Dang .6 for $35 or .45 for $80. They must be proud of that little guy. Any other suggestions? If not I'm going to order the .45 from Kenko.

Grown out gives someone something to grab onto...that is if you are into that stuff.

Now I'm confused http://www.pricegrabber.com/search_getprod.php?masterid=4446920&search=25mm+kenko+lens "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience up before your bag of luck runs out."

Well my camera came yesterday (Sony HC42) now all I need is the helmet and lens. My friend suggested a Kenko .45 W/A Lens. When I do a Google Search for: "25mm kenko lens" I don't get a ton of places that sell it. The price I seem to find is about $80. Am I just looking in the wrong place or what? If you don't like this lens what do you all suggest? Thanks "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience.

Almost all of my jumps since I was off student status have been in my Z1 and I love it. I have an XL and it's great. "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience up before your bag of luck runs out."

Does anyone visit any other Forum on the internet?

Yep I visit the followiing fourms: www.topekasportriders.com www.kcsbforums.com www.skydivekansas.com "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience up before your bag of luck runs out." -
Wouldn't tandems fall under "parachuting training" They are taught to arch and other things, etc. I'm not arguing on one side or the other just asking for clarification.

Contact Larry at Aerostore 610-327-8555. "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience up before your bag of luck runs out."

Can you buy a box from Rawa and just mount it to your helmet? "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience up before your bag of luck runs out."

That's Jen's choice Brian you know that. Geez I even list KSUPC first in the thread. I'm going to try to make it out there in a few weeks. If I'm lucky the Midwest Freefly Legend will be there. I sent you a PM on the issue of wingloading brought up as it doesn't really pertain to this thread. PS: Were you the guy from KSU that was wingsuiting with me on Saturday in Nebraska?

Yep you have KSUPC in Wamego and Skydive Kansas in Osage City. You should check both of them out and jump away. Also if you are around Wichita or want to drive that way look up Martin at Air Capital Drop Zone. K-State University Parachute Club Skydive Kansas ACDZ I jump at Skydive Kansas and would be happy to make a jump or several with you. Edited to add ACDZ to the mix.

my camera helmet. I went with the Rawa and should have it between 2-4 weeks. I can't wait! "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience up before your bag of luck runs out."

They just did a preview for Sportcenter's Top 10 and they showed somebody doing a E somewhere. I'm curious to see if it makes the Top10. It should be on at about 10 til because the show ends on the hour so turn on ESPN. "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience.

Is it confirmed to be flying jumpers at WFFC yet? I didn't think the official thumbs-up had been given yet. Just checking. "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience up before your bag of luck runs out."

Thanks. The other jumpers were experienced and Joni (my instructor) was on the dives. I ended up low and that is why I didn't see them. Thanks again for the feedback, it was awesome and I can't wait to do it again. "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience.

This weekend I went to the Redemption Boogie. The main reason was to try out the wingsuit and I'm glad I did! It was a great time. Joan (Joni) Garvey was my instructor and she gave me a good rundown of what to expect and what to do if the unexpected happened. After our FFC for the wingsuit she suited me up in a Prodigy suit. Dang these things are hot, it reminded me of the vinyl suits we use to wear in wrestling to make weight. 1st jump was ok. The exit went well although the flight was a little rough. I did some potato chipping, but as the flight progressed it went better. My wave off was sub-par. (88 mph avg fall rate) 2nd jump was an attempted 4 way flock. Needless to say I didn't see anyone the entire time, but one gentleman said he was fairly close for around 20 seconds of the flight and then turned away because I was going a little too far from the DZ for his comfort. Wave off was better. (84 mph avg fall rate) 3rd jump was an attempted 7 way flock. I ended up not seeing anyone after the exit until deployment time. They were way off so I waved and deployed. The flight was starting to feel a little more stable. (84 mph avg fall rate) 4th jump. By this jump I was starting to feel when I had the wings in a better position. Turns were better and no chipping on the jump. It was a blast. (78 mph avg fall rate) 5th jump. 4 way flock. This was a great time. I saw the group out of the plane. I started to turn back towards the DZ so I went a little low. I didn't see anyone and then Nathaniel from Hinkley (SP?) drop below me looked up and then took off. IT WAS AWESOME! (78 mph avg fall rate) Thanks Joni and everyone else who jumped with me. Great time.

They can't swim but they can jump to an empty rock. Anyone? "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience up before your bag of luck runs out."

It's early and I can't figure this out. I'd attach the file but it's too big. You have 7 rocks in a pond. On the 3 rocks on the left you have green frogs facing right. On the 3 rocks on the right you have red frogs facing left. The middle rock is empty. The frogs can only jump in the direction they are facing. They can only jump over one frog at a time, so there must be an open space for them to land. How do you do it so the frogs switch sides?

I called up AeroStore because I was going to have a friend pick me up a RAWA at WFF. They said they weren't going to be there this year.

What's the difference? The 46 seems to be a little cheaper? Thoughts. "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience up before your bag of luck runs out."

Hey motorcycle crew, I think I picked my first bike :)

Nice. Good choice (in my opinion) for a 1st bike. "You start off your skydiving career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience up before your bag of luck runs out."
