  1. I'm sorry but if you're a man and take it in the ass or want it in the ass of another man you are fukking gay! This in not querry. If you are a man that loves men, you are gay! Why do you ask these questions?
  2. Duguello 8/16 practices at my DZ all year long in matching suits and rigs. They do like 300 jumps a yr. in 8 way(that I don't think that have ever medaled) and half that in 16 way. They are great people, Jack Burke and Tom Jenkins!
  3. Oh to be 25 again liv'n in Johannesburg. And skydiving at that age!
  4. I tend to agree with this. I demoed a XF2 2.1/1 and it seemed well over peak loading. I went X-braced instead. Much better idea.
  5. Strap on 40# of lead and see how you like that wing loading on your current X-fire!
  6. And i saw a steering line of a PV HP canopy (not sure if it was a Demon, but it was the PV Demo guy) rip on final, wiping the jumper (who is used to jumping it) out pretty ugly, but he was lucky and walked away (3 meters from the taxiway...). What kind of lines do they use?
  7. QuoteI don't know anyone who doesn't get spanked occasionally on all canopies I put 500 on my crossfire and never had a hard opening. I've got a few hundred on 3 different Xaos's 2-21's and 1-27 and have yet to have a hard openning.
  8. My history with Atair, I demoed a 95 with the H-mod, opened nic for about the first 6-7 times, then I did a hnp and it slammed me. They sent a 20-22" pilot chute. The next couple opened nice then it was like Jeckle and Hyde! I started putting my hand under my chin to protect my neck. They sent me a reglar 85 and it was 0/6, all slammers! I bought a Crossfire 99 and never looked back. No special pack method and openned in a track and couldn't make it open hard. I know people that have good ones that rarely get spanked but it still happens.
  9. I demoed a used Sabre with a pocket on the slider and sent it back for the 1000'+ snivel. But I don't know anybody that has one without the pocket that hasn't been spanked occasionally. I got nerve damage in my shoulder and neck from 1 Sabre snap. Glad you have a nice one.
  10. OK Jimbo, The Xaos does fly big, so I'll offer to let him jump my 83'-27 cell! He won't see China unless he hooks it under 1000'. Someone at my dz jumps a Xaos 27 cell with around 300 jumps, 2.2 I think, no problem.
  11. Eric, Nice to see ya back brother(who I've never met). I saw the incident post but didn't see this post. I think all the hugs and prayers helped pull your stubborn as through! You know that dieing was the easy way out and you refused. After reading back through this thread it's pretty obvious that a lot of people here care an awful lot about you. Don't let them down. Keep up the good work and everything else will take care of itself. Welcome back with good vibes! Conway
  12. 3 stage opening..... 1 Think deploy, 2 deploy pilot chute, 3 canopy..bbbbbboooooommmmm!!@!!!!!!!!! The nastiest opening canopy i've jumped besides the Saber...............
  13. How's your neck? Would you like some realignment? Get the cobalt! Need to see your chiropractor? Schwwwwwaaacccckkkk!!!!!!!!!!!
  14. You should be able to jump with experienced jumpers with no problem. Solo's are only good for getting over your fears and getting stable. Unfortuately you need a reference point other than the ground unless you're just practicing your track. Good luck! Fly safe.
  15. Dave, If you'd just asked me a couple of weeks back, I would've let you demo my Crossfire 99 but I've sold it since.
  16. Dude that's one ugly rig, did you get at a demo price or something? I love the couch though!
  17. No problem on SW airlines Houston Hobby or Ontario Cal. Except lost a small key chain pocket knife on the second time through security in H-town and a screwdriver in Ontario for my camera mount. They let me carry on my Jack knife that was in my camera bag. No problem what so ever with my rig.
  18. Damn it Mujie, I had to go wash my hand so I wouldn't get the keys sticky!
  19. You left out the "only when regular water is unavailable" option.
  20. Around here we say "As useless as tits on a frog" Around here, it's "useless as tits on a boar hog" Now leave my frogs out of this!
  21. Riders in the Storm! In Houston, KLOL(101.1 FM) would always play that song when we would have a nasty storm blowin through. It just seemed right. Close your eyes and dream, to dream is to live.
  22. Dave, Who are you trying to get ahold of? Rob Burwell? I don't have his email anymore but always got a response from him in the past. PD is the shit in customer service but then again they are the biggies.
