  1. Plastic is not as durable as a cordura wraped stiffener. My old vector had its reserve flap plastic split from pin inspectors "slapping" the flap closed. And it would be ugly.
  2. I got a different pocket made of cordura, webbing and two rings from bone head. Its easier to get it out to change settings on it without haveing to stretch the older neoprene.
  3. This has been done. I haven't seen the video but the bird man is a perris regular and the rider was Miko from the brazilian freefly crash test dummies. He rodeoed, he stood up and after a long flight dove off the front of the wingsuiter. Although I haven't seen it both of them had video of it. Trippy

    Whose ass?

    Its cuz YOU were pushing on their belly bottons .... huh? Admit it!
  5. Yeah, that story you told me is really frightening! Wonder how many shorts were carrying a brown load in that Suburban after it careened around you and ended up off roading it before stopping! ltdiver I counted at least one but I didn't count anybody "in" the suburban . Glen
  6. Damn you should have bought my jeep off me since it has proven to repell stop sign transgressors at that very same deadly 3-way stop. Glen

    Whose ass?

    I've heard those very same words uttered by many a tired and hungry gambler standing in buffet lines myself.
  9. I didn't know Michele was troubled by an EVIL weenie.

    Whose ass?

    Silly Michele if you look closely in the window of the bomb behind him, Joe is getting a dual hiney standing"O" vation. Everpopular at most eaterys but most welcomed at the buffet lines in Vegas from friends to friends. Friends are just makin joey feel at home.
  11. Well then Stacy do YOU know who were the drummers in spinal tap?

    Tricks

    I like forward flips some. Half the time I do barrel rolls I end up plummeting so I only engage on solos. Back flying I can do fairly well but I'm on a classic so its not a very flat flite. I would like to work on snap heading changes. Lou diamond pulls pretty high up and this weekend I circled back for a fly-by I was very efficient but still lost too much alti in the smooth carve back. If only I could do xtreme flat turns like them dadgum UFO's they got in the desert.
  13. Any news on freefly or hybrid records? Glen
  14. Bet he dose not know who were the five original drummers for the band spinal tap? Glen
  15. 4:0:0 Four jumps at the start of the boogie on friday with Island cool, wingnut and wingsuit cinematograher lou diamond. 0 dz.com records to break, hybrid, freefly or otherwise and Zero dinners or drunken nig noggery for me due to work. Its not about the money but the way I fly I really need the medical. Greatful for what I got I guess but it looks like its gonna go off. It sucks to not be there....... more. Glen
  16. Making custom fenders for his harley on the english wheel then TIG welding on the fittings for them. Or making a chainsaw start ( any chainsaw ) on the third pull. How to have a weekend of a lifetime with several attractive young ladies for less than 7 dollars in thailand.
  17. Welcome to the other, other darkside chris. I remember jumping hard just to get the required jump numbers just to take Kims class when BMI came out last year, I was already "hooked with just one look". The follow up flight was even better than I had hoped. As far as using wing suits in demos I was wondering when some wingsuiters were going to perform a formation flight with several members using smoke. The plot thickens. Glen
  18. And then you would have a wonderful coaster collection too. Glen

    Lucky Me!

    No you can't have my Bud light! Glen
  20. She is not a real skydiver cuz she would have let them rebuild her to the tune of less than seven millions and spent the rest on jump tickets.
  21. Got some time in a trainer. The thing about helicopters is that they NEVER stay in a steady state. Every control input is followed up with many other inputs just to stay were you want to put it, again and again. In a plane you can trim it for climb, cruize, approach desent and leave it there hands off. Like your canopy it will seek out the airspeed and heading you chose for it and stay there barring any atmospheric intervention. helicopters are trying to spin themselves out of the sky. Pilots are very much like those one man band kind of guys playing the tuba a banjo a tamborine and a snare drum at the same time. Great deal of fun though.
  22. You know if we get the Van we could launch a four way horney gorrilla, each sitter with a backpacker that slides up to arm pit the 4 in the base add headowners to that four. And this goes plenty fast for the head downers. If we get the van we can do a lot of things. Eli and fritz will be pretty busy with their pylon skills camp on saturday, so if you need them its friday or sunday. And lately Eli has been putting together some kickin hybrids. Glen
  23. buy your own airplane. It would pay for itself over time sds Sorry wrong, flying is even more expensive in japan and they don't allow general aviation but in this teenie little strip of air space for the whole country. Be thankful for what you got in terms of aviation freedoms and services. No other country comes close. Glen
  24. Buzz " its not flying its falling with style" Lightyear. Glen
  25. NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONO! Yes Stacy she wasn't really sick on her birthday. She was at her secret evil indoctrination ceremony hosted by the prince of the darkside himself.............. And why wasn't I invited? Glen
