  1. 2 Super Otters a Skyvan and a King Air. Skydive Radio
  2. What do you mean "if"? It's Dollar Daze, how can you live in the midwest and not come? What about Matt? Is he going to make it? Skydive Radio
  3. Missed you last year Aimee. Kept waiting for you to come by the campsite looking for video on the dick dive. You gotta make it back this year. By the way, I think I have some photo's from the 2003 dick dive. I'll have to try and find them. -Dave Skydive Radio
  4. Jump numbers are only an indicator of experience, not ability. Maybe a better question for you to be asking is if you are able to fly a good video slot consistantly and more importantly...safely. Skydive Radio
  5. I'm offended you would even ask such a thing. Skydive Radio
  6. Next week on Skydive Radio we will be having a conversation with master rigger Dave DeWolf. If you have questions or comments for Dave you can email skydiveradio@gmail.com or leave a voice comment at 206.600.JUMP. We will try to get all your questions worked into the conversation. Skydive Radio
  7. So how much did you pay them to stand in on that picture? Heard you were coming to town. Make sure to look me up when you get in. Lets have a beer or 12. -Dave Skydive Radio
  8. That may be a bit of an overstatement. The party was not as wild as normal but I wonder if part of that was location. Personally I did not care for the new party spot and thought that might have played some role. Overall though it was still the same couchfreaks I have come to love over the last 15 years. Every year it feels like a reunion to me. I can't wait to see you all! Skydive Radio
  9. Thanks to everyone for all the great photo submissions. Congratulations to Daniel Angulo for making our first Pic of the Week! Keep those great pics coming to skydiveradio@gmail.com! Skydive Radio
  10. Show #2 is now up at skydiveradio.com. Many thanks to Melissa for the great conversation. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Skydive Radio
  11. "You can do it Johnny. Fly like bird baby!" Skydive Radio
  12. Hey Twardo, Elmo does have some great stories but it's just so hard to get him to talk Skydive Radio
  13. I have a 4-channel mixer (can't remember the brand now but there are several choices for under $100) and a Videonics TM-2000 Titlemaker which you can pick up on ebay for under $150. With it you can do titles and fades and it also has S-Video inputs and outputs which is nice. Skydive Radio
  14. I have had the same experience with Conceptus. Great customer service...great product. -Dave Skydive Radio
  15. I would be very interested to hear some of that. -Dave Skydive Radio
  16. Skydive Radio is running a contest for our first "Pic of the Week". The photographer who sends us the first photo we use on our web site will win a free copy of last years Dollar Daze 2004 DVD. Future pics will be posted each week and credit will always be given to the photographer. Email your submissions to skydiveradio@gmail.com. Also, give the show a listen. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated. Check it out at Skydive Radio You can download the show directly from the website or subcribe to the podcast. -Dave Skydive Radio
  17. Is there a technical reason you can't listen or do you just not have time? Skydive Radio
  18. That depends...does she have big boobs? Skydive Radio
  19. Who's going to Dollar Daze this year? Skydive Radio
  20. Your camera guy was Marc Hobbs. He's from Des Moines Iowa. Skydive Radio
  21. Dollar Daze is the years best boogie period. 2 twin otters, a skyvan, and a king air will keep you in the air all day long, but it's the people and the nightlife that make this such a special event. If you go once you will never want to miss it again, and after a few years it really becomes something of a family reunion every year. I can't recomend it highly enough. Last years price was $40 registration and $18 jumps. There are 3 free meals, tons of great prizes to win and of course the beer truck never shuts off for 5 days. If you've never been you have to come check it out. Skydive Radio
  22. Thanks for all the positive feedback. We really enjoyed putting on the event and even though we lost money doing it we're considering it a success. Those of you who were at our boogie last year understand why we called this year’s event the "Redemption Boogie". The 4-6 hour backlog to get on a load upset many of last year’s fun jumpers. Our primary goal this year was to give back to you guys and make sure you all had a good time. From the feedback we have received via email and this forum I think we were successful. Thanks again for coming and please pass the word to your friends and get them to come with next year. Hope to see you all at Couchfreaks. Dave Schwartz Lincoln Sport Parachute Club Skydive Radio
  23. You're not allowed out on your own? Skydive Radio
  24. $70 for handcam? I've seen some really cool handcam angles, but on it's own I could never justify charging a customer that much. At our dz $85 gets you outside video on DVD with quality editing including music and personalized titles, and still pictures to boot. This whole handcam thing gives me the same feeling as Skyride does. "How can we make more money by giving our customers less service?" Skydive Radio
  25. Get as far out on the strut as you can. Leave your left foot on the corner of the step and bend your left knee so you are low. Keep your arms fully extended and your head looking to the left. With a .5 you should be able to get both instructor and passenger in frame. Skydive Radio
