  1. Whoohooo! Good luck with your ride! And just pace yourself to finish in sub 7 then! Remster
  2. A high level visiting coach was with a visiting VFS team in Eloy a few months ago and he had a gopro mounted on the net. It was fine until the end of the session: since it provided a bit of leverage for even small incidental contact, it spread the net wires a bit, and a flyer's foot went through the net when he stepped close to it. Nothing bad happened, but, he could have easily been injured. Remster
  3. What Erk said. I have no dog in this fight,but, for the record, the iFly patents did not hold up when they were challenged in Europe by ISG. Remster
  4. Sky venture/ifly 's lawyers are gonna be busy.... :-/ Remster
  5. Chemicals would need to be in an extremely impervious casing. Any exposure to any element would cause decay. And that includes around whatever space around the cutter or the electronics entry port (needed to initiate) into the head. Also, you cant test them without "firing" them. Remster

    News? Hahaha.... Which 15 year-old record was tied last week? And as John said, everyone is retired until they jump again.... Remster
  7. Huh? I though I read that he was a ISIS plant? Remster
  8. ....or, it could all be marketing BS. Remster

    I assume he is... So is Don Kellner... If they'd stopped, I'm sure it'd be newsworthy. Hundreds of jumpers stop every year. Unless they themselves made a big deal of it, why do you think Bill and Don's retirement would be so newsworthy? Remster
  10. Well, you just had a chance to bat for the other team, and you said no... Guess you're stuck with us :p Remster
  11. Cary a change of clothes (in fact, try and not check in any bags if you can). Hydrate. Bring a sandwich, or eat at the airport (for NA travel anyway). Get to the airport early enough, but don't go crazy about it. Bring something to read. Remster
  12. They're good at it, because they're the ones liable for a card's fraudulent usage. Remster
  13. Hey. You. We expect more pics of the flappy eared hunter. Remster
  14. "Moved". The famed Sunlife line-up of Brinks trucks was all for show. Remster
  15. I am not a lawyer, but, I'm pretty sure one would suggest you do not post gripes about possible issues you have with your ex-spouse on a publicly available online forum. Remster
  16. A swing and a miss, Bill. They hate America. That's obviously it. Remster
  17. I'm more the forking type. Remster
  18. The bigots seem to have gone very quiet. Maybe they are busy in divorce court since their own marriages have been ruined by the rulings - Well for goodness sake, why on earth would one stay married to somebody of the opposite sex when they can now marry someone with whom they have so much more in common? Think about it: double the wardrobe!!!!!! Remster
  19. #unclearonconcept. Yes, I hashtagged. Deal with it. Remster
  20. Normally, you have to go to the Wingsuit forum for this kind of action! Well done gang!!!!!! Remster
  21. Typically, not many (if any) team trains for 10way. They're often the 4way teams or 8way teams combining with who is sticking around to form the teams. The points are drawn randomly the day before from a small pool (12 possible formation). That's like that in 4, 8 and 16 way too (and in 4w VFS and 2w too). One of them is always the round. Have a look at what it looks like: http://www.omniskore.com/comp/2013/2013uspa_nsc/main_10-Way.shtml (click on any of the scores to see the jump; it doesn't seem to work well in Chrome tho...)

  22. It's Ottawa. You can go to that one restaurant ... or the other one. Exactly. See the difficulty? Remster
  23. Yep! 8 (BOHICA), 16 and 10 (teams are figured out, but, as usual, can't pick a name... the only thing more difficult is figuring out where to go for dinner) Remster
