I'm still going to jump at lodi, good people live, work and jump there.... If your really that sure about your DZ maybe ask to see all there maintinance records on the planes they fly, make sure they have spent the money and are fully compliant with every reg out there. then come back here and tell us how much safer your DZ is to jump at then B & C's. I'm guessing 95% of you won't have the balls to ask questions about your planes and ask to see the maintinace books, its a lot easy to shoot a dz down when you have never been there, have never jumped there, and have nothing better to do inbetween self harming yourself and masterbating to your witty / negative comments on FB, and dZ.com

Thanks for explaining this to me, and not shooting down the questions, your correct with only 3 years in the sport i am still learning. To be fair though lets hold are fucking horses here, 2 of the biggest commerical airlines in europe got fined for this kind of stuff http://www.pprune.org/archive/index.php/t-170603.html this is easyjet there slightly bigger than lodi, do i think its right, not really .. but will i jump at lodi still, damm straight... if you have met bill talk to me about what you think of the guy, not from the rumours that you have heard. I have no idea about maintiance scehdules or how it works, unlike all the other posters on here, who seem so very sure there planes they fly in are 110% good to go all the time, My head up my ass but then the sun shines from it, Uless your checking the dz's maintinace schedules personally, most of you have no idea about the planes that you get into each week, maybe we'll hear more of this when the faa comes to visit your dz!! -

I'm pro lodi, so take this comment for what you will. Bill can be an asshole, but he's done more for skydiving then anyone I have ever met. Was there corrosion found on the wing, or was there no note of inspection, or what. What were the critical parts that needed replacing?? were they fucked, or past there manufactured life limits, or past there recomended life limit. Or had they been inspected by a mechanic and deemed ok? It would be great to get some more facts on this, if anyone has got any?? Pm if need be. Has this plane been grounded?? or is this a report from last year?? -
I have no idea if you have leg movement or not.... your tracking dive has very little drive, due to leg position. i'm guessing you are tracking with more head down movement as in Italian in style. so those kinds of speeds are consistent with that style. good luck with it all

If you had the time and could cutaway the camera, then the PC would have enough force to llift both your helmet or and your camera and deploy your parachute ... all depending on PC / entanglement / time obviously..

Why is thor being racial discriminated monsieur bill von wiki pedia is your friend... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thor he is no less fairytail then jesus, god, or satan and allah etc etc... just because he was not taught at your sunday school. -
I'm all holistic and hate exploitation blah blah blah.... where's the nearest stip club... hahaha your funny.

It's a bit scary that some of you on the forums really think that its the communists who are to blame... Maybe you should stop buying all there products... Its a global problem, although the 3rd world countries are still developing nations so have there own problems right now... like feeding themselves. Do little things to try and cut your carbon footprint down, drive less, iinsulate your house, use solor power... it be nice to have a day in texas without the massive smog cloud!! Why some of you are so anti making the smallest of effots is beyond me, regardless of the propaganda comming from both sides of the fence, i think we know that poloution is bad, so cutting back on it is good?? its really pretty simple, but clearly not simple enough for some

very funny advert!! reminded me of battle royal 2.. classic

As sadly proved on the latest base fatallity, bridal sngged on go pro, from a lowish object..... I'm not sure if i mind low time jumpers wearing cameras, but i think they should all have cutaway systems on them..

Brown people. The US is in the business of killing brown people. Nationallity doesn't matter. Are the yellow people included to, or do you think they got over that during the 50's and 60's, at this rate they'll be onto the whiteys by around 2020.... as there is not defense of canada maybe you guys could peace keep there first

Hey mike, i had a cool tip from my Chief instructor, but its only relavent if your on a bench set up, try bringing your knees back along the bench so your farthest point fwd is your pelivs from the hip down, i have found this to work a lot better in getting the laterels super tight. (maybe too much so) but it works for me..
-
Thanks for the post dave, I've been looking at the way i adjust my harness and have found a simular thing with regards to the lowers attachment point, and the more control you have, if the harness is adjusted correctly. Still learning every day!! And thanks for the video to the poster, its cool to see somone show stuff when it does not go to plan so the newer (maybe older aswell) TI's can learn something new
-
great post rob, but hold your ponys here... I'm guessing your drunk, or i've taken the hah!! hah!! aspect of your post the wrong way the girl was not fat.. having a poorly adjusted harness, (be it laterals, or as mentioned student harness) is not really an acceptable excuse when you side spin it into the ground. maybe you should think about going over the exit just before leaving the plane, maybe after 4300 jumps you have gotten lazy.... your student having a poor body position does not really mean that you should mimmick it. Your post is worthless, and thats my opinion after only 100 tandem jumps.
-
Good job in staying with us... help me out here... I'm somehwat worried that you don't check out your three ring system every jump... but you've stated you'll be more thorough it the future so we'll move on.. The body positon of your self and the studnet looks really strange, both of you have your knees cocked downards in a knee flying type of config.. and then on roatation, it looks like your laterals are not done up properly, and your bottom connectors are loose. the movement she gets seems to be massive. Am I missing something here!! i'm new to TI work myself only 610 jumps, its more of a question than a dig at you.. Thanks

I agree.... and any decent coach would want to see them with some stable and controled belly flying, before flipping them about the sky. Well that was easy!!! What are you feelings on the new york mosque?? I think its a great idea ;).... (i'll see you at the bonfire)
-
I understand where your going with this... but air oriantation and speed are relative to your insturction given.... and with the other people on the dive with you. The danger of hitting other people is always there, regardless of your oriantation, if i were to collide with you in freefall belly to earth i would be going around 130mph, whats 20mph between friends (sit fly 150mph) (i'm a fatty) Hence the reason i said to get a coach, even if you do have 300 jumps or 1000 jumps you will more then likely be all over the place whilst trying to get stabillity and oriantation, on learning to freefly. You'll become a bettter flyer if you can control your entire body in any oriantaion, rather than just belly to earth. Why not start learning early and mix it up a little. ??
