To play devils advocate for a moment
-
Your 6'1 160 is a whole lot better than my 5'9 180. It was the most fun jump IMO for me. I knew I would never win but I had to play, You have a possibility of winning its worth the $20. I will loan you my V-2 if it fits but you can't just throw on a vamp and be competitive the first jump. The vampire is different enough to warrant a minimum 10 jump adaptation when transitioning from a skyflyer or other suit, maybe more. You may fit Ira's or Dingo's better. Ira might not want to drag race and won't use the V2 if he does race.

Tom dude where you been hiding. Robi does not attack. He is the nicest guy that will ever cut a wingsuit for you. Me, well we all know I need a leash. But seriously are you going to let Eddy P get away with posting the picture of that largess naked woman?

Hell, if its bi I'm sure most of the guys on here wouldn't mind seeing a picture of this convex.

Wingsuiting at Elsinore this weekend tbe 29th and 30th
VectorBoy replied to butterflysb's topic in Wing Suit Flying
Are you sure you don't want to stick around? We are giving away free oven mitts to the first 5 flockers that show up. -
Keep in mind, quality is better then quantity in this case. Dont go out and do just "jumps". Yeah do some atmonauti it will help tremendously and you will already have that navigation part down when you add the extra nylon.

How much are you paying for your reserve repacks?
VectorBoy replied to BillyVance's topic in Gear and Rigging
Why would he go in? His rigger originally did a good job, right? ...just not recently. His overdue pack job should be just as good as his rigger's own personal overdue pack job. -
But seemingly people would rather fly a big suit at 50% (in a flock) then flying a smaller one at 90% My silly reply was a pun on the G-spot comment. But I know what you mean by more suit than the glide ratio of the flock du jur requires. Although I don't enjoy flying the slow side more than I have to. I made a comment in jest to the base on the first jump of the first Elsinore camp to lets please keep the speed up..... well boy put the gas on and everybody was in trail no closer than 20'..... I really got to watch how I joke with people, I'm just not that serious.

So does that explain the popularity of the newer larger suits as quik and easy way to get to the sweet spot? Your saying Sizes matters then?
-
what if we secretly make you base? Smile.

I'll be there to grab your ass while we drink wine in our thongs. I'm bringing the leash you are so fond of too. -
I don't mind you flying it either. Are you going to mount your CX-7 facing backwards?
-
Which means skydiving just got cheaper compared to Eloy ( compared to anywhere)
-
Word up!
-
5/8" drill bits are expensive... I use a 5/8" countersink. You can actually use any undersized drill bit you have on hand to drill a pilot hole and then ream the opening larger by twisting the tapered tail of a file slowly until the hole is the size you like.

We can make sure that PeteS takes part in the speed /distance challenge in Lodi this year. I hear he is getting good in his mach 1 ( he told me so). Of course he still has to beat out the Lodi french secret weapon to get the jack pot. You should be in too this year Charlie and you also secret agent Tony. Last year Avery and Dingo were too busy chasing "el guapo" down low to give Damien serious competition. Lets be serious and see what the mach and the vamp are capable of.
-
That is a very narrow minded statement. The V suit lost last year to the M1. Kris. Wasn't that distance not speed?
-
Sorry...we prefer listing prices in currency that doesnt drop faster in vallue than a fridge filled with anvills All the better for a bunch of you ur-a-peons to afford to come and be on the record/s in November then isn't it?

[... He's buying furniture in May though Actually its flooring this time Ed.

...it seems it flies better if I'm not dearched, but rather flying flat? De-arching was really important in the days of the classic and the gti to get that last .75% in performance that some people had to fight for. Now some suits don't require it or that painfull stretching the suit out so much anymore. Most or the mono suits like flat better. Some newer designs like lower body focus and you just hold the arms out there somewhere until they inflate and you are good. I couldn't even tell you what the Tony suits require.

I believe I need to apologize to Lena, sadly she was right.
-
You know it wouldn't be skydiving without a few ego driven crackheads.
-
You know I've seen girls get gang tossed for a whole lot less than a fraction of your statement . Be nice and you can win a dream date with the "P" Mike unit! But you must leave sleeping Yuris sleep.
-
hehe...sorry Scott....I fear I created a monster by converting your name into a brand and photo-catagory . Yeah basically the new purple Mike, without the whole bothersome purple Mike thing, U know like safe around kids and pets.
