  1. I can't remember his name but he is the guy that sang that "Eye of the Tiger" song from on of the Rocky soundtracks. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  2. Pardon the intrusion, as i am not a wingsuit pilot. However, this statement I think needs to read that the pilots skills and experience will always be the determining factor. For an example, look at the pro canopy pilots.
  3. I still think "Free Beer" would be a great team name. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  4. I have jumped both. They are different canopies so i can't say which is better. The stilleto has a shorter recovery arc than the cobalt. I found it to be snappier on toggle turns though. The cobalt has more bottom end lift and more toggle stroke. I liked flying them both but i own a cobalt now. I never had line twists on the stilleto but i did once on my old cobalt 135. It still flew straight and was easy to kick out of. I have friends that still fly stilleto's for video work and i have seen them get twisted up and theirs flew straight too. Demo both and decide which one YOU like.
  5. Frenchy, it is a noble thing you are doing here and i applaud you for it. I only have one suggestion: As court Jester I hereby suggest that his new name be Little Dicky Pierce Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  6. One case (24) for sharing with your good friends who helped you get the SCR. And one case (24) to have your friends pour on your sorry ass MAGGOT!! Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  7. I guess i should show people that Remster and i are in a similar situation. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  8. Oops, i forgot to add, "But i am a close second" Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  9. I'll agree with you but every once in a while i find myself cracking up at one of the new ones. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  10. I think you win, hands down for "Person who married way above their league." Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  11. Mr. Jean shorts inventor Mr. Electric bug zapper inventor those crack me up. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  12. While i applaud your thinking that you need to learn your belly skills first before freeflying, i couldn't let this part go without making a comment. A hybrid IS NOT just another skydive. Yes, you were on your belly where you feel comfortable. However i am sure you were flying at a much higher speed than normal belly jumps and you also had someone else hanging from you. Those facts add many links in the chain of events. Please just think about it.
  13. Katie we will work do do another one this year at Skydive San Marcos. Last year we did a wonderful slot specific tracking dive and left one front slot open.
  14. She will turn into Emril?? I don't get it Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  15. wow, how could they get you mixed up with that??? Edit to add results of search of my name. Apparently i am a brithish cyclist pic attached. The third hit was on Douva's personal web site. And a story about L.A.S.T in the Austin paper came up on the second page. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  16. ***From Aggieland: Get there at 6:30am Sunday, Get on the Caravan for a 45 minute ride. Got any slots left Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  17. Dear god man, don't put ideas like that in her head. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  18. Good choice! She doesn't need a zombie kit. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  19. Ok. I got about five or six jumps on my newly modded cobalt 105 this weekend. First of all, it still opens extremely slow and soft. I noticed the difference in flight as soon as i turned in my harness to start heading back to the dz while stowing slider, chest strap, etc. When i released the brakes, holy crap. This canopy dives so much harder and faster and longer than it ever did before. I was amazed at how long it would hold a dive even after a smooth harness 180. I was looking to jump this canopy (or one just like it) for another 400 or so jumps and then think about going X-braced. Not anymore. I am going to fly this thing till it falls apart and buy another one. What you guys always say about staying ahead of the canopy and everyone else in the landing pattern, yeah, no shit. Mel, since you built and installed the lineset, i need to get in touch with you also. I have a question specific to this line set that i need to ask. Dan Preston, Find me another 105 comp or make Ramon sell me his. Eric is like a crack dealer and just keeps letting me jump his. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  20. I'll need ten yards of 5000psi min. Delivered. And don't try to tack on a delivery fee, i'm on to your scams. I am going to start a new business "Boogie Entertainment" Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  21. HUH??? Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  22. Unless you used a tractor tire filled with concrete, it wouldn't hold up with spinning around on it. I think she is working on a "boogie" version. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  23. I would do that but it would definately be one of those "Here, hold my beer and watch this shit" moments. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  24. I sent him my cobalt 105 last week to get re-lined and have an H-mod done. I just got it delivered to my office so i can jump it this weekend. Thanks Joe, and i will let you know how it flies on Tuesday. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
  25. Have i told you that you suck?? I am sitting here at work waiting on the fed-ex guy to deliver my canopy so i can jump maybe today and this weekend. Otherwise i would already be gone. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
