    Well someone has to ask............how did your camera come off at 10000'????

    My wife has made one tandem, and it took me 5 1/2 years to finally get her in the plane. She said she would never do it again but if I ever get a tandem rating she might.

    I always thought that the danger factor and the slight chance of death was part of the attraction.

    1. Avoid the rain. or 2. Ball up, cover face and scream like little girl. or 3. Buy full face helmet.

    Everything in the video vault, and all of the pics for that matter says access denied, is this normal? Do I need special access to view these?

    Speaking of firefly, is there web site down????? I am shopping for a new suit and without a website there are out of the running.

    Just looking for some opinion's. I have narrowed the list down to three, but if you know of a better suit please let me know. Out of tony suit's, bev suit's, and the camera suit by skyhi visual productions. Which one is the best in your opinion? As far as how it fly's, construction and durability, etc. I will be ordering one in a couple of weeks and figured it was worth some feedback before I do. Thanks.

    The only problem I can think of is that info-lithium batteries have a shorter life in the cold, so ya might want a couple so that one can always be on the charger.

    I am assuming that this is the same software that come with the sony cam that I just bought and I don't have anything good to say about it yet because it does not seem to want to work right, but I imagine if I sit down and play with it for a while it may coroperate.

    Want in one hand, shit in the other, and see which one fills up first!

    Lost a free bag and pilot chute, tried to find it but I followed my main down. Besides I would much rather get the main back anyday, freebag's are cheap!

    Pay attention, take notes, and don't freeze up on the jumps. .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!

    For a while it will just be for screwing around but I have been looking and the top loaders are definitly the way to go. I also think that the abilty to hold a memory card for still's is an option that I will go with. Although I am not sure if you can trigger the camera feature via the lanc port or not, Either way you can pull still off of the raw footage. I have a camera jedai at the d.z. who will be getting questions as well. thanks for all of the feedback, I am going to cruise the pawn shops and see what people have unloaded after x-mas.

    thanks for all of the advice. I think that I will be going with a sony............so now the question turns to what extra's i.e. features on the camera that are good to have.

    I am in the market for a new camera, and out of all of the new mini d.v. camcorders I just wanted to know who has tried what and which one's work and which ones to stay away from. Any feedback would be appreciated.

    There are plenty of websights, although I cannot remember them off the top of my head. Just search for skydive history and trivia and I'm sure you will find what you need.

    I was up in the stands. You three did an outstanding job. I handed out a ton of cards and flyers. Although the only one that made it to the t.v. was john, but the tandem did make it to espn's highlight reel. Oh, and thanks for letting me help you pop that canopy's cherry!

    I was bored, and needed to find a good group of drunks to hang with!
