    Off on a tangent but saw a t-shirt on a biker... The back of it said... "If you can read this, the bitch fell off."

    At the risk of exposing my lack of "worldly culture".... WTF is a "gay,lesbian,straight" nite club. That would be like 3 or 4 bars in my world.

    I need to start getting out to some different drop zones. LOL

    Yep. No judges around to sign our warrants so we get to run amuck for a long weekend. If we did work we would get paid plus a day off in lieu.

    She WAS hot in Blade-Trinity. But you're right- that's quite a title to just give out. What are the criteria?

    I've got nothing to help you out, I'm as far north as you.... BUT.... If you take one of these offers, can I please have your current job, apartment...... and of course I'd really appreciate it if you could introduce me to your artist friend. I'll kick in some gas money to help get you on your way.

    Thanks. I'm not a lightweight? (sucking in my gut) My missed landings have both been in higher winds, so I'm hoping it's a lack of experience under canopy and can easily be corrected.

    I'm brand new at this, weigh 175 without a rig, and am jumping with a Manta 288. I'm having the same issues as mentioned here with regards to penetration. On one hand- it is keeping me very vigilant with regards to picking my exit spot and tracking, and the canopy IS very forgiving with my landings. On the other hand- I've found myself unable to make it to areas I'm aiming for and sometimes even pushed backwards. My fragile ego has taken a pounding and I'm sure the farmer is getting sick of me in his corn. I'm self supervised and will be looking for my own rig soon. I would like to start off conservatively but would like more penetration. Are my issues more likely skill or equipment related?
