Jerry used to work for SSk and was jumping @ start skydiving, I don't have a valid direct line, but if I was looking to find him I would start by calling those two places and asking about him... you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Sounds good cuz I think Mr. Asshole was takin by JP or Chuck Acres...... can't remember you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

No only the asshole skygods hang around talking shit about noobies.... you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Can you make up your mind as to what profile your going to use, so we'll know what noobie to call asshole...... you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Are you in charge of the marketing? If so, you might as well learn to make your posted URL's www.xtremeskydivers.com into a hyperlink, I mean after all why post your website addy in a "posted advertisement" for your event and do it half ass? www.xtremeskydivers.com And let us not forget a (possible) powerful back link too. Just wanted to keep you posted, dude. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Maybe Bob Dougherty finally pissed off slept with the wrong person. There fixed it for ya. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

When Bob D. got his insurance check for crashing the caravan, they threw a big ass "new airplane" party.... and I just knew sure as shit, when I saw this guy's 14 year old Daughter win the wet t-shirt contest that night, there was going to be a heap of trouble.... Last I heard she had run off with a packer from Jerry's flying circus... you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

It's this type of comment that lends many people who are wise in their years to conclude you haven't a clue in your desire to capture skydives on video nor a clue as to how to go about it in a reduced hazard. Normally I would just let it slide and not say anything.... because your past posting history leads me and others to believe, no matter what good advice your getting here, your going to disregard it and tell us how wrong it is, because you know a better way. However are you not the same person who started a thread about a cutaway with a Go pro and posted a video..http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_flat;post=3842554;page=1;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;mh=25; Now you come back in here and post this, sorry dude, but you really need to get your head out of your ass before you wake up dead! Had you taken the time to review your own photo/frame grab image from the Go Pro event, you would clearly see why your current design sucks and should not be used as is.... It is clear to many who visit here your a "new breed" of entitlement jumper who can't listen to shit or learn from anyone and your hell bent on relearning the lessons of the past first hand. Clearly you've been told a number of times by many.... 1.http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=3962884;search_string=ridestrong;#3962884 2.http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=3896540;search_string=ridestrong;#3896540 And yet you fail to find the correct answers own your own in all your "research" about how to go about doing something dangerous, safely, and on top of all that stupid shit, you want to insult the very people who have made and jumped all that homemade shit and lived to tell the stories, by telling us we're wrong & all about your mad skillz and how smart you are for doing barrel rolls in your track to check airspace or how smart you are for using a Go Pro and then taking the time to unsnap your non cutaway rigged helmet during a mal. If you truly had a clue, you wouldn't have 1) taken the time to build that, 2) posted it and then asked the community for feed back 3) then said "not all the worthless BS that came before it." Like I said you would better off learning to STFU, open your ears, eyes and taking the time to slow down and learn something that might save your ass one day. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Then buy a sidewinder and fill the box to fit. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

With so many of today's well made helmet choices with nice flat spots on the top, with the idea that you would place a camera, such as this one...... It leaves one to wonder why not just use the right tool for the task at hand, rather then try to reinvent the wheel, again. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

ummmm yea, hate to tell you this...... but 95% or more of forum users not only think your nothing but a troll, but they also think your a total joke. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

No jerk chicken.... you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

No he wasn't the post was addressed to Throttlebender http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=4023477#4023477 who also jumps at the same dz as Phree, in the United States of America in the state of Ohio, but you seemed to miss that because in such a hurry to jump Phree's shit http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=4023710#4023710 and discount his personal experience's and your to busy carrying on your agenda of cramming your point of view up everyone ass. And FYI, Mr. Throttlebender then went on to reply back to Phree: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=4023999#4023999 Your the ONLY ONE who has been trying to tell not only me but anyone else from OUR country that our rules are wrong and to strict. Our rules are a minimum standard and are to lax if anything. and That is right, they are unsafe rules for use in this country! And anytime in the last year or so someone from this country (or other country with like minded rules) has asked about "way wait till 200" you chime in and run your mouth all about how great you are and how much better your rules are..... It don't matter over here and we don't care if you don't like USPA rules! No respect for you because you show none for others, repeatedly. Yea right, it's very clear to many people in these forums your only interested in a continual drum beating of your personal view point about how much better the NZ rules are VS the USPA and like minded countries. You talk a lot of shit about respect and all that yet you can't seem to respect any other point of view then your own, such as jumping all over Phree's shit http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=4023710#4023710 for a post that had NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU OR YOUR NZ RULES then you want to hide behind this kind of bullshit!: The more you rant the more you sound like a loud mouth skygod prick and if this is the type of personality being produced in the diploma programs in your country, I would never hire anyone from there if they are anything like you come off as! And you wonder why your banned from posting this bullshit in the photo video forum, maybe you should get a clue. Your little snipe at "another war" you edited out is why you got a warning, nice game playing and song and dance though.... you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Didn't you get the memo, they don't anything wrong over there, EVER. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

