Go to your local health food store and buy some golden seal. It removes the THC within 24-48 hours. Then, be sure and drink lots of water with some exercise to flush the golden seal (they test for that as a "masking" agent). We are all engines of karma

By bungees, I take it to mean the rubber bands on the bag. If that's the case, don't use your fingers to take them off. Use the closing pin to pry them loose, then take them off. We are all engines of karma

Thanks! We'll all be better for it.

Thanks for sharing that, Skyrad. I would imagine that few people knew that about you. You do have a tendency to throw out "strong facts" without proper reference. Maybe you could teach a little more in your posts, instead of trying to inflame. We are all engines of karma

By the way, you don't need to keep your hands directly under you chin. Just under the plane of your chin. Keep your box, which will put your hands a good ways away from your chin. We are all engines of karma

Very well put. I'm sitting here this Sunday morning sipping my coffee and reading this thread. Very educating and entertaining. Nice way to start my day!

I've been with my wife for 17 years now (married for 15). She's an engineer, and in many ways is smarter than me. I can't wait for her to reach senior management. That way, I can stay at home and keep the house clean We are all engines of karma

Another thing you can do is pick a road, or something similar, and use that as a reference point. Practice turning in place. You should be able to get a feel for how well you're falling in place. I also agree with Kallend. Tracking is very important. We are all engines of karma

Don't forget to keep your hands under the plane of your chin. And, point your toes. If you can't keep a "relatively flat" body position while pointing your dick HARD into the earth, while keeping a fallrate with the other people, it's time to add weight. If you're setting the fall rate, then it's time for the other people to add weight. Getting a group of people with your experience level to have a solid fall rate together is going to be hard. Focus on 2-ways. We are all engines of karma

Agreed. And what's even worse, there is no certainty tax revenues will actually increase. This is just a way for local politicians to steal and get rich. Guns, and lots of them. That's whats needed here. We are all engines of karma

Arch hard through your pelvis (i.e., stick your dick in the dirt). That should keep you to two dimensions, if you have a fall rate with the other person. We are all engines of karma

For sideways translation practice, try this drill dive. It takes 4 people. 1) 2 people face off, take grips, and fall straight down. 2) The other two people take a side body on the same person. 3) Release grips, move sideways to a side body on the other person. 4) Rinse, repeat. 5) Do that 2 times per group. 6) Switch responsibilities (i.e., the two translators now face off, take grips, and fall straight down). For backwards translation practice, try this drill dive. It takes 2 people. 1) Face off and take grips. 2) Break grips. 3) One person falls straight down. 4) The other person orbits the staitionary person, without changing their heading. This will give you practice going sidesways, forwards, and backwards. 5) Come back to the original 2 way, and let the other person try it. 6) Rinse, repeat. It's not easy to do. Don't take grips. Just touch fingertips. See how long you can stay relaxed in this position. After 2 or 3 dives, you should have that problem solved. We are all engines of karma

Some suggestions: 1) Concentrate on your body position. =========================== RW requires a good box. Otherwise, you and your people won't be able to take all the various grips without introducing bobbles into the formation because of changing body positions. Keep your hands under the plane of your chin at all times. Keep your head up. Point your toes (...this will help your lower legs be rudders). If someone is flying a box with their hands above their head, here's what can happen during a compressed grip: As soon as they take the leg grip (with their hands above their head) their body is below the other person's body. So, that person needs to bring their hands way down to take a compressed grip. As a result, they cup air, and a bobble is introduced into the formation. 2) Learn basic movements while keeping a box. ================================== a) Turn in place - this should take you about 25 2-ways with video. Get coaching here. It's well worth the money. b) Translate sideways c) Translate backwards 3) Get a group of people, and jump with them. ================================= This is one of the hardest parts of RW: finding people who'll keep jumping together. a) Get a fall rate This takes about 50 jumps with the same group of people. FALL FAST! RW translation/rotation is accomplished via deflective momentum. The force available to you varies with the square of your speed. The faster you fall, the smoother you can rotate/translate. Don't make the fastest jumper dearch. By definition, they set the fall rate for everyone else. Wear weights. Do simple randoms until the fall rate is spot on. b) Drill dives - lots of videos out there. Here's one dive I love: After you've done your 2-way turn in place dives, add a 3rd person. On this dive, two people take turns doing a 360 left, then a 360 right while one person remains stationary. This introduces lots of movement into your peripheral vision, which will be distracting at first. This will teach you to trust your judgement when it comes to staying in place. 4) Start trying to engineer dives ======================= Guy Manos introduced the PAKSS system many years ago. a) P - puzzle What formations are going to be built during the dive? b) A - angles What heading are the formations going to be built on, so as to minimize movement? Will the center of the formation need to be translated from the prior center? How much can you cheat the formation? c) K - keys Who is looking at whom, and when? How do you know when all grips have been taken, via eye contact signals? d) SS - secret stuff Start keeping a log. Buy a book. There's lots of stuff here. Get coaching. 5) Be safe ======== Make sure your group wears chest mounted alitimeters. Your chest mount isn't for you, it's for the other people on the dive to look at. Also, make sure at least two people have a ditter. Good RW can be really good, and you don't want to lose altitude awareness. We are all engines of karma

It'll help us better appreciate your info, Skyrad, if you'd share your sources for some of these numbers: Where did you get this? I read a minimum of 3 newspapers a day (Wall Street Journal, NYTimes, NYPost), and haven't come across this. Caught by whom? Where? When? You cannot in fairness compare the entire US armed forces to a small group of individuals who are being investigating for the few episodes that have been published. Your equating the entire US armed forces to a small group of disgraced thugs in Abu Ghraib? You mean the ones housing snipers? And explosives? And other weapons being used to kill US soilders? I believe these incidents were investigated. Don't believe any were deemed unjustified, but I'm not sure. Check points have well established rules. It sad to say, but Iraqis should know those rules by now. We are all engines of karma
