  3. So, you made it to the Yellow?? Go to France and you will learn a bit more about proper driving ....... THAT'll teach you maybe russia's worse than italy, in europe, nothing else is as bad. In Russia, you MUST have a dash-mounted cam for your protection. worst place for driving - Saudi . . . its just NUTS! italy may be better if they only had donkey-karts and camels to ride.. italians are fucking INSANE! in croatia on the other hand, the locals were super relaxed; if one overtook like a fucking idiot, for sure it was an italian, or a german maybe.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

  6. it was the scariest part of my vacation! “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. ..go fucking die in a ball of fire! that is all. yours sincerely, v.b. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
  8. it's way less than an impact with planet earth! cant believe no-one came up with that 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
  9. Are you talking about the various Pakistani operations that sell cheap knock offs of better known brand skydiving apparel? nope, i'm talking about a "reputable" manufacturer.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

  10. apparently it's "political" and got moderated accordingly. i see it from an ethical point of view; and i would NOT buy such a product. also, if a company doesnt do much more than copying existing designs while others lay the groundwork, that's another reason to steer away from such a company, even if it's saving you a couple dollars in the short run, in the long run, you as a customer will end up with poorer products. just something to think about. i dont like singing praises for something that i dont know all the details about. that is not cool in my books. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

  11. say, there's a company making gear out there that employs child labour to make their product, of course such a company will not advertise this on their website, would this fact matter to you or would you not care, or to keep it in line with the the poll-title, would it influence your (informed) buyers decision or not. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

  12. in comparison, PF makes their suits in slovenia, paying more than double what the average worker there is earning; and delivers a top-notch product. in addition, robi doesnt copy existing designs, unlike others. “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. they probably have to sell their asses to tourists too, since they dont make enough money by sewing several hundred to thousands of dollars suits to earn a living, so i doubt the "virgin"-factor, but hey, at least matt gets a nice cut from it! “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. yea, why get the original when you can buy the copy - plus, you get to support the vietnamese people, namely the 10 to 12yrs old childworkers the company employs.. “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. he's just being your typical dz dot com knows-it-all(-better).. “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. arco/brento of course! i'm tagging along again with the basecourse i did a year ago, this time with my fiancé; plan is to jump in the mornings and then hang out with her in the afternoons.. she doesnt jump. in croatia we're staying in a guesthouse, italy will be camping probably. there's also some good climbing, i think you're into that too? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

  18. nice job on dropping the main almost into the peas and not into the forest behind it!
  19. I think what he is getting at is that in any discussion regarding a particular skydiving incident eventually someone will claim that a skyhook would have prevented the injury or fatality, in the same fashion that in a heated political debate eventually someone will call their opponent a Nazi. With that said I have yet to hear of a fatality caused by a skyhook. But many fatalities could have been prevented with the use of a skyhook. you are a fascist nazi! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not.
