  1. And don't forget about all the chicks you'll score!!!!! Being a BMI is the shiznit, and the best thing about it, nobody can tell if you are a fraud or not.
  2. I can beat you in a square dancing contest.
  3. You know the Texas guys would have had a hairy sack out during something like that.
  4. With 19 wingsuit flights? Ya, he's only talking about a BMI, not the PFI (100 minimum) BMI course, Hell I'll sell him the BMI patch right off my old S-3 for 5 bucks shipping included. Then he can make $45 for the ground course, $50 in flight + slot for flashing groovy hand signals to his fellow UK skydiver buddies just so that he can make enough crazy money to pay for round trip for him and his girlfriend to Z-hills, a bunch of flocking with the Z-hills gang and a day for the couple at dizney Orlando. Shit Holmes thats how I financed my trip to Dizney. At Z-hills dey likes to fly and it be showin like a mother flocker.
  5. I've never found it anywhere near that bad, and I've docked last on 8 and 9 planes many times. Bob Yes but I'm going to guess we are referring to Crew dogs with some experience, who can get in very timely. If you were waiting for slow/low experience pokes this may take longer. I've hung and waited long enough on jumps that I was no good once my turn came finally. It all depends on how long you can hold it.
  6. We are about to roll out the door. See you flockers Thursday.
  7. This doesn't let Bob off the hook! This just buys him some time on volume 2.
  8. Stacks tend to sink out faster. If you are to be a late docker you might find yourself Hanging long term in double fronts just to stay anywhere near the formation. Have you ever just sat there pulling yourself up for a few minutes? Once in the formation you may be on a wing where you might just have to hold continious outside front riser until you are locked up from below. All of this is easy with the advantage of the 2:1s and exhausting to impossible without.
  9. You know there are more than enough pictures of us geezers posing in our living rooms or some dark corner of the dz in our new suits. I was hoping that shots of the lady flyer would include some lady flyers. Bird ladys this is your call. Show us your feathers.
  10. Deuce tell us about any other settings/experimentations you may have played with that may work in our environment with this frame? I usually don't do auto focus for skydiving, but then again I still forget the lens cap from time to time.
  11. Tomorrow Ira and myself will be down there to fly with you and your new x-mas present. its been a long time. We will see if we can talk you into joining us for Moab. Jojo we had a great time! I'll send the pics as soon as I get my act together.
  12. Whoa,....... You know if she finds them belly flyers ( all intent on touching one another ) boring she can come with us tomorrow to San Diego for some very nice flocks. We all promise not to touch her. Details of the photo shoot can be worked out there.
  13. >Hey Glen.... got my Dagger 150 in and it even fits in my >rig :)... I was a little worried about that after unwrapping >it. it's just like xmas, but better :). Tomorrow Ira and myself will be down there to fly with you and your new x-mas present. its been a long time. We will see if we can talk you into joining us for Moab.
  14. Belgeeks are cool!!!!! Love the work guys!
  15. You are right , besides I only have to miss you by a little bit and an aggressive turn at the time would have had me broadside to all three of you in the base. It was tight visual.
  16. No problems there. What would you guys think if I jumped the skyflyer this weekend? I would think you are not addicted to wingsuits if you didn't. The SF-1 is not your biggest danger. For example Getting your hands on a Vampire will be! Dangerous to the tune of the price of a state of the art modern suit. The SF-1 is at least as good as the GTI, maybe a little more demanding to get more performance but I know dudes that are still flying theirs. Its not a dud. I've never met a wingsuit I didn't like
  17. I hope you get some CReW dogs to join in. There will be quiet a few wingsuits there, enough for some good "bird-dog".
  18. I know some guys who were useing PDRs in their wingsuit spec rigs. They worked great, I don't believe pain was ever involved but these guys actually fly and pitch from full flight. Their new trend is smaller sized BASE canopy.
  19. Later that night while camping out on the dz I had a CRW nightmare. In the dream I was cocooned in five canopies and everyone cutaway to save there own asses. My arms were locked down to my sides and all I could do was squirm and yell all the way in. I startled awake to find myself all twisted up in my sleeping bag. And that was scarryer than me flying straight at you in real life?
  20. Dude....... My heart goes out to you guys. I only had a few ass surf events and one green grass knee drag on my loaners. Doing any unstitching to see how a suit is made is beyond heinous. All of that can be examined via looking down an inlet, or if it is constructed of light colored material, just looking at with a light shinning through. A BMI friend of mine has quiet a few suits, mostly classics and GTIs, for doing first flights. Stranded assets really for what they cost even used. Its sad really! Sometimes when you help out the douche bags you are left with nothing.
  21. One time at Rantoul after a night of hard party I thought I saw my vents move around on my S-3 too!
  22. was an hounor flying with you guys and gal at rantoul Hey everybody Reggie got online, NIce! Did you have to get some teenagers to help with the computer? I need teenagers help all the time.
  23. You are a perfectly normal plane lover. I know some people with the same addiction plus the sound of motorcycles and sports cars gets them going too. Here is one for you Ben and Pat have a Fokker tri-plane they play with now and then. Purty!
