shall i cry like some of the religeous nut cases do on here? i feel my point is actually quite a valid one, yet because it doesn't coincide exactly with yours, you say i'm a troll.... that seems to be the pattern on here, follow what everybody else is saying or you're a troll for making me angry I think people should be given all the information to make safe decisions, tell people about wing loadings, tell them about all the dangers about small canopies, BUT then let them make their own decision on what to buy. If they then want to be stupid and buy a VX90 after being told not to, its their fault and they only have themselves to blame if they biff in YOU are not my master, if i want to do something stupid, that is my decision. If somebody (no matter how old) wants to go and buy a Lamborghini Diablo after only passing their test 2 weeks ago, are you also in favour of regulations being brought in to stop them? Its exactly the same as buying a canopy that is too fast for you Give everybody the relavent information on safety, but then stop the nanny state and let them fuck up if they want to, its their call ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

http://www.bodyflight.co.uk/ great place, with some really good instructors ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

thanks

I've decided that i want an audiable as an extra safety feature Which out of the 3 is the "best" Do the more expensive 2 have useful features? or are you just paying for gimmicks you never really use? What open face helmet do you need with these? I use a cheap Protec at the moment, but want to buy a jazzy new open face as well. Do the audiables fit totally inside your helmet or is there a little ear piece that you push in your ear or something? Can these be fitted to the outside of any helmet? thanks for any advice, i'm a bit confuzzled ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

.. yeah its just the company you have to put up with thats the problem you sir, are a cad and a bounder ! ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

It also dumb because the price difference between what most 17 year olds drive, and a Ferrari is huge. Canopies are all about the same price, and even then, the most expensive is within financial reach of almost everyone. Its not dumb at all I'm not saying a Lamborghini or Ferrari are within reach of most kids... but SOME kids have rich, stupid parents, and want their kids to look cool.... as long as you've passed your driving test (AFF for skydivers) you can go and buy any car you want.... there is no regulations or law stopping some 17 year old buying a supercar.... so why should there be any regulations stopping a person buying what ever chute they want? does it boil down to numbers for you? its ok to risk a small amount of 17 year olds in Lamborghinis, but not a large amount of 17 year olds under a VX90 ? ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

he WAS one of my instructors !!!!!! after making a post on here about it, and reading up about wing loading, i rang him up and changed the order ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

i love the smell of the Grand Caravan when they start the engine... it's just a pity i'm one of the first on the plane with pulling so high ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

Any of you instructors ever had a student shit their pants due to fear? either in the plane or during freefall? and what did you do about it? ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

Come up to Langar, the packers are great ! always got time to show you stuff.... even the instructors will show you stuff if they have a few minutes spare plus you get to jump at the best DZ in England ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

after 2 weeks in the sport and 7 jumps.... i went to my rig seller and said i want to buy brand new, i was recommended a chute that gave me a 1.3 wing loading .... i took his word for it and ordered it. ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

would you like some cheese with that whine? ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

Has any instructor known a student to shit themself either in the plane, or in freefall and what would you/did you do about it, if it happened? ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

that is EXACTLY what happened to me i'm 39 and did my AFF in september last year at Langar, i was as rigid as a board for my first 5 jumps... always spinning up as a result. I was trying to arch too much, resulting in me being too stiff. I went to the Bodyflight wind tunnel at Bedford with one of my instructors, he taught me to relax and it was like a switch being thrown and a light coming on. I'm working my way through my consol jumps doing nothing more than jumping out, getting stable and just holding a heading in a nice relaxed manner. I've got all the time in the world to practice my turns and tracking... i'm just enjoying myself being relaxed and on heading for the time being ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

its crazy isn't it... i've only got 18 jumps and no reserve ride... yet the thing that bothers me so much about my first is what people will say when i get back to the clubhouse i wonder if i will get told off for doing something wrong that made me have to use the reserve ! ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

freedom of choice i guess would you also be in favour of not letting a 17 year old buy a Ferrari if he had the money? ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

so, why are personal attacks allowed on me then? does the "in any form" mean "allowed if we don't like you and we think you deserve it" are we allowed to write a review of the San Diego dropzone in the DZ review section? ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

i'm 39 and a newbie ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

under BPA rules in England, we can't wear a full face untill over 50 jumps i jumped today and it was -10 outside (lovely and warm in the Grand caravan though ) and i've just got a protec and clear gogles... didn't even notice the cold as i was so pumped ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police

Ahhh, the smell of fear! i tell you what !!!! i've felt my bowel's loosen when i've been in the door, and had to go for a crap when i got on the floor, it was as loose as anything !!! like turning a tap on and brown water coming out.... thats the power of real fear ________________________________________ drive it like you stole it and f*ck the police
