since his goal is to- in his own words, "fundamentally transform the united states of america" he will most likely be using this as a chance to spread his marxist propaganda. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

Why are rigs so damn expensive?
countzero replied to Tomcat933's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
i beg to differ. Rigs and Things has 17 container/ main/ reserve package deals that are less than 5k with 10 of them being less than 4k. diamonds are a dawgs best friend -
The Evolution of Language (NOT a grammar Nazi thread!)
countzero replied to MikeJD's topic in The Bonfire
the suffix -ing will most likely be gone in a few years. i don't know if lack of education, the language we are exposed to in music and television, or plain laziness is to blame. it is probably a mix of all three. diamonds are a dawgs best friend -
Did an accident shake your confidence?
countzero replied to Xtine's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
broke my tib and fib and had hardware installed back in may. had a lot of time to think about things and my faith carried me through the darkest times. in the end i decided that what i get out of jumping is worth the risk involved. and when i return next month i know the nerves and fear will be there but i will focus that energy on being safer. diamonds are a dawgs best friend -

How do I shop for a 1st rig? And advice on a specific rig, please.
countzero replied to Erin84's topic in Gear and Rigging
being as you're in CA. and with the # of DZs there you should be able to find something you can buy in person pretty easily. get with your local rigger and instructors and tell them you're looking for your 1st rig. and ask them to put the word out to riggers and instructors they know in the area. offer them a case of beer or a finders fee. best of luck on find your 1st rig diamonds are a dawgs best friend -

had 70 jumps when my rigger put together a used rig for me to use in a scrammbles so i could be sure to have a rig all day. i was just going to rent it from him. but i ended up buying it. we even worked out a payment plan. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

both the SIM and many wingsuit companies say 500 or a minimum of 200 within the last 18 months. the instructor i know uses the same guideline. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

contact some jumpsuit companys. they are more than happy to answer questions and ask you questions to help you select a jumpsuit suitable for your skydiving goals. a couple of things they'll want to know- is what disipline you want to pursue and what your fallrate is like. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

How soon is too soon to start freeflying?
countzero replied to Rstanley0312's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
i think having 150-200 jumps before FF is better. because you'll have more experience at safely breaking off and tracking away, also you'll have a better awareness for levels, proximities, and stopping and starting movment toward docks. true that in FF things happen faster. but i feel that the skills i mentioned and learned in the 200+ jumps i did on my belly have helped make me a safer jumper/ freeflier. diamonds are a dawgs best friend -
Brian Germain Canopy Course
countzero replied to waterboy3412's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
i took it last fall and highly recommend it. basically: we would have a classroom session, then go do some hop & pops to work on what he had taught us, then he would de-brief our landing videos and we'd discuss the up high canopy flight exercises we'd just worked on too. then we'd repeat the process adding new things. it's definatley meant for anyone wanting to learn how to be a better/ safer canopy pilot. and to me it was well worth it. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
