  1. dude, u're so way off.. just make sure you get video, including close-ups, i've never seen someone splat; if for nothing at all, your dead could have educational purposes! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  2. and THAT is the part i have most problems with.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  3. as i said, showers help with hygiene.. and those "complications" that you speak off are very rare. there's simply NO need for it! and for all i know, it's with most muslims and jews, even if they're only "3-day"-jews as you call them.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

  4. It makes us feel So Fresh and So Clean and helps reduce gynecological inflamations and infections.
  5. the common conception is that an XF should be loaded at 1.8; probably that's why they didnt let you jump it. they had concerns it wouldnt perform as advertised.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

  7. i wonder why that is if half the american population probably has immigrated from the UK hundreds of years ago.. just because half the african woman are circumsised and have been for hundreds of years it means that it's a good practice. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

  8. . Crossfire II 169 Loaded at 1.54. and I know the risk lord knows I've heard it enough. Don't think that I'm going to jump straight into this canopy and start tugging on risers. Doings some hop and pops and learning the canopy up high. Followed by flying it dosal in the pattern like "harnes turns only" isn't going to make me majically go into a steep turn just above the ground. Trying to get coaching should also show that I'm not a know it it all, and I still want to learn. I know my limits and I stay under them. dude, i'm really everything but the poster-boy for sane canopy-progression, or at least what it's considered here by the "canopy-nazis". but an XF, at 150 jumps? good luck, you certainly have more guts than i have! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

  9. For most people it isn't a religious thing. what is it then? a barbaric custom from the middle ages? nobody in europe would do that by free choice, except the jews and the muslims.. well, free choice, i dont know how free that choice is if it's done to you as an infant or a young teenage-boy.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  10. not only they are "FUCK YEAH!" “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  11. i suppose the "fag" could be mistaken for some profanity.. fit's perfectly to "Fashion Aware Gravitists" tough. ever seen "Team America"? the "Film Actors Guild" gave me the idea, so i went a little creative! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  12. i think it IS barbaric, my doctor wanted to do it, my mom opposed; i'm glad she did! except for some very rare cases there is absolutely no need to. you wouldnt cut off all the fingers of your right hand if your religion would demand that? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  13. unfortunately, FB took the page down for whatever reason.. but we were quite a couple! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  14. after all, i'm FAG #1; i got standards to live up to! and yes, i'm happy! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  15. For a few jumps there are two instructors. At my Otter dropzone the reserve side instructor is on the camera step while the main side instructor is in the airplane beside the student. sorry, i misread the OP, thought it was on a later AFF with only one instructor; my bad! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  16. hold on, i'll make you REALLY jealous now! optimum reserve in there, picked that one over others coz it fits the color-pattern better than the usual white ones.. gosh, i'm such a gear-whore! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  17. not sure if it's quite your size.. but it sure is PRETTY! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  18. errr, isnt it normal for the AFFI to be IN the plane while the student is kneeling in the door or so? or how should i put that mental picture in my head? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  19. i wouldnt want to change mine for a thing in the world! well, maybe a crossfire, but not just yet! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  20. Yep, but you guys are being the canopy Nazis. i think it's time to get the popcorn out.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  21. Oh, and we used to have a sense of humor too! Thanks for proving my point. your evil grin or smirk is easy to see on my screen. probably first rule of communication over the interwebz, if you try to be ironic or sarcastic, mark it as such. and even then it probably gets misunderstood. apparently there ARE actually people thinking this way. reading around here proves that point. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  22. Thats the point its really none of your bussines. Untill someone starts to become dangerous to himself or others Under Canopy, who is anyone to judge what they can and can not jump. well, they told you you couldnt, and you couldnt; so they can because they can!? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  23. +1 i've never had the urge to do one, and the one i witnessed.. well, after that, even less so; for a good reason! a PC-entanglement around both jumpers legs is not really my definition of "fun", especially not if you're exiting at or below 3500ft.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  24. not sure, but i dont think that's unlawful? both had a rig with two parachutes! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  25. dayum! and that's a news channel? they couldnt find news if it was stuck up their asses.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
