  2. Does anyone have a backup camera? I been keeping an extra PC as a backup for the last few years. worked out pretty good when one of my others took a shit. besides I could pick one up for under 200. But now that I have an HC-5 it is getting pretty expensive and i'm not sure i want to spend that kind of money on a backup. I found on for $500 still in the box. I have the money but do you think its a good idea?

  3. It disturbed me. I had to delete the pics so I could lead a normal life after seeing them! LifeshouldNOTbeajourneytothegravewithawellpreservedbody,buttskidinsideways,cigarinone hand,martiniintheother,bodythoroughlyused upandscreaming:"WOO HOO!! What a ride!!!"
  4. Good to hear you had a great time. Try and make it back for the Labor Day Boogie. We are going to have a great time!! Hans and Greg know how to throw it down. But please don't let some of our jumpers scare you away. We have a transvestite at our DZ. He looks scary but for the most part he is harmless. Beside he/she is a really good swooper ps if you notice he is licking the brown finger.

  5. Key word is BELLY. No its not ff. If you can do 160 on your belly you need to go on a diet! LifeshouldNOTbeajourneytothegravewithawellpreservedbody,buttskidinsideways,cigarinone hand,martiniintheother,bodythoroughlyused upandscreaming:"WOO HOO!! What a ride!!!"
  6. Yeah but I pack for my self...99.9999% of the time or I ask you to do it. See if you would have packed for your self we wouldn't be having this conversation. I never said it would hold up with a slammer, besides I hold on to my helmet on deployment so I won't lose my shit or my head.

  8. It's not that I can't stay up that late, I choose not to. I have learned that over the years. after 2-3-4 am bad things happen!!

  9. He means come around any other weekend other than a boogie weekend, because he doesn't go to boogies either. Paul, I'm sure you put on your apron while you bake? Damn that is just a bad visual. That's ok if I can't have any of your "special" cake. btw Ian if you aren't coming you can't post!!

  13. That SCARES me!!! We will stick with Robin's cake, no telling what you will put in it Paul. It might take a jump or two to remember how to do it but yes I think I can.

  14. I have done a "sunset" tandem before and been totally blinded by the flash. Glad I had an functioning audible. Here is an alternative to a flash. http://www.cinemagadgets.com/litepanels-micro-p-1491.html Your eyes could adjust to it in freefall, just hope they are back to normal for landing. As for a flash I would go with http://www.shopcartusa.com/P_Canon_Speedlite_580EX_II_Flash_1946B002/PT_Y/?ic_campID=98 but I don't have the extra cash right now so that isnt going to happen.

  15. Laszlo, Those are some great shots, but I think you need to clean your lens, seems to be a bunch of writing all over your pic's.

  16. I just configured this last week using a Cookie Liquid flat lock and a L bracket I had made. I tried using the front mount for my stills, but I didn't like it. A 20D with a 10-22mm Canon lens is too heavy for that. XTi would work better. It is top heavy but I don't mind that. With the vertical stills mount the pic's have great depth that I wasn't getting with a horizontal mount. I cut a piece of wood to support the lens. covered it in gaffers tape. Gives the camera a lot of support. I would recommend some sort of support no matter how you mount your camera.

  17. The heck you're not! Nadia and I need coaching. I heard a rumor Ian is going to ditch me again. Something about canopy nationals or something? Tell him I don't give up that easy. It's good work! Ian is a boogie snob. He gets scared if there are more than 3 other canopies in the air. And when you do 1440's everyone is in the way.

  19. YEAHHHHHHH more fun at the FARM!!!! Shouldn't it be called No Labor Day? Cause I'm not workin' LifeshouldNOTbeajourneytothegravewithawellpreservedbody,buttskidinsideways,cigarinone hand,martiniintheother,bodythoroughlyused upandscreaming:"WOO HOO!! What a ride!!!"
  20. $5.85?? hell I thought it was $2.13!! That's what I get paid. LifeshouldNOTbeajourneytothegravewithawellpreservedbody,buttskidinsideways,cigarinone hand,martiniintheother,bodythoroughlyused upandscreaming:"WOO HOO!! What a ride!!!"
