  1. thanks a million for that.
  2. Hey dragon, can you expand on why you would have to deinterlace the ntsc clip ? Just in case somebody wonders, if you're in the opposite situation as the one described by dragon and you're importing pal clips in an nstc project, the clips should be resized to 85% so you see the whole thing. Dragon, i'm not sure what you would do with the fields of a pal clip in a ntsc project. Any ideas ? P.
  3. Hey, Just got to do my first flight at night. All i can say is that it got my adrenaline pumping like it hasn't in a long time... Next time it will have to be a flock ... take it easy, P.
  4. What I gathered from these posts is that you need two cameras one pal one ntsc... Is there a way to do it with only one camera. My cam plays back ntsc and pal no problem... "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement."
  5. When it comes to freestyle, funkflyz rules. Check out their website here . Nice pics section. Have fun. "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement."
  6. I thought this one was good. "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement."
  7. what about freeflying ? is that any good ? i suppose it all depends how far/close you get from what you are filming... "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement."
  8. Just wondering if anybody was flying without a lens using the Sony PC style cameras ? Paddy. "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement."
  9. "From what I have been told, in the right hands, they can cover more distance than a S3 but will take longer to do it. " More distance, MOre time in the air... Isn't that what we want ? Paddy.
  10. Hey guys, Does anybody know where I can find a list of the BMI courses ? I'm in south california not far from perris or elsinore. I'd love to get that done. thanks, Paddy. "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement."
  11. Oh, did I forget to mention this. However, I don't foresee myself doing anymore teaching or providing advice in this area. you are either satisfied and you have mastered the art of sexual intercourse with your partner, or you are vey old "Good judgement comes from experience.

  12. Let's see ... I can juggle four balls. I can juggle two diabolos. I can unicylce. I can play drums. I can fly head down. I can do a lot of things with a computer. I'm good in bed I feel like I just did an interview for some sort of entertainer job Paddy """"""" "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement."
  13. ok, when it comes down to putting some tunes over your skydives, what do you use ? what are your favourite songs ? I find that alternative rock, punl rock or some sort of drum and bass work well. What do you guys use ? Paddy ''''''''''' "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement."
  14. Hey girls and boys, I just got my pc105 and i'm having fun already
  15. Hi guys, The more stuff I read the more I get confused. From what I gathered, I can firewire all the footage from my camera straight to my computer without compressing the video and loosing quality. From there I can edit the video using something like adobe premiere. This is where I start getting confused. Once the movie is edited, you can either send it back to the tape (no compression), save it as an .avi file on your computer (compression) or burn it to a dvd (I'm not really interested in creating VCD's). Now, what format do you convert the movie to before you burn it to DVD ? What is the purpose of all the codecs out there (divx, mpeg4) ? Are they used only for the web ? Could you tell me step by step how you take footage from your camera and stick it to a dvd in the best possible way (quality wise) ? thank you. Paddy. "Good judgement comes from experience.

  16. I read somewhere that there is a boogie in perris the last weekend of may. Does anybody know anything about it: registration fee ? level required. thanks, "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement."
  17. mine are assuming that I will be doing the same in a year or so I don't think so "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement."
  18. Jesus, I'm even surprised people could consider bush... ok i'm not into politics and I have an outsider's eye on it since I live in ireland but christ the guy is a fucking wacko !! and stupid as well... just in case you guys haven't noticed I thhink the whole planet is laughing at him... I don't know if kerry is better but in all fairness you can't be serious when you're saying you are gonna put bush back on the seat for four years. Paddy. "Good judgement comes from experience.

  19. one thing keeps on surprising me about this dvd. it's how it pleases whuffos and skydivers alike... the guys i live with are afraid of heights non way they'd get into a plane... however they loved the dvd, beautiful sceneries, amazing wingsuit footage. mind you I have been bragging about my wingsuit for long enough they probably wanted to know what you could do with them
  20. beer I bought... First flight over the week end... amazing. I'm hooked in one flight...
  21. Myself and my buddy luke just got our new wings... Can't wait to get out of work... the clocks are not ticking fast enough...

    Olav?

    He's decided to compete for germany again. Since he was competing for the states, he has to get his license cleared which means no competition for a few years. that's probably why he's not in the main stream anymore.... As for what's happening in europe, I have done a lot of flying with nils from the funkflyz and these guys rock. Aria and babylon are really on top of tehir game too... Yes indeed it's going to be an very nice world event where these guys just push the limit of what they can do with their bodies in the air. There is a 'new style' of flying growing which I found is a mix of every thing. Over the days where you just spent the whole dive on your belly or on your head. Mix it up !!! so much more fun to explore angles and find power in every position... I feel like I'm only starting exploring all of this but it's so exciting... Freefly rules. take it easy, Paddy.

  23. Hey guys, I have been flying a bt 140 for the last 200 jumps. I Load it at about 1.2. I absolutely love this canopy. I want to get something smaller though. I'm thinking a crossfire 119 (1.4 wing loading). I don't really see a point in me getting an airlocked or crossbraced canopy. Any thoughts on any other alternatives or on why I shouldn't or should get the xFire ? cheers, Paddy. "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement."
  24. Same here, Best way to go... "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement."
