I agree, it is nice when someone with experience takes some us that are younger in the sport and shows us the rationale behind the recommendations and then give solid advice on how to get to that point.

Making homemade candy with the kids...that is our one tradition that has remained strong annually. Even my 18 year old hangs around to help out.

Totally sweet. You guys down in Mexico right now? For me

I tore 3 of the ligaments in my knee and had to have reconstructive surgery. I now have a new ACL graft/repaired MCL/Lateral Meniscus which they say takes really a year to heal fully. The orthopedist was also very realistic in saying most won't stay out of their extreme sport for that long and said I could go back in 6 months ---- with a lot of hard work and therapy everyday I am back before that....and now jump with a splint to protect the graft. The difficulties for me have been getting the timing on my flare back. My first jump back I upsized 2 sizes and had a nice landing and no problem. I downsized by one size and have had ok landings but not the landings that I was having before. Again, I will be on this canopy for quite a while before I go back to my 168. The other problem I have encountered is due to my brace. It has changed my flying dynamic a little bit. I believe for me it will be more difficult until I can be jumping consistently ---as we are limited here with jumping with the winter weather.

I have never flown a tri so can't say much about it....just make sure that you have it checked out by a rigger before you purchase ----- linesets run about 300$ give or take........so figure you will need a new one of those immediately if not in the near future....hence the rigger comment.....those guys will tell you how soon they need to be replaced. oh and don't forget about the time that you won't be able to jump while those lines are being replaced.......my hubby's canopy was out for about 12 weeks to get relined ---- obviously there were other things wrong with it, just more of another thing to think about.

As a former waiter/bartender, I really feel for people that have to work on holidays. I make it a point not to buy anything on these days. Hope you have a good holiday despite that you have to work.

I seem to be on a roll tonight as well......I can always blame the wine....truth is sometimes things are just down right funkie.

I would rather be spending turkey day with my skydiving buddies than working....but I am working tomorrow......sigh.....that's ok, hopefully you have a great day and all of my skydiving family knows how much I love them and appreciate all that they do....they keep me sane and are more of a family than the dysfunctional one present by biology (with the exception of the kiddos) ----Happy turkey day everyone...and thank you all for accepting me ; despite my multiple idiosyncracities and flaws DPH # 2 "I am not sure what you are suppose to do with that, but I don't think it is suppose to flop around like that." ~Skootz~ I have a strong regard for the rules.......doc!

I was thinking she belonged in the pregnant and raging bitch thread in the women's forum....is that bad? Sorry, I just think that is really wrong. It just seems odd to me to invite family over and then tell them the day before that you aren't celebrating with them anymore.......again......this is me ranting instead of you...maybe it is the wine but seriously...that is totally fucked up on the day before turkey day!