And yet again you seem to fail to understand this very point! And you go on to bash Phree and discount his personal exp here in OUR country when speaking about what works HERE IN OUR country and what he has personally seen, we don't agree with YOUR countries rules in regards to camera flying and we tend to feel our rules are quite good as minimum standard and many young jumpers need more education on the subject. Of course I'm sure you'll reply with yet again another rant all about how no one seem to understand how there different rules in different places, yada yada, yada, yada..... You sound like a broken record, everyone has gets your fucking ranting point in not only this thread but the other ones too, give it a rest already, your clearly very closed minded and have not only a hard on for DSE but any American rules, if you don't like so much stay the fuck out of this country and don't come back for anymore ratings, work,comps or visits for that matter! you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Hey I tried to tell you run off with me instead BUT NO you would listen to reason..... As for the house, most everyone lost a lot in the crash, so now your just like everyone else.... screwed. Get you a nice class A RV so if you don't like the hood your in, drive to another! Best of luck.

Here we agree. Agreed again. That is all good, however this is where we don't agree 100%. I totally respect your rights as a dad to refrain from allowing your child to not partake in this high risk sport and you have every right to do so.... What I don't agree on here is USPA or MFG telling me I can't take my 14,15,16 year old should I choose to allow them to do so, I tend to side with the FAA's point of view in regards to solo sailplane flights by 14 year old's, that dose not mean I think ALL 14,15,16 year old's should make a skydive. After all a lot of high profile with in USPA and MFG's has taken part in the very same shit they wish to bust out ass on for doing.... pretty hypocritical to say the least. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

yes both the video angles suck, no doubt, while I don't speak the native word down there, it would seem to me, based on what little we could see of the kids face, that he was not enjoying the ride and looked a tad freaked out, but it's kind of hard to say for sure because the video angles suck... you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

With all of your one year of wisdom in the sport you might want to rethink your statement. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_flat;post=1716271;page=1;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;mh=25; you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Shit he is still using a crank dial unit. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

and Most avg, jumpers here in the states are not going to go to your country or AUS. in order to jump a camera @ a 100 jumps and very few would go just for a skydiving vaca. and those that do are mostly the "'trustafarians', the semi wealthy" you speak of. Regardless anyone who really wants to know the info about another countries skydiving rules and can't find it here can use Google to locate the info.... wow now there's an idea! No we understand there are other rules in other countries..... the real problem is you fail to understand in most conversations is,.... that we don't give a fuck what your rules are over there or how special you feel you are because you started with less then the rules over here... We only care about the rules HERE and how they effect us! And your continued rants on the subject in most other threads are the problem when talking about those who follow USPA rules and guidelines or other countries who also have higher requirements then your own country and advise others as to those rules. While most USA peeps don't agree with your rules, we don't repeatedly chime into threads about your countries rules and speak ill of how stupid you are. Your the one who is making a big big stink for a teeny tiny % of the worlds skydiving populations who will travel out of home country for only skydiving events or enjoyment and even fewer of that % are going to be sub 100 jumps jumpers seeking to avoid the camera jumping rules here. If there is such a demand for this topic then we would see large numbers of people across the globe posting here and asking such questions, yet we don't, so it seems you got some big raging fucking hard on for DSE and continued bashing the USPA rules and acting like your some hot shit fucking skygod who has all the answers, well good for you for filling the huge void in the information on global camera skydiving rules. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

http://www.skydiveratings.com/index.php Here is your guy, he dose courses over there every year. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

No & No, not pissing me off, and for the most part I quit reading the photography threads because of the same posters talking the same shit on each thread. I've said my point of view and now like the rest of the threads related to this topic I'm done wasting time here and there. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

Attempted insult, NO! More like saying you don't know when to STFU and for the last year or so you've been repeating the same shit over and over and over and over and over..... anytime anyone asks about learning camera or starting to use a camera, 90% of the time it's someone in North America operating under USPA guild lines and you always turn it into this shit: And that is why you were banned, your continued kicking of the dead cat..... and if you don't like the rules here then start your own website where your free to post as you see fit. The bottom line here our USPA rules are OUR's and as members jumping in the states they need to heed those rules and not listen your I did it at a 100 jumps so it's ok because that's the rules over here bullshit! I'm sure if you take the time to submit the other countries rules to the moderator of the correct forum he would be happy to add them to the list, by doing so your time would be better served then starting a pissing match.... again. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo

After wasting my time to read through this drivel of your on going rant (all hail rhys) it's clear your the worlds leading expert in all things camera and your progression is far Supérieur in the global market place. It would be a good idea if you could start your own website free of the rules and repressive moderation of this kommunist gestapo kamp that is hell bent on hiding the real truth from the world community and spreading their kommunist agenda across the globe..... Please set everyone free and start your own website and spend a lot of your time there. you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo
