  1. I beleive you Nathan. I don't know who has been post whoring today....we should really find out though. Hrm, lets see, it wasn't Nathan, it wasn't Clay... Who else could it have been, SunnyChe? -- Hook high, flare on time
  2. I can really relate to this thread. I remember back in college a friend of mine spent a whole summer driving across the country with 3 friends and no money. I was always impressed by that, and wish it was something I could do, but I just can't picture it working for me. I'm too shy of a person to be able to make it. I've thought about becoming a DZ bum, because I love to skydive, and think it would be a great life expierience, but I keep having thoughts go through my mind.. "What will I do with my furniture, my apartment, my bills, my stuff. How will I make money to eat, skydive, live somewhere?" Sorry, just some (inane?) rambling and thinking publicly... -- Hook high, flare on time
  3. Fisrt page of the owners manual for my Tempo says.... This parachute is approved under FAA TSO C-23c and although the FAA required placard states: "CATEGORY B: This parachute is limited to use by persons up to 115kg (254 lb) fully equipped, and up to 150 knots" 2. To lower the risk of death, serious bodily injury, canopy damage and hard openings never exceed the following limitations: MAX DEPLOYMENT SPEED 130 Knots MAX GROSS WEIGHT (Jumper + Clothing + Equipment) -Blank- LBS Then at the top of page 2, Specifications SIZE - MAX SUS WEIGHT 120 132 150 165 170 200 210 223 250 250 -- Hook high, flare on time

  8. I was until I started rolling it and tucking the drawstrings into the container. Also, lately the slider has been hanging up just above half-way a lot also... easily fixed by a quick tug on the rear risers. I'm under a lightly loaded 150 though... -- Hook high, flare on time
  9. Did Alex and Lisa see it land? What did they say. I bet they were pretty freaked about that one. They were shocked by it.. I was freaked out when I started thinking about if it had hit one of the kiddies... -- Hook high, flare on time
