will pay for high quality skydiving pictures

Thanks guys, I've search for it and it seams to have a small accuracy problem with opening altitude. Still nice to learn some new things -

Hey Steveorino, In the attached picture (that I've got from your website) I've noticed an electric gadget that seams to be attached to the left riser cover. What's that? Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls! -
Plain english: the white comes from the white paper. If the paper is not white the thing will not work Is that english enough? Don't hesitate to ask for details if you want to delve more into the subject. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

Yeah, it counts!

Yes the paper it's white. CMYK are the base colors for printers. RGB are the base colors for monitors. Do a test open Adobe Photoshop make a new white RGB image then convert it to CMYK and look on each channels (CTRL-1,2,3,4). They are all black so this means that the color white has no projection on CMYK base. If the paper is not white CMYK will not work. ... I think Edit to add: It's that for sure. I've made a new test (just for you BIGWAY) with a 60% grey image in RGB Base. The result is 40% on the black channel and 0% in the others channels from the CMYK base . K stands for black Edit some more: This means that the printer colors fades to white when the printer is almost empty and the screen colors fades to black when the screen it's way too old, which is true.

I totally agree with you! You can die from just going down the stairs but this doesn't make going down the stairs on average a dangerous action. I know because I got 20000+ stairs under my belt (but who's counting) and still going (yeah baby, beat that - you can tell that I hate false modesty when it comes to stairs) and I have to say to all the other stairs users out there that after all those years I still like it and that I'm doing it just like I use too when I was younger Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

Question for all of you ZP fliers out there: After you get a ZP wing wet from snow or water, when you guys get home do you put your wing out to dry for a couple of hours? Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

Really, this happens at dz? This means that I hang out on the wrong DZ. And I thought it was the coolest DZ ever and now I find out that you guys have this! This is like 100% not fare!!! Is it possible to import or rent the 2 main subjects? I can provide all the beer barrels myself and hell I'll even throw in a picnic table if they find it to be more suitable for the event itself. And that's because I'm a good person and I like to give picnic tables!

Sweet! Here's for a good reason to drink a cold one.[Beer][Beer]! Cheers! Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

Recreational&shit: Today I've received my new wing
-
Sorry for puting more wood on the fire but ... If I understand correctly there is a BIG diff between flaring a canopy with toggles and rear risers. I was thinking that everything just scales down from toggles input to rears input. Like if 0 is no toggle input (just remove the slack from the steering lines) and if 100 is the stall point with toggle input and if the flaring sweet spot is around 40 I've imagined that the input distance gets smaller, when moving from toggles to rears input but the ratios remains the same. My assumption was not true, wasn't it? In the next season I was planing of doing some rear risers landings. Now I'm thinking that this manoeuvre is for experienced pilots only. Is it safe for someone like me to try a rear-riser landing? If is not recomanding to do so with my limited experience, in your oppinion is it better to cut away when I have a steering line broken? Does canopy control lessons covers in practice those aspects? Cheers, Jean-Arthur Deda. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

Can you give us any examples so that, us the less fortunate ones can relate upon and pretend to be happy before going to sleep? Is that too much to ask? Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!

My feeling is that you are being render a bad guy for the wrong reasons. Sometimes it's easy to spiral down as a bad guy just because you are not so constructive to someone enthusiasm. If I understood right what you were saying (and correct me if I am wrong) was that floridadiver should chill and give some time to the sport to reveal itself and not rush in. I also agree with the your dating analogy. You BETTER let time do it's thing in a relationship before even thinking about bringing the heavy stuff. It's called the time test and usually good things that are meant to be survive the time test. But then again what the fuck do I know!! I only have 20 jumps! floridadiver: I didn't jump since November due to winter temperatures. There are some other sports that allows you to play with the elements and gives you a BIG smile on your face that don't cost as much as skydiving. I've begin to do kite-boarding during the winter and it really brings joy in my heart. You play with ZP, High Aspect Ratio (4:1), elliptical, cross-braced canopies-kites that makes you feel so small in this world. The 1st time I was overpowered I was so afraid and fear for my life so much as I was heading for the forest so fast (really fast) and I couldn't find the chicken-loop from my harness. The wind just pick up to 45 km/h and I was having a 10 m open cell kite. It was a blast and it happen 2 weeks ago. I never wanted to try a 10 m open cell kite after that. It's so cheap because if you just hangout with people and help them with take-off, landings or give red-bull they let you use their wings. Usually every dude has more then 1 wing. As in skydiving just hanging around, talking and sharing food & red-bull (bear has been replaced with red-bull because of the cold) will buy you so much help and friendship. People will share a lot of stuff with you and everybody wants to see you ride and want's to put a BIG smile on your face. Cheers, Jean-Arthur Deda. Lock, Dock and Two Smoking Barrelrolls!
