  1. i wear skydiving shirts i have because of the slogans on them. however i usually wear them other places other than the DZ because they're great converstaion starters. which is the same reason i wear concert shirts to the DZ, great converstaion starters. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

  4. i've been a bit of daredevil since i can remember: jumping home made bike ramps, jumping out of the swing, jumping off the house and jumping the bumps on ski runs. that combined with my love of thrill rides made it seem like a natural progression. plus i wanted to see what it was like. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  5. last weekend when doing them the other jumper gripped the cuff of my jeans with his thumb inside and the other fingers outside. i was wondering if there are any structural integrity issues doing this with FF pants. especailly if the cuff is left open for a better grip. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

  9. there's lots of info in the articles section on here about buying gear. plus there's a wealth of info you can get from the instructors, rigger(s), STA, and experienced jumpers at your DZ just by asking. best of luck on your gear search and blue skies! diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  10. just sounds like a guy who wants to use the net to get some cash to start over after his divorce. though i don't see how he can sell his friends to the highest bidder. just because someone wins the auction doesn't mean his former friends will like them, or the winner will like them either. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

  14. just curious if anyone can explain what this means. i read in a post recently where a lady said her husband "gets it". and in the past i've heard Dr. Laura use the phrase with her callers when refering to men. what do they mean? what are we supposed to "get"? diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  15. also see if there are any relator associations in your area that list them. here in houston the local relator association is now listing them on thier web site. diamonds are a dawgs best friend

  21. to get good/ great AT skydiving you just need time, money and a desire to improve. giving back and helping others has more to do with the personality and character you bring into skydiving, i think. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  22. 0-3-0 2 hog flop dives and 1 ferris wheel. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  23. try gluing the pennies down. if you just lay them on there the vibration usually causes them to fall off. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  24. yeah but then you'd have the person with the flat taking up space in the next spot while they change thier tire, and you'd have rubber neckers slowing up traffic to get a look at the moron who didn't read the sign and got a flat from the spikes. also depending on when the parking garage was built could have something to do with the spacing of the lines. there are alot of parking garages that were built when most of the population was driving smaller cars and trucks. now those same garages are being filled with big trucks and even bigger SUVs. i like your idea though. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
  25. not a chance! i may jump a few less times a month or do more H&Ps, but i'm too addicted to stop just because i have to pay a few $ more to jump. diamonds are a dawgs best friend
