I never really worried about it like some people seem to but it was my turn to cutaway on jump 38. It was just instinctive. I panicked for about a second then went straight to cutaway handle. peeled, pulled, dropped () by the time I had my hand on the reserve handle the reserve was already out and fully inflated (I know. I should have pulled it anyway. I got tons of shit for not pulling it.)

Greatest thread the universe has ever seen.

As far as troll jobs go though its a great thread. I just thought with all the troll talk on here lately people would appreciate that thread. -
Amazing parachute fix
skittles_of_SDC replied to chuckakers's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
you'd think the FAA would have something to say about using mighty mendit to fix a tear in your canopy. -

appears to be a troll. the poster says he got married last weekend. and the real myspace of the guy who is in the pictures says he got married Oct 2007. so the people are real but it's not really him posting. -

This is seriously the greatest thread in the history of the internet.-Sherdog.net forums If nothing else at least read the original post. -
I guess that could work.

Do something completely and ridiculously stupid that will earn you a nickname and make you a legend. Then they will come to you. Seriously. If you don't wanna go that route though, just talk to them about whatever. Just cause they are old doesn't mean they will hate everything you like. They may, but they may not.

I need Some good Questions to ask!!
skittles_of_SDC replied to Da_SKiES_R_BLu's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Did anybody ever figure out if she was for real? I thought there were a couple posts from people planning to go out there when she was supposedly doing her first jump. -
I need Some good Questions to ask!!
skittles_of_SDC replied to Da_SKiES_R_BLu's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I appreciate that you are trying to help her, but don't you think you should let her come up with the questions? If we give her questions, she probably won't care about the question or the answers and therefore won't bother to remember them. In skydiving you should want to learn. I started jumping 6 months ago and I still ask way too many questions. I'm pretty sure the instructors are annoyed at how many questions I ask. But I'd rather ask too many than not enough and get myself in a bad situation or do something stupid that could kill me (like i asked one of my instructors if it was ok for me to rent a 190 instead of a 210). -
thanks. I had so much shit on under my jumpsuit i couldnt even arch properly.
-
2 way belly from 11,000 with Dave. for my first cessna jump. Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes.
-
full altitude or hop n pop?
-
Quite a bit. But I can do basic math. I'm just not sure I got the formula right. its 2 degrees less for every 1,000ft right?
-
I assume the answer is yes but is it possible to wingsuit from a cessna?
-
It being a birthday jump. It'll be sunny all day. Assuming I did my math correctly it will be about 7 degrees at altitude. And to get it to go I may have to buyout the cessna load. I highly doubt anyone else will be there to jump. You have until 10:45 to help me decide. (thats when my first class gets over and I have a 3 hour window to get to the DZ, jump and get back to school.)
-
I can't speak for everyone. But if people look at it the way I did, it's basically just a license to jump out of specialty aircraft and do beach jumps. *shrugs*

I just made my first jump!!
skittles_of_SDC replied to Da_SKiES_R_BLu's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Maybe it was a 767-283. I'm sure thats what she meant. I've heard all the good dropzones have at least 1. -
Seriously, folks? No Steve McQueen? I'd like to propose The Magnificent Seven and The Great Escape.

Don't think I ever really introduced myself...
