    Again, its what i read in the paper today on the tube, and found amuzing. Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    Its also illegal to catch fish with a lasso in Tennessee. And to cross the road on your hands in Hartford, Connecticut. And in Oxford, Mississippi, its illegal to drive around the town square more than 100 times. He did 101 in 1 hour . Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    I read in the paper today about these 2 guys. "...persistent criminals don't come more harmless than Rich Smith and his mate Luke Bateman. They embarked on a quest to break the silliest laws in America and recounted the journey in a top-selling book, You Can Get Arrested For That. The mission was simple. Visit every US state and do something ludicrous." Metro, Friday September 15, 2006 Anyway, one thing was to play cards with a Native American, which is illegal in Globe, Arizona. I thought that was amuzing. BUT THEN they also say: It is illegal for a divorced woman in Florida to go parachuting on a sunday! Now come on ladies, how many of you live in Florida, are divorced, and how many of you skydive on a sunday? Cause you are all law breakers! Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    can check out some patch pants at Tony Suits.com I think they cool anyway Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    Ok, im getting fed up with the people slagging of my patch pants. Fair enough, im in the UK, maybe they never really understood "Patch Pants" (bear in mind that pants means underwear in the uk). I got a lot of memories attached to my patch pants from when i was in zhills. Everytime i go to my dz, Andy has a go at my patch pants! But i love em! They comfy in all weather conditions! Am i just weird or does anybody else love Tony's patch pants? Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    I dream skydiving a lot, get these awesome fantasy dives, but every now and again, only once in a blue moon, i get a bounce dream. I can actually see myself hitting terra firma, but wake up as soon as i hit it. First time scared the crap out of me. So whose had a bounce dream then? Or am i just morbid/crazy or just plain insane... Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    i havent heard of any canopy that has more than 2000 jumps on it... Guess if it gets sold after 1000 jumps, it wont get sold again. Anybody got a canopy with more than 2000 jumps on it? I wonder how many are still around... but then again i havent been around long enough to know. Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    My first harness was a Naro, actually Tonto's old crew harness . Thanks for filling in the gaps in the story Rob I was wondering if the ZP material of old Triathlons, etc. that where not as slippery as the PD material where "as Zero P" as the PD material, and if it lasted as long as the PD stuff... Any opinions? Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    From what ive heard, Aerodyne was started by PISA to gain entry to the american market, BUT i could be wrong! Its second hand information talk around beers on a dz after jumping started around the fact that the material on canopies from both comanies come from same source.

    Keep buying beer until you learn to shut up about them firsts . You got a whole lot more coming Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    My hard deck is 2k on my pro track and Optima. The first and second warnings depend on the dive. Blue Skies Phielix Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    Dude, just my personal opinion, but i dont like velcro on risers as lines can wear on them, but that just me I have absolutely no velcro on my entire rig Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    Ive had so many friends/ people i meet say its a really cool thing to do and they want to do it, but when it comes down to doing it , there are more excuses not to do it, than reasons to do it.... All i do now is give them a number of a AFF and Tandem instructor (he is also my rigger), and see if they ever call him. None has so far. Most people talk the talk, but never take action. There is one guy i once convinced to go skydiving, and he lives in the states now (Hey Ian ), and i think its awesome that he loves skydiving as much as i do.

    why dont you email sky systems and ask them what camera will fit? I see on their website that they are starting to make sidewinders that sony HC range cameras will fit into Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    ask TK at skydive city, maybe he can tell ya Some dream of flying, i live the dream...

    I sincerely hope im not one of the "most" skydivers, but skydiving has saved me from a life of doing things i shouldnt, if you know what i mean. At the same time it has given me inner peace and happiness, and i will not give that up for anything. therefore i think that skydiving is a source of enlightenment. Or maybe im just weird...

    dude, i have a sabre, and if you quarter the slider properly (if you dont know how, ask someone who does), and roll that tail a lot (again ask someone how not to roll the lines into it) That way I have no problems with my sabre. Its just my opinion of doing things, but maybe you can add a larger slider if the problems persist like porterhouse said Blue Skies Phielix Some dream of flying, i live the dream...
