  1. Did you think uploading a crappy video of your "skydive" with your profile stating you have less than 100 jumps, would go over well with the DZ community? Seriously? You have been around here long enough to know thats a bad idea. BASE 1384
  2. Maybe work on being able to keep with a 2 way before trying anything else, such as a camera. Just a thought. BASE 1384
  3. Youll look really cool when you pound into the ocean and drown Or get hung in tow behind one of those Ad banner planes! BASE 1384
  4. Your right you cant argue with the numbers. The numbers say the Sabre2 is one of the top jumped canopies today. When you have that many of them out there, there will be more people talking about it (good or bad) than say a Storm (which hasent necessarily been around long enough to develop a complete picture) If you are not concerned with flight characteristics, only openings, I would get a Spectre. I wouldnt modify the slider though-they (usually) open plenty slow. BASE 1384
  5. lol me too! to the OP, it could be that you hear more stories of slammers on the Sabre family, because between the two, there is a SHIT load of them being jumped. The pocket slider on my Sabre1 makes it open absolutely perfect. I never actually jumped it without the mod, didnt feel it was worth waiting to see if I would need it BASE 1384
  6. HEY DAVE BROWN! I never got to thank you for free drinks at summerfest! i should thank you anyway-i went for the crown mmmmm BASE 1384
  7. True but the coach usually (D1) is making the school a lot more money than the Nobel laureates. That football money probably paid for the research of those Nobel laureates. And i could be way off because i don't even know what the fuck a laureate is! BASE 1384
  8. yeah but sex is free For most people anyway BASE 1384
  9. You forgot your attachment
  10. The voice of experienced wisdom speaks. Exactly. Stunts like these should only be done by very experienced skydivers with at least 94 skydives BASE 1384
  11. This was shown live on MTV for Jackass's tribute to Evel Knievel. (the event was live, not the jump). I kind of doubt they would use the same footage for a new movie. BASE 1384
  12. I think its just what Im looking for! http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/classifieds/detail_page.cgi?ID=69932;d=1 BASE 1384
  13. psh id rather watch the kitty cat dance! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DpA2tMrQ4RU or hamster on a piano anyone? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRzTfgds0UI BASE 1384
  14. Nice! I never knew that they could use the starter to keep the props even with the wings. And yup... i think that is a AN-2 BASE 1384
  15. quit. that job is probably not worth what that would cost. BASE 1384
  16. Two of these instructors didn't downsize from their first canopies for almost 1000 jumps and have encouraged others to do the same. Well yea....thats why they have to buy really small canopys for their first ones! BASE 1384
  17. Nice Bad ass finale though! BASE 1384
  18. Oh... haha... good luck with that. It's not going to happen Oh stop being so negative. All he has to do is fly into them, hold onto the pax harness then cutaway his main. after that its Mr. Bill as usual BASE 1384
  19. Lay your rig out like you were going to pack it. Rotate the container 360 degrees in line with your risers and lines (e.g. grab the BOC and pull it up over the yoke and keep going). You now have a stepthrough. Don't forget to take it back out. :) So whats a flip through? BASE 1384
  20. I thought this possiblity was made possible by the collins lanyard, which this system does not have. No? BASE 1384
  21. I packed my buddy a stepthrough earlier this year. Oops. Definatly not my normal course of action, but it still happend. This is skydiving. You want to make damn sure you dont have a step through.....DONT SKYDIVE. pussy. BASE 1384
  22. I thought it was pretty good. Sorty corny at parts, but overall pretty funny. I think my favorite part was at the begining at starbucks BASE 1384
  23. lol it took me a good portion of the clip to realize who that was. I must still be drunk BASE 1384
