  1. 50 still sounds young. Instead i'll call you half a century. Get a big fat cigar (i know you dont smoke, but thats not the point, you only turn half a century once) and a tipple of your favourite ale. Now thats 50 in style. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

  3. If someone made one for me id probably eat it, because i would hate to try and clean that up myself. Id end up with more bone than meat.. I heard its a very muddy tasting fish? 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  4. Oh i can believe it, that thing really showed me what flying an eliptical 7 cell was all about. Sharp turns and no flare. A completely different canopy from a 9 cell Nitro of the same size. Was a very fun canopy til i had to land it. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  5. Fucking Lee, i knew that would stick 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  6. I was jumping a Nitro that was tame in line twists, then jumped a Diablo the same size and even loaded extremely lightly it was a pucker ride when it twisted up. Only done that once 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  7. I love pike fishing. Still remember my first ever pike in England *wipes tear from cheek* 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  8. It was as tempting as a "wet paint, do not touch" sign. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  9. As i said, your mentor needs a kick in the head if he said get a Safire2 119 when you cant stand up a sabre 150 Edit: Try thinking for yourself and not going on what other people say. As skybitch said you are the one under the canopy, not them. Although she said it much better. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  10. Was a fucking cold one. In my infinite wisdom i decided to throw big rocks at the ice to see how thick it was. Probably weakened it if anything before i went walking on it 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  11. If your instructor has seen you fall over 5 out of 10 landings and says go for a safire2 119 he needs a good swift kick in the head. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  12. I dont think a jump from a square canopy to a semi eliptical, with a downsize is a good idea when he only stood half of his last 10 landings up. I think thats asking for trouble. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  13. How many times have you stood it up in your last 10 jumps You know how i feel. I've expressed my opinion and know what you'll do. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  14. I didnt, i went there after my A as i was at a tandem factory. Nice try fuck face 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  15. The Geordie and Andy the rigger. They have their own aircraft now thats very very nice looking from the pics i saw. Cessna Caravan (not sure if its a grand or not, not been there in a while) I like the place, if you are serious about AFF its a good place to go with a good club atmosphere. Id highly recommend them. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  16. Would you know the difference if we told you
  17. Hmmmmmm cupcakes. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  18. According to Mr Spakies logic i should be dead multiple times over. Just sayin 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  19. Yup. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  20. Tom-aye-to Tom-ah-to I personlly think if you are wearing BASE gear and planning on basement pulling its more a BASE jump than a skydive. Of course people will disagree but thats my thoughts. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  21. Its a fact, i remember reading about it. As i said though i dont actually think its a good thing for the sport. Its been done thousands of times already but i think it should be left to the valleys. As a BASE jumper i like to defend the equipment we use and the whole "but you dont have a reserve" argument annoys me when we take every precaution to stop mals. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit.

  22. I didnt take anything home except a huge lump in the middle of my forhead from the head butting he recieved 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  23. In England i only jumped at 3 places. But all 3 places had a manifest list on the flightline and we had to sign off people after checking their gear. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
  24. I hate clubs, i hate the music and i hate the poeople. Some idiot with a silver tooth and cheap bling hit me in the face while i was standing in line to get a beer. So no, the bouncers dont throw just him out, they throw us both out and i have to settle it outside. Was an interesting night. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit.

  25. Some guy in England (i believe) hooked himself in at a demo once. Doesnt mean ban all demo's. 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.
