    If you made it back, it wasn't a bad spot. I saw that comment coming LOL. Maybe i was just instructed to a higher standard...... in either case never mind. EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    Agreed on #2 I took two bad spots sunday just trying to avoid the bitching that comes if you don't get out when the green light comes on. We made it back ok though. EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    Not to mention it's not always the student who is at fault for dragging it out. It took me over a year to get my license because the DZ i was going to had problems. EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    Oh i didn't have to cut away. I just wanted to see what it would take as a learning experience. I'll try your suggestion on my next jump. Thanks for the tip! EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    I had alot of fun on my last jump today! I watched a video on youtube showing a pilot who did a hard toggle turn, ended up in line twists resulting in a cutaway. Me being the type that wants to master his canopy i gave it a shot at 4000ft. All i can say is F*#* ! I'm glad i know how easy it is to do even on my huge kite! I ended up with about four twists and have to say it was pretty freakin awesome! EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    I learned S/L from a 182. I think there is something to be said for S/L when it comes to doing H&P s. EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    High sex drive is the only thing that sucks about being single ... O second that one! Not really.... When your not single and you need it every day you just get pissed because they never give it up and they get pissed when you get it from their friends LOL. EARTH!

    LOL seems as though DZ.com is real un-popular to the new guys these days This is the second time i'v seen "I'll never post here again" in two days. I'v met many that refuse to even go on the site because of "What i'v heard" . Just an observation EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    I have a piece of webbing with magnets sewn into it. after the slider comes down i just put the webbing around the slider and stick the magnets together. Nice and quick. EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    Same problem here dude. I'm 5'10" 215 without gear. I have had the same problem usually after i havn't jumped for a while. For me it's just a matter of taking a breath relaxing and finding the sweet spot in my arch. I have borrowed a big baggy suit before though. It made it alot easier but i hate the idea of using a crutch if it's something i can help by working on my Free fall skills. EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV.

    I think that is the hardest question i have been asked about skydiving yet. Something just draws me to the DZ. I have always been a person who gives up on things very easy but for some reason i have never tried harder for anything in my life. Something about letting go of the plane and flying free just brings me some kind of peace. EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    This would be me if i tried that at my skill level. Enjoy! http://www.skydivingmovies.com/ver2/pafiledb.php?action=guestpass&id=01h5y EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    I did have sinus issues one time and had to shoot a snot rocket! It looked like a long string with globs on the ends spinning like some kind of space station. It broke after a few seconds though. EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    Cool. Thanks for the tip! I would mind keeping them if they would pack flat like the normal ones do. EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    My my front risers have swoop loops with cables in them. This makes it hard to pack my rig good and clean. Can i cut them off with a seam ripper? I don't need them at my skill level anyway. Or if not does anyone have any tips on how to pack them cleanly. They are type 8 so i doubt anyone would want to trade . EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV.

    I'm kinda wondering if it's the way the reserve is packed causing it. I have noticed the back pad is puffed out quit a bit over the reserve. EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    Sorry guys i mean tight as in the harness is a little snug even with just the reserve in it. Now it's not too tight to be comfortable just a little tighter than i would like it. EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    Does a new container loosen up a little after a few jumps or should i think about getting some work done on it? EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120

    I wonder if it would be better to use reserve links with large risers? When i was connecting my main to the risers(large) it was a PITA trying to use the regular Slinks. EARTH! Short bus of the universe, since the year T+10.3 billion! REV. DUDEMIESTER D.S.#120
