There is an instructor where I jump that does it. I can't wait to learn..... going to get good and comfortable on my belly first though. Unfortunately we are no where near you.

It'll be sore for about a week... BE CAREFUL WHEN CHEWING FOOD until you get used to having a metal rod there. Once it heals though it's freakin awesome.

so sad

Hmmm...... I hoping we don't have to use a raft to get around this weekend. It's been raining.... no... wait POURING for over a week and everyone is flooded. congrats on the new canopy... beer?

Oooh you know what's worse? Working your part time job at the mall and trying to get food on your lunch break while people are in zombie mode looking around and draggin their feet. I agree with the boys. if you're going shopping get in, get what you came for, and get out. And if you see someone in a friggin hurry get the f*ck out of their way.

We do their merch.... Utterly fascinating... If you haven't seen it... go see it soon. The human rights activists are having a field day over the origin of the bodies.

joygasm And here I thought I was going to have to cough up extra money for a plane ticket that I could have spent on tunnel time. -
My family is pretty cool with accepting me for who I am. ... most of the time. But I'm a ballet dancer and everyone I dance with thinks I'm friggin NUTs because I choose to wear bondage pants instead of shoppping at the gap. none of them would ever think of getting their tongue pirced, or worse... their lip. When they ask me where I got my fur trimmed coat I tell them it's real muppet and I killed it myself. I kind of like being the black sheep though. At least I'm not fake. I am who I am. The fact that most people think I'm strange doesn't sway me at all. I like fast cars, hard drugs, and heavy metal. WTF would I want to shop at the gap so I could fit in with the rest of my peers? eew

One more thing you can do to learn is find an empty parking lot and shift from first to reverse and then back to first. It looks strange to onlookers, but you will get the hang of starting from a stop without stalling. (it's all aobut the friction point I LOVE my standard. Every time I drive my boyfirends car (auto)it makes me angry because it's so pokey. One more good thing about standards..... more control in the snow

What's your favorite song for a skydiving video?
divegoddess replied to jumpjunkie2004's topic in The Bonfire
Why Stevie Ray's version of little wing? Why not go Hendrix? I don't know why I always hear punk in my head when I think about skydiving. Almost anything from NOFX. Nine Inch Nails could also be good. If you like metal try some Unearth, or maybe some Opeth, or even Into Eternity (they have killer guitar breakdowns) If you like electronic try some Broken Spindles. I think the album Fulfilled Complete is amazing. You didn't really give us any hints on your preference of music genre. -
Yea people stick a bunch of bolt ons and some stickers on their Civic and they call it a nice car. (cause stickers add horse power too) I used to drive a civic. It was o.k. I tried putting on a new exhaust, cold air intake, yada yada yada. Nothing I did to that car would make it half the car my v-dub is. The first time I drove my GTI I was in love. It really surprised me. Definately more bang for your buck than my Civic. The 1.8 Turbo engine is refreshing. The copious amounts of low end torque never cease to put a smile on my face. (or surpirse the macho car guy next to me in traffic) Now when a Civic pulls up to me and revs it's loud exhaust, I just give them my I'm just a little girl who knows nothing about cars smile..... then I rev MY engine. Once they hear the turbo, they usually knock it off. I'm not saying my GTI is the shit, there's plenty of cars that would spank me off the line (WRX) but for something stock it's pretty nice... considering I only paid 2 grand more than my honda. I wish I could afford an audi, but it's pretty much the same engine (just no all wheel drive )

F*ck Yea! Bubbles was the first plane that I ever jumped from.(not that my jump numbers are huge) That little Cessna RULES. And might I add that the view from your dropzone is GORGEOUS
-
Yea! They already do that with Sudafed over here in NH. I gues they don't want to encourage meth labs!

Just when you think you've seen everything.... the stupid will amaze you. It just seems like that guy left his house without his aluminum foil helmet that day...... You gotta wonder about the training he received though.... he didn't even know which handle did what. He's lucky

i went to a large legal rave at the end of July, why doesn't this sort of this go off that much in the states? http://www.globalgathering.co.uk/ There's lots of good parties in the US... you just have to know where to look. I'm going to see Venoom and Pleasurehead tomorrow

that's wierd.... everything I have ever read about the spectre says the openings are GREAT. I dunno cause I've never jumped one, but reading reviews and various threads in the forums, most everyone else claims the openings are soft

There is no "muscle memory"
divegoddess replied to NewGuy2005's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
It's the same in ballet. you work really hard on improving something until it becomes second nature.... and then you focus on something else. Eventually you will find that you have to go back and work on something you have already worked on. But that's life. Always working toward something better. Ballet also helped my martial arts. I miss it. I think there is such thing a muscle memory. Maybe they should call it something else, but I understand the concept. -
There is no "muscle memory"
divegoddess replied to NewGuy2005's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I said you must destroy the brain. (by any means possible.) And yes I agree with you that killing a real live zombie is difficult. I did say that cutting off the zombies head (like they do in the movies) wouldn't do you any good though. You must destroy the brain. -

That... is a great idea man! They are cheap and easy to make and the doggies can run without interfearing with the DZ activities.

There is no "muscle memory"
divegoddess replied to NewGuy2005's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Remember that there are two different kinds of Zombies. There are Zombies infected with Solanum; and those that are created by Voodoo! Voodoo Zombies feel pain, have memory, show thought, recognize their surroundings, and they recognize fire! The zombies that I think you are speaking of are essentially a corpse.They are infected with solanum before they die, and reanimate after death. Their circulatory system, and digestive tract do not work.(the meat simply sits in it's original undigested state in all tracts of the digestive system and remains there until the stomach bursts.)The lungs and brain are still used though not in the way humans use them. The human respiratory system is obsolete to a ghoul. It does not separate oxygen and carbon dioxide as the zombie needs both to exist. This is how zombies are able to walk under water. The mental capacity of an average zombie is somewhere below that of an insect. Their brains are oxygen dependant, but have never shown the ability to employ reason or logic. The life span of a zombie is dependant on it's environment and how quickly the body decomposes. The walking dead tend to move at a slouch or a limp. Even without injuries or advanced decomposition, their lack of coordination makes for an unsteady stride. Speed is mainly determined by leg length. Zombies are incapable of running.The fastest zombie has been observed to move at a rate of barely one step per 1.5 seconds.The strength of the dead lies in their amazing stamina and endurance. They will function endlessly (zombies do not need sleep) until their muscles disintegrate. Zombies have little hand eye coordination. In the case of ladders, where simple hand over hand coordination is required, only one in four zombies will succeed.Balancing or jumping is beyond their ability. Oh... one more thing.... you don't kill a zombie by chopping off it's head! The head will still be alive and IT WILL bite you and infect you if you walk by the severed head in a close enough proximity. You MUST destroy the brain by any means possible in order to kill the zombie. Just a couple of things to keep in mind if you find yourself in a post apocolyptic wasteland. Blue skies -
thats awesome! KMFDM is always great live. We print their t-shirts so I always am sure to volunteer to bring merch to their shows when they come around. Always a good time. I haven't head their new album yet, but the t-shirts are cool. Lucia does her own stuff now too... I heard it wasn't bad.
