pulled and checked for a good canopy as realized my chest strap was about an inch under my chin and pressing up against my neck. Exactly what I knew would happen. When I got to the ground I thought "dumb f*ck"!!! I am just lucky the thing didn't break my neck on opening, or if a Malfunction would have occured...splat! cause my handles would have been unreachable, or I might have just gotten strangled by the chest strap. So what have we learned today children? Don't be in a rush, check your gear properly, and don't accept death or serious injury as a consequnce of stupidity! Muff Brother 3723

Jeth, you are so right about no-pressure solos, it feel great to just get out and goof off and have fun, without stressing about the proficiency card, or getting through AFF or fucking up a coach jump that you shelled out $$$ for! I want to do some fine tuning now, but I still want to go out and just have some fun alone! Congrats to you too Jeth! See you in Parachutist! Muff Brother 3723

Thanks, thats an awsome thing to say, it felt really good, I was a little bummed that I wasn't going to altitude, but I had lots of time in the door, to take my time and exit chest to the prop! Muff Brother 3723

Thanks, I'm pretty happy! Now I can jump with who I want...errrr or who will jump with me! Muff Brother 3723

Yesterday I got my finished my A lisence requirements, took my test, and faxed it to the USPA! About how long does it take to get the number and the card? Will I be in Parachutist "Risisng Fallers"? Anyway had to spread my cheer! Muff Brother 3723

Nevered injured more then my pride Muff Brother 3723

The CASA boogie's going to be awsome, are you camping out? Muff Brother 3723

Can someone explain a fruit loop? A Tube exit? A horney gorilla? Cause I'm clueless over here! Muff Brother 3723

After definatly, pretty eyes too Muff Brother 3723

I got off work and went to the dz (3rd time in a week, each time getting fucked by the wheather), got right on a load and made a great jump! I did some back loops and worked on turns and fall rate, it was awsome...just wanted to share my excitment! Muff Brother 3723

I'm with you on that one! Dry mouth, wanna puke, head pounding! same here Muff Brother 3723

I played hookey last week to make a jump! And on more then one occasion, I left the date off my jump when I logged it! LOL Muff Brother 3723

Have you ever snuck off to the dz to make a jump when you were supposed to be somewhere else? Like played hookey from work and spent the day at the dz? Muff Brother 3723
