Common knowledge that Elsinore has the hottest staff and community. Don't you read Parachutist or Blue Skies Magazine? i thought MEL wasnt there anymore!? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda -
Was the reserve, by any chance, one of the larger Optimum reserves? Not that it explains or justifies the lack of a refund, but there were some monumental delays in getting the TSO for the larger Optimum reserves, and I know several dealers were taking orders for them anyway and just waiting for production to start. So that might explain the delay in delivery of the reserve, but the non-existant refund is unexcusable. I would suggest you check with PD, and report the problem. With the serial numbers in hand of the reserves you did recieve, you should be able to determine when the order was placed with PD, and if the order was for 3 or 4 reserves. If the order was for four, and four were shipped, the guy kept or sold the 4th to someone else. If the order was only for 3, he might have pocketed the cash. You could also ask if he made any orders or placed a deposit for a reserve that the sale was never completed. I don't think PD makes a habit of sharing that type of information, but given that the dealer is failing you horribly, they might be able to give you some info pretaining to your situation. dont think it has something to do with PD or the optimum.. i know very concrete of one guy missing his main-canopy which is NOT from PD, and by the word of the company in question, it was sent out august last year. i was missing out on my main-canopy for a very long time too, i made one call to the manufacturer after numberous unanswered emails, and i havent finished describing my color-pattern, the guy one the phone knew my name and where i lived.. the manufacturer definitely has his shits together, while the dealer.. for some reason, threads about this dealer happened to get locked or disappeared pretty quickly. seems the dealer in question likes to give the same excuses over and over again, and must have about four mothers, because they all died at one point or another over the course of the last two years.. i kept on backing the guy up. i had some sort of pleasant buisness, tough i also waited very long. i dont know what is up, but i dont like what i'm seeing. edited to add: Sangis beat me to it. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

the one girl would eventually complain "any weekend or as soon as the weather is nice you're at the dz". well, i took her with me once, and she made a total ass out of herself, so it was bye-bye pretty soon.. it's what we call "AIDS" - Altitude Induced Divorce Syndrom other than that, i try to be inclusive, as long as they dont mind hanging around on the ground all day/afternoon.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

fortunately, our dz has pretty loud music itself, no need for additional systems.. just a little annoying when one of our instructors puts on her techno-stuff, i'm more for reggae when at the dz.. -
Maybe the Smiths and Wessons could come stay with you while he's gone. No, she just needs a pet; Perhaps a large Colt.

Yep, I see that one a lot too. Plenty of bench space for sitting, but all taken up with skydiving gear, while people stand around with no place to sit. Benches are for butts! and skydiving-gear is for assholes! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda -
i did it for a while, then got into that skyjumping-thing you may have heard of.. still run a cache on a nearby hill, it's very pretty up there, guess i just wanted to show people that. by the reports, all seem to think the same thing. i think it's a great way to make people go to places where they usually wouldnt go.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

That would be a bit spooky. Do you have one of those little spyhole thingummies in the door so you could see whether anyone really was trying to do that? Sadly, no. Just frosted glass. So they would totally know I am there if I went trying to peek through that It's possible it's the neighbor's door I am hearing, but it really sounded like someone jiggled the door handle. I finally turned some music on, and that is making it a little less creepy in here. Probably going to pop a movie in soon. Or clean the kitchen. Our dryer is broken so all the laundry is spread out on the counters. It's pretty comical. you cant see vampires through frosted glass, but they can very well see you! got some garlic in the house? wont help, that's an urban myth. same goes for crucifixes and stuff, only thing that helps is if you get all naked and run around the house three times. make sure to get video so you can show it to future vampires that are unaware that you already practiced this ritual. and while you're at it, post it on here, so we can all vouch for you.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

If you look statistics only we should eat sh1t, some billions of flies can not be wrong. I also jump some canopies which has a reputation. Should i stop jumping those because of bad reviews of other ppl? According to steve, yes. They're only good for car-covers.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.
