    You are obviously more of an expert than me. I am only trained in its use, have been tased, have used the M-26 and X-26 numerous times and carried one every day since around 2000. Read this atleast you will be an informed expert: http://www.taser.com/company/pressroom/Documents/State%20of%20ECDs%20Jeff%20Ho%20MD.pdf For what its worth, I was a cop years before the taser. With all the controversy drummed up by the media I would be happy to turn the taser in and go back to the old way of doing things. Kevin Muff Brother #4041 Team Dirty Sanchez #467

    ***Over 300 people have died from being tased.[/ FALSE I have been tased, OCed, CSed and a few others. I won't be volunteering for the taser again. Kevin Muff Brother #4041 Team Dirty Sanchez #467

    I would recommend Deland. They are friendly and I never have a problem getting on a load. Also great for kids. WOW, that shocks me. My experience is totally the opposite. Actually if Z-Hills were to ever close, I don't know if I would continue skydiving. Kevin Muff Brother #4041 Team Dirty Sanchez #467

    Sounds like me 22 years ago. I spent 7 years as an Infantry Paratrooper and think it was possibly the best 7 years of my life. Make sure he gets everything in writing as stated above. My younger brother wanted RIP but was told they didn't have any contract slots available, "they will ask for volunteers at the end of OSUT for RIP and Airborne". That didn't happen and he got stuck in a leg unit in Germany. Whatever he decides tell him thanks for his service. Kevin Muff Brother #4041 Team Dirty Sanchez #467

    This is the cheapest I have found. Don't have to be a SCUBA diver, just join the group and get the insurance. Skydiving covered. http://www.diversalertnetwork.org/insurance/plans.asp Kevin Muff Brother #4041 Team Dirty Sanchez #467

    To me a "sport" should have some competition to it. If you are competing in the US Nationals its probably a Sport. For me its just something I do in my spare time, not an addiction, not the meaning of life, its just a hobby and I could really take it or leave it.

    I also thought that was a little ridiculous. I am not going to whine about the event but suffice to say it wasn't what I was expecting. I had the time off and the cash to jump for four days but after seeing how things were, I made two jumps got a refund on my other three tickets. I cut the trip short two days and just spent the time hanging with my non skydiver friends stationed up there. Kevin Muff Brother #4041 Team Dirty Sanchez #467

    Try and demo some different rigs and canopies to see what you like. I am exactly your height and weight and am very conservative in the gear dept. I have almost 500 jumps and I jump a Vector3 with a "Skyhook", my main is a Sabre2 210 and a PD 193 reserve. I also have a Cypress in there. I have had this rig for the past 300 jumps and am very happy with it. No need to downsize, I can make it back easily on windy days. I have soft stand up landings even on no wind days. The only thing is I don't look "Cool" jumping a big canopy. I would be happy jumping a T-10 if it would get me to the DZ every jump. I used to jump a fully eliptical 170 for about 80 jumps stood them all up never had a problem but I like my 210 batter. Kevin Muff Brother #4041 Team Dirty Sanchez #467

    It hasn't come to that yet here but it may. This is OPD that is concerned right now. No talk of layoffs where I work. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/orl-loc-budget-fire-cops-unions-040109,0,4696930.story I jump at Z-hills and I have heard from some of the jumpers in the Tampa area that they are laying off cops on some of the smaller departments over there.

    I have been a cop right here in central Florida for the last 13 years. I did 7 years in the Army before I went into law enforcement. There are a LOT of guys that go into law enforcement after retiring from the military. Unfortunately with the way the economy is right now, a lot of budgets are being cut. A lot of departments are cutting back on hiring and some are even laying off cops. Kevin Muff Brother #4041 Team Dirty Sanchez #467

    No, I haven't worn a uniform in 8 years I don't answer calls ect. I am just there for the jumping and maybe a beer with my friends before I leave. I think most DZs don't want a cop hanging out after hours. Kevin Muff Brother #4041 Team Dirty Sanchez #467
