  1. Every single rig in my school, plus every single personal rig that anyone broght in has passed the field test here at Raeford. Chuck
  2. The ST is still a fine "swooping" canopy, it's just not competitive in "modern" events. There are some incredibly bad-ass Stilletto pilots out there who just plain rip it. Craig Girrard, Matt Davidson, Raff, etc. If you are making over 1000 jumps a year, then ST's are still a great. They are a nice, predictable, performance canopy. I owned two and jumped them for six years. Chuck
  3. I may have banned her; I am bad about that lately. SunCheHag, do you owe me money?
  4. How about video of naked Hooters girls in the Fort Bragg tunnel?
  5. Nathan isn't too much of a geek, but his feet are the absolute worst smelling things on this planet. You have NOTHING on the Ass!! Chuck
  6. I found this picture saved on my phone. Who's butt is this and where the hell did he get those extremely stylish swoop shorts? Man, those shorts are the shiznit! Chuck PS: Thanks for the hook-up!
  7. Agreed. Make sure you stay canted slightly toward the airplane, not standing straight up, to get that upward glide.
  8. that was what I was thinking. you won't catch me dead sporting around in my suit in the theater. Now, sporting around in my Pantz is another matter altogether.
  9. I will be sitting in the lobby of the Carmike theater on Friday afternoon for the premier of the new Tomb Raider movie. I am taking my SF-3 and my BM rig, a TV/VCR with all my wingsuit movies, and a display for what we have at our dropzone. I am thinking that my gear will be incredibly popular with the whuffos and paratroopers. Chuck
  10. "do you want to see my wing thingie?"
  11. Do a search at the bottom of this page. There are several threads on that subject.
  12. I am pretty sure your hot tub has been empty since you left. Empty of water and people. Actually, I don't know if the house is even there anymore.
  13. Nope, the problem is that they do not record the freefall times I get on every single wingsuit dive, other than incredibly dirty flocks with newbies. I am going to wear the Neptune on the front of my left arm and use it as an alti. Chuck
  14. Andrea, when did YOU buy a bootie suit?
  15. BWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA! Vanilla Ice! I am dieing! Anyway, I can definitely attest to the fact that Kieth Fay is the epitome of "kramer." Chuck
  16. Yes, that is typical Fantasy Fest stuff. A good friend of mine, Raphael did the "chain" one for sure. They regularly do body painting at The Garden of Eden, the clothing optional bar on top of "The Bull" on Duval street in Key West
  17. I always jump with at least one visual alti, but I don't look at it until breakoff on most occasions. My "internal closk" works pretty good, even with the incredible amount of disparity between the "work" dives I do and my BirdMan flights. I always wear an audible now and rely on it to as great a degree as I dare. I have never been caught low due to an audible failure, but that may be because I generally err on the side of caution. I can't afford to get caught low on any work dive or wingsuit dive, so therefore I always seem to be the monkey looking at his alti towards the end of my RW formation dives as well. Chuck
  18. Pass or die, monkey lip! Somebody we actually like needs to take over the loft. Chuck
  19. Just got told that half of the GK 4-way's last-year rigs failed the test. This is not joke. Check your shit. Chuck
  20. Denise is pretty cool. She is burning up the roads this year in search of skydiving fun.
  21. That's sort of like the timeframe it takes to break any physical addiction, or so I have always been told. That said, there are just some people, actually a lot of them, who are obsessive compulsive and have "no off switch". It is incredibly hard for those people to break the pattern. Chuck
  22. I am bringing a lappie with a card, but it will be staying in The Rancho Deluxe
  23. Brian's canopies are all love/hate. Everyone I know who sticks with them for a while really love them, Several people even regularly jump them with their wingsuits, like Eric. In the end, it's all about what works for you. Try everything and then make your own decision. Chuck "used to own a Vengeane"
  24. As I am not a "techie", I still find it odd that you who are still even remotely trust your ProTracs. Hell, even an intermediate flier can outfly the thing, so why even bother. As Lou said, why not just run the counter on your video? Bottom line is we all need our Neptunes... Peace, Chuckie BM-I (among other things)
