ROFL No expert hear. Blue Skies Joe "When they say jump you say how high" RATM

$20 a month isnt all that bad to be missing out. As long as he pays within the deadline thats the most important part. Every roomate ive had always waited til the night before the late fine would be imposed. A tennant that rents a house from me never pays on time. Roomates are hard to deal with but they make the rent a hell of a lot cheaper. Blue Skies Joe "When they say jump you say how high" RATM

I wait tables and bartend, during the day. So I dont have to be at work until 11am and am usually off by 2pm. But then i usually have to work again that night so its not as nice as it sounds. Blue Skies Joe "When they say jump you say how high" RATM

I agree clay. When flying back into the wind unstowing the breaks would probably work best. For me if your way up wind of the DZ and pointed toward the DZ, on canopies that arent overloaded, with the wind at your back blowing to the DZ leaving them stowed works great. But I geuss its different for everyone. Blue Skies Joe "When they say jump you say how high" RATM

Just a quick question about sunglasses in freefall. Doesnt the bottom open part of the glasses allow too much air to flow through therefore drying out your eyes. I havent wore glasses in freefall yet but while skiing. I tried glasses instead of goggles and the air came right through and really dried my eyes out.

I dissagree with this advice, I might be wrong but what works for me is that if your long dont unstow your breaks you actually fly more horizontally with the breaks stowed then by releasing them . Try it some time go for a little bit with the breakds still stowed then release them you will feel the canopy decline faster than before. but remember to release them by about 700'. And if you still not going to make it keep the brakes stowed and pull down on the rear risers. Blue Skies Joe "When they say jump you say how high" RATM

I watched that show tonight.. HE has such a messed up life . IT was funny as shit. Anyone that can have a show based after your everday life at home has to be one bad ass mother F#$%er. Blue Skies Joe "When they say jump you say how high" RATM

Im in kind of a similar situation accept maybe fipped around. I was seeing a girl this summer who was staying in town. at the end of summer she went back to school. SInce then she always wants me to come down and see her. But THe weekends i have to save for jumping. SO i dont really get to see her unless she comes up hear. Is it sad to give up sex for jumps. I personally would rather spend a couple days at the DZ then drive all the way down there just for one day of sex. Anybody else out there that would give up sex for skydiving, or am i just crazy.

Where are the alternatives to Pro packing???
Jabeln79 replied to PhillyKev's topic in Gear and Rigging
Sorry i just cant picture this ,Stop me when im wrong please Flaking the canaopy i assume is the same. then laying on the ground with the tail down is the same, Do you still make the first S fold. WHen exactly do you flip it over without twisting the lines. Blue Skies Joe "When they say jump you say how high" RATM -

Just curios about pyscho packing is the only difference in Pyscho to flat packing just rolling the top of the canopy down instead of folding it. IF so is it the same way Aerodyne shows you to pack the Triathlons in the Video. IF it is then i Pyscho pack and love it . Its the easiest way i could ever get any canopy into the bag.

Sounds like an awsome vacation. I could sure use some time off down in FL. Nohting but Freezing temps and snow hear. Ive always wanted to go to the Keyes how was it down there. Blue Skies Joe "When they say jump you say how high" RATM

I vote for right hear in the middle of the country. There are several DZ.s close to St. Louis. Archway would be perfect or up at SKydive Chicago they at least have plenty of planes for us. Blue Skies Joe "When they say jump you say how high" RATM

I tried didnt quite get left but for a second didnt lose any alti if my body position would have been better out the door im sure its possible. And Kreg its about time you get a taste of winter down there now you know what we feel like all winter long. Blue Skies Joe "When they say jump you say how high" RATM

Well as I predicted earlier, 0:0:0 Damn cold today and windy. No one else wanted to jump in 25-30 mph winds so that and the -19c temp at alti kept us on the ground. Blue Skies Joe "When they say jump you say how high" RATM

I bought a used dytter and set it for around 6K just to give me a heads up on, its about time to pull, then use my wrist mount for the right alti on when to dump. SO i would say that an audible is very helpful. Plus when learning to sit i had problems while turning my head and arm to look at my wrist mount it would cause me to go unstable.

O.k. weird dreams, First i had a dream i was watching a 4 way coming down from the ground outside of a school i dont even go too while on a skiing trip in Colorado that never happend. Any way as one of the guys in the four way had a cut away,, and never pulled his reserve and landed right infront of me. I though for sure he was dead but after i call an ambulence i go over and he is just laying there telling me how great the jump was and that some how he couldnt cutaway, he was laughing about it. Another dream i was back tracking and somehow forgot to pull so I hit the ground on my back just as 2 other people land by me under their canopies. I thought i was dead but I just looked up at them and started shaking their hands. I love skydiving dreams. Blue Skies Joe "When they say jump you say how high" RATM
