Why do some jumpers think it is okay to lean on others in the jump plane?
DougH replied to AdamLanes's topic in The Bonfire
This thread is the best backfire all week! "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P -
It's very simple.....Don't break the law and you will not have to pay any fines and go to court. Yes, things in life are simple, black and white. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

I think you should start by kicking the metht... "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

You are mixed up. You NEED your B license to participate in night jumps at a USPA group member dropzone. D license is the only license that has night jumps as a license qual. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

I thought the same thing! lol "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

Hey this tax accountant would like you to focus on one thing at a time please. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

Because they fine you. All my friend ever busted for pot had to pay some hefty fines. Maybe that isn't the norm, I made it a priority to not get arrested for the same. You hire a lawyer, more money. Or you go to jail and make money for some corporation. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

Same reason we have thousands of cops who spend 99% of their time writing speeding citations. $$$$ "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

If you get the demo tour to measure you, you should ask for Cookie, and not Les. Hi Cookie!!! "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

What is this email list every one is talking about? Is it top secret? I want to keep my eyes open for any 126's that go up for sale.

Sorry for the thread drift but I guess I don't see the big deal with a huge service life? Some of the original AAD's on the market have an unlimited service life correct? But you don't see a lot of rigs with sentinels in them any more! I am pretty sure that by the time my cypres II is expired in 8 more years there will be something else that I will want to upgrade to that is even more refined and improved. Or maybe in eight years I will be pissed that I have to buy a new AAD. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

does anyone carry a tertiary reserve for CRW?
DougH replied to ruthers's topic in Canopy Relative Work
Why do you need to remove the mal'd reserve? Correct me if I am wrong but paraglider reserves don't involve a cutaway of the wing, the reserve just adds extra drag to save your ass. Don't tertiaries function in the same manner, extra drag for your worst case scenario? "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P -
A fanny sack is a great place to hold a... ermmm soda. You can put the soda in a heavy duty ziplock to contain a burst. I have allways worried that I might have a blow out on the way to jump run and my ass would be grass. If you were insane, and alone in the air, you could use mini carabiners to clip your toggles to your hip rings and fly around in deep deep brakes while you drink your soda.

How to judge altitute when flaring - Help!
DougH replied to climberjumper's topic in Safety and Training
What did your instructos say? Your instructors will give you a far better explain how to land a canopy with face to face instruction than some putz on the internet. And in my opinion any one who is trying to offer a student with one jump landing tips over the internet is doing that student a disservice. All you need to know is you will learn as you make additional jumps, and that you need to consult your instructors, not the internet.

I think I hit 100 in about 6 months, I had 250 in just over a year, and 500 and just over two years. I have been slowing down recently, not as single as I was, and not as spend happy as I once was. I still love every minute of it though. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

Is this post just a cover for the folk who jump at the farm? Me thinks something fishy is going on here. Trying to divert attention and all that. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

I have heard grand stories of my dz from days long past. Now the only people who seem to stay are the one or two families that tow their campers there for the weekend. No one camps, and because no one camps no one wants to camp by all by themselves. I would love to camp, but I found myself a great girlfriend so I can't stay all weekend at the dz any more, and I know better than to bring her around there.

More bang for your buck. They probably were junking the container and didn't want to deal with the rapide links.... I hope. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

I only have one friend, and it is Billy! Damn I am an e-loser. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

Unless you fly a big ass tuna boat or a student canopy.......Then your in the fucking way! I don't mind those at all, at least I can look down and KNOW that they are going to sashay and s turn all over the place on final. I like knowing what to expect.

Woman with the bike in her avatar that I know nothing about. Sorry Guppie. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P

No one is going to coddle him in this thread because in my opinion his original additude and tone sucked. There is a difference between a gap in knowledge, and a shitty additude. If you can't deal with some tough love, and still listen to the message, then you weren't going to listen in the first place. I certainly remember the few times I made some mistakes and got my ass chewed out, and I remember the leason as well if not better than the ass chewing itself.
