  1. Hard to believe that the person with 1000 of jumps would ask this question. How about at least putting on normal RSL for a change??? I've seen and heard so many cases where normal RSL would've got something out. It is a shame to go in with reserve tray fully closed. And all of those anti-RSL people... Line-twist on reserve doesn't happen due to RSL, I've had five cutaways with RSL and I've had one linetwist on my reserve. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  2. 33 mph. After that it gets really interesting. Minor mistake becomes huge mistake, ie, if you plane out high or hook it too low. Different DZ policy will change my wind limit that as well. If I can hook it, I can go up to 33 mph, I never had chance to go above 15-20 mph doing straight in apporach or a surge, that is when I was stuck at the DZ that only allows surge technique, and that DZ's policy was to stay on the ground after 17 mph.

  3. if you don't feel comfortable doing, unstable exit, and get stable and than throw the drogue, you shouldn't be taking 90 year old ex-president off the chopper. People talk about bad landing, but landing was fine, TI almost stood up, passenger had weak legs to stand up and take couple steps. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  4. The landing was decent by the TI, I thought. However, did he somehow attach that drogue to the helicopter??? You should throw your drogue after getting stable, not throw the drogue first and hope for the best. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  5. Also I just wanna add that sometimes, the chemistry between the two just doesn't match. I considered myself as an asshole AFFI, than again some people thought that I was one of the best and thank me afterwards. Teaching first jump course takes a different set of mind set. I feel like most of the AFFI doesn't wanna deal with first jump course after so many of them. When there is student's safety involved, and if AFFI doens't really give a fuck anymore, than that AFFI should stop teaching first jump course. Just wanna add, some AFFI are way more strict vs others, I found this out and I only requested two AFFi while I was going thru the program. These two were very lenient, in terms of task that I was supposed to do. Even the turns weren't perfect or some jumps I pulled little below 6000ft but they passed me, and telling me that my turns will improve and pulling 500ft below weren't such a big deal. Request different AFFI and see what happens. By the time you get thru 25 jumps and make new friends at the DZ, you are not even gonna associate with the guy anyways. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  6. NZaerosport would've got you a canopy within 3 days, atleast at westcoast. PD would've done the same as well, except their delivery takes 5-6 days. How does NZ get there stuff from across the globe way quicker than PD does??? Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  7. I believe one has too many lines to go fast. It makes louder noise thru the turns tho, if that makes you happy. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  8. His blue HMA lineset was legit, I remember. Pete Swan at Lodi, his lineset is pretty legit as well. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  9. Sorry dude, but sometimes you get a lemon. I had the worst opening canopy EVER, Cobalt 150. I sold it to someone for 100 dollar, I told him how shitty the opening was and told him to use it as a ground launch canopy or car cover. This guy jumped it, and loved it, and he wanted another one. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  10. No, what I'm talking about was floating on facebook about 2-3 years ago. After that video or picture came out, we changed our policy to NOT to wear Gopro when you are doing main side. Until AFF level 4. and that lead to talk about how one person went in at the bridge due to PC wrapping around the gopro mount. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  11. I think the law and the aftermath are very harsh, so that people are very deterred to commit such a crime. It is what it is, all these rapist should've went on xhamster.com and just beat it all day long. But everyone's brain is wired differently right?? Would all of these felons have committed a crime if the punishment was death sentence??? Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  12. I guess you can add more rotation and do low-ish 360. I jumped sabre1 150 for like 25 jumps, while my other canopy was being relined. What I remembered was, it opened like a brick and flew like brick, specially with non-existing rear riser authority compared to Katana 150 that I was jumping at the time. Unless you are trolling, you sound like you are about to be digging into the ground, I hope someone at the dz will give you guidance. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  13. John Mccain looked so pissed on the interview the other day. lol Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  14. How is this guy creating drama??? He is out 750 bucks. 750 bucks. That's alot of jumps. I would do the same thing. To all of you that says 750 isn't much money, than why not donate to this guy 750 bucks??? Donation sounds much better than getting 750 bucks ripped off. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  15. Yeah, come July and January. I wanna see who will wanna fly in open tunnel when there is recirc available close distance. It gets sooooooooo cold and sooooooo fucking hot. Nothing beats temp controlled tunnel. If the new tunnel offers same price and if it is bigger than 14ft. No one will be flying in SDAZ tunnel. But I heard that SDAZ gets electricity at dirt cheap price from near by indian reservation or something??? Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  16. 50 views and 5 votes, you guys are weak sauce. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  17. So ever had 3 way, or more???? I'm talking about sex. Seems like general consensus amongst my friend is that it happened once or twice when they were in high school or early college. Please be honest. I just wanna see the ratio. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  18. Seattle just approved 15 dollar. and they happened to legalize marijuana as well. That means, people that works at Mcdonald's in downtown only has to work little less than 4 hours to buy an 8th bag of weed. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  19. Let me guess, you've got over it, and your picture is still there probably. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  20. You have to have Sigma tandem rating in order to jump at Skydive Coastal California. So you have option of Santa Barbara, Taft, Oceanside, Perris. Why don't you try surfing?? Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  21. In a event of cutaway it flys away. Once reserve flap is opened there is nothing holding it. In fact out of my 3 out of my 5 cutaway I've had to replace it. In an event of canopy collision???? hhmmmm. I'm pretty sure that the single rubber band would break. I personally think that it is stupid to buy something for 25 bucks or more when you can do the same thing for almost free and it has been proven to work. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  22. I like my version of BHO much more Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  23. Once this thing gets built, SDAZ will have to lower their price significantly during summer and winter time. I much rather wanna fly in temp controlled recirc tunnel vs freezing ass temperature in open air tunnel. You can't compare the smoothness of the tunnel between open vs closed, it is like apple and orange almost. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  24. What's BHO??? Only BHO that I know is Butane Hash Oil. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  25. to add to this. Why don't PD only makes their break line either std or by 3 inches?? Or better yet, I think most of us, and I'm guessing like over 75% extend the control lines on velo. Why don't they fucking make STD length like 4 inches longer so that we have room to adjust. Velo control lines comes so short that if you wanna add more than 3 inches you have to change entire mid and lowers. Bullshit. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
