virgin-burner replied to Kipu's topic in Safety and Training
I usually carry two (I'm an old CRW Pup), one on my chest strap and one in my leg pocket. In my 35 years, in the sport I've only used it once... because I couldn't get a tent stake out of the ground. However, I feel confident knowing their both there. Also, I've see many people carry them in a pouch on the harness below the three rings. I believe Mirage has a pouch built into the harness... see attached. same goes for UPT; see attached “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not.

Virgin-Burner is like James Bond's drink....

If it woke you up, wouldn't it be fair to say that you were both shaken and stirred? didnt wake me up, was almost 4PM or so, i sat at my living-room table when it started shaking. and the windows made some noise since they're old. if it wasnt for my arms resting on the table and the windows, i'm not sure i would of noticed it. and it was only very short, maybe five seconds to the max. but you're completely right, a quake did in fact once wake me up, and sure as hell i was shaked AND stirred; even the dog jumped on me in panic! we're quite good here, it's not like california or anything, but yea, since they're sort of unusual.. i dont like it!!! not a bit.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

Lay off the poor sod. He's on record that he's melancholic, depressed, abused street narcotics and hallucinogens, was suicidal, and has been in psycho therapy. Lets try to help that he's not in the incidents section. Jack quite an interesting character with something to tell, aye!? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

What altitude do you pitch
virgin-burner replied to skydiver604's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
around 4000ft; which is the norm here. about 4500ft on wingsuit-jumps. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda -
Hell, if bungee-jumping is deemed risky, then...
virgin-burner replied to npgraphicdesign's topic in The Bonfire
i think it depends a lot how you sell it. they will always ask about skydiving if you mention it, then you can talk about necessary training and risk-management, quick decision-making etc. depending on the job, that is EXACTLY the person they're looking for! if it's for a job at a beauty-salon, that probably wont matter! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

indeed, sounds a lot like it! even if a swiss-french knows how to speak german, THEY WILL NEVER! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

"les welsch" and "the welsh" is not quite the same.. "les welsch" is a swiss-germans word for a swiss-french; and usually we think of them as lazy, unfriendly and drunk on a steady basis.. they make a lot of (white) wine down there. so yea, a bit of swiss culture for you!

stuff only the welsch could come up! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

After a stupid comment like that I would say you are more likely to pee in yourself due your poor endowed length. Lol nice comeback! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda

and u're calling US insulting!? i think it's really time for you to step back from your keyboard for a bit and cool your head a little.. just for the record; we're not only "piloting" our canopies, but also our bodies, be that proper or not for you. i'd really like to add some more lines to that, but the discussion is too interesting to miss out on. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S. Thompson "No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
