Question About WLing
gearless_chris replied to millertime24's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I think the problem is that some people argue about whether to count the top skin overhang, and how much of it to count if you do. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole. -
Isn't the FXC re-settable so you can have it fire over and over and over without having to buy a new cutter? Think of all the money you'll save. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole.

My big ol' belly and my teeth. It's a real dilema, if I loose the belly I need to eother buy a weight belt or downsize to maintain my W/L . "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole.

That looks like a great way to spend non jump weekends. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole.

I assume you mean cylinder not calander. It's the other German, Porsche. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole.

I love it. We occasionally throw evil weebles out in the landing area for targets. I hadn't thought of setting up a bunch of them. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole.

now that is funny...my first thought was "do you really want to see my favorite non skydiving toys?" Of course! post away

Where are the tires? What are you gonna do with the interior? Do you have heat in the garage? I got lucky with my truck. Bo and Paula have a heated garage and TWO beer fridges.

It's official then, discussion over. Now about that how to measure the size of the canopy question... "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole. -
Dang, I had to read it twice before I figured it out. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole.

If you tell him to do it, then you have to jump in cold weather too. HHMMMM where did those two radio tuners come from? Oh well, Come in Tokyo Oh, well if she's gonna go I... Someone should do video. I don't usually get to jump on my birthday either, but I do get to vote. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane.

I set a cut off date for the current year. Usually the Halloween parties start the next year, so I've been shooting 2009 video since October. It takes me a long time to do my year end video so it usually doesn't get done until somewhere between Christmas and Feb.. I only posted my first time in the trail plane so I could show one of my friends, it's going to be in the 2009 video eventually. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane.

Just as soon as I win a billion dollars I'll have one of those. In the meantime I plan on obtaining a 700 R4 and a 8.8 out of a Ford Explorer. I've got a side job lined up to pay for it when I get time to do it. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane.

Happy birthday. I say do it. If you're by yourself and no video maybe you can talk Rook into doing some stupid pilot stuff. You know, stuff like a back loop or barrel roll. Zero G exits are fun too. You sit in the door and the pilot flies the plane out from under you. I had a pilot get a little carried away once on the way to altitude, I'm glad I was wearing the helmet at the time.

Here's mine, still completely stock on the outide, underneath is a different story. 350 bored .060 over, 10.5:1 compression, big cam, loud exhaust (actually made a little girl cry at the store), 4.10 gears w/o posi (yet). It'll only do a little over a hundred MPH but it'll get there quick. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane.

He's probably talking about the RDS, but couldn't it also be a weight vest? I don't know if the rules still allow it but I thought they wore weights to adjust W/L for different courses.

I just made my first jump!!
gearless_chris replied to Da_SKiES_R_BLu's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
She accidentally said she jumped from a 283, that's the first thing that came to mind. The next time I feel like updating it's either gonna be 1134 jumps, or 35007 jumps, not sure which. I figure if you're gonna make something up why not have fun doing it, I had 420 jumps for a long time . To the O.P. Congrats on finally getting your jump in, it only gets better. The weather will too. There's probably not a lot of kids in your grade that can say they went skydiving last weekend. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane.

I suggest watching Gypsy Moths with the sound off. Those shotguns would get real old real fast if you watch it repeatedly . "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole.

That sounds like a much better idea

Yeah, a 283 is an old chevy engine, wouldn't get much frefall off of one of those . "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole. -
Try calling Skydive Wayne County, they still have rigs that can use the FXC. jrpraeter is Jamie's name on here, but she's not on much. I just found out during the last Richmond Boogie that they are a gear manufacturer for Sweethog containers. You'd be better off having a modern rig though.

I wouldn'y say I hated it, but it wasn't that great, for the same reasons as Redline165. I also didn't like how they shook the snot out of the camera in the chase scene. It seems to me like the studios are dumping a bunch of cheap garbage on us and expecting us to buy it lately. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane.

I added one very important safety device. "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole.

Do you also think that a penny dropped from the Empire State Building will kill someone? Seriously? A filled water balloon has a lot more mass than a penny. People seem to always forget just how heavy water is. You should try getting one of those water balloon launchers and fire one straight up in the air and see what happens when it comes back down I dunno about a crater but it will definately hurt and leave a dent in whatever it hits. I know of a case where someone tossed a water balloon at the windshield on a moving school bus..... shattered the window Water can do some damage I have personally seen a water ballon go through the windhield of a car. It left a hole the size of a fist. It was thrown from the back of my truck going 60 MPH at my friends car that was going 60 MPH the opposite direction.

That's not bad that's what my normal openings look like. Check this out. [/url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8pspx_dobE[/url] "If it wasn't easy stupid people couldn't do it", Duane. My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole.
