Maybe so, but its still a funny phrase. So I have a question for the experienced crowd now: Would a 1.3 WL (jump numbers dont matter but for you tight asses who wont let that go we will say 1000 jumps) be considered more performance from obtaining it with a smaller wing, or more weight on a larger wing? ie. 1.3WL on a 210 or 1.3WL on a 135 or smaller? And for those anal retentive types who will just preach every wing is different, lets say a Sabre II. it would be a much more high performance flying canopy on a sabre 2 150 with a 1.3 WL rather then that on a much larger sabre 2 with a 1.3 WL!

I just think its the wrong approach thats all Thanks ozzy13....thats all im trying to say here...how would you guys feel if you were at work and you asked someone a simple question...and they bombarded you with tough guy talk and would never stop bothering you about it....i mena if he was on a 170 he still coulda spun the canopy up...so you guys dont have the right to say all this shit to him just cause he didn upsize like you all wanted him too...im sure alot of you have done some stupid shit and no one has seen it im my opinion he has more balls then half of you to actually post the video online knowing what all of you Group PA removed by slotperfect said to him on here...he knew you people were going to see it....he knows what he did wrong..he obviously wants others to learn from his mistakes...but instead of taking it in and maybe learning something from it you have to gang up on him some more and write even dumber shit..... like i said this is like high school...the kid did something dumb...im sure he is in some shit at his home dropzone...back off and go do something usefull with your life...he knows what he did wrong

True dat. Which is why I've left the actual advice-giving to people with a lot more experience than I have (and looking through this thread there are many, many people with thousands of jumps who have put in their thoughts). I've somehow been lumped in with the evil crowd that wants marko to die (quite to the contrary, I'd prefer it if no one died skydiving), but I haven't made a single comment on marko's choice of gear - I'll leave that to people with a lot more experience and skill than I have. i said its funny how all the GUYS.....not the girls ;) ....i know you didnt say anything bad about marko...sorry for the misunderstanding

and its funny how all the guys talking bad to marko have 12-375 jumps...what do you all know.....not much Edit: had to lift the jump number to 375 so we can fit tough guy in here(magicguy)

well its off by far buddy

Well let me start by saying that all of you group PA removed by slotperfect who contributed to this thread with nothing good to say should be ashamed at yourselves. The kid asked a question that could have been ignored by all of you since you were all just going to bash him anyway. Have your mother and fathers not taught you any good qualities? This thread looks like it came from a bunch of high schoolers....pathetic.. Marko all im going to say is that you saved your life...the skyhook helped...but you now have done something that will stick out in your mind for the rest of your life...and you will hopefully tell other people how to avoid it more then others! but personally to the others PA removed by slotperfect
