Got family members that skydive?
skygod7777 replied to vonSanta's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
yea, my dad has about 2700 jumps. my sister made about 60 and stopped. my mom has about 3 jumps or so. and then my 2 brothers have made about 15 or so jumps. other than that i think a few aunts and uncles have made a tandem. i dont get to jump with my dad much, but when i do it's always cool. i don't know, it's just fun to go jump with the dad sometimes. later -
Marijuana and Skydiving. Good, bad, indifferent?
skygod7777 replied to BravestDog's topic in The Bonfire
personally i think that is the dumbest thing you could do. i mean, you already are putting your life in enough danger, why add to it by slowing your reaction time down?? now, have i seen this done, yes. do i say anything, no, people can do as they want, it's not for me to stop them. now i will ask them, you sure you want to go make a jump? and i have talked people out of jumping at least for a while after smoking, but hey if they want to do it, just don't involve me, fuck up my dropzone by going in, or screw over my pilot and i'm fine with it later -
i saw orly down in FL the begining of jan. he's been travling around with matt hoffmen (sp?), and like other biker's and like skaters like bob burnquest (sp?). so where ever the next show is for a bike or skate thing, he'll propably be at a dz near there. later

Information on Swooping competitions
skygod7777 replied to dsbbreck's topic in Swooping and Canopy Control

XF2 against Airlocked canopies....
skygod7777 replied to rhino's topic in Swooping and Canopy Control
it's 180, but as much as vern hits the bank, it may be 185 now and to add to that, a xfire goes dirt-water-dirt on the same pond. later -
XF2 against Airlocked canopies....
skygod7777 replied to rhino's topic in Swooping and Canopy Control
i've jumped a few xfire 2 's (89, 105) and a vengence 97. the vengence doesn't dive near as much as the xfire. i guess the turns are about the same, but i don't really care how fast or slow a canopy turns so i'm not reall too sure. as far as a swoop, i could get a longer swoop on the crossfires than the vengence, but everyone's different. some may be able to get a longer swoop under a vengence than a crossfire. i can't speak for the samuri or the jedi, because i have never jumped them. later -
i think it's the same way here in indiana, so that's why the vet knows her as erin the german shepard later
-
here's another pic of her from a while back. later
-
thanks she's actually a wolf. she's like 90 % wolf, and 10% shepard. later
-
what's up so i put erin outside because she wanted to go. but now she won't come back in. she loves the snow, she'll be out there almost all day now, i'm sure of it. oh well. she can just be cold if she wants. later
-
hell yea. i'd love to get some of the video of our swoops. and those ones at night, well i'm not really sure if i do want them or not at least the one of me splashing in. oh well, i'll PM you my addres, and i'll gladly pay you for the tape and shipping or what ever. later
-
hey man, congrats. but you do know getting married is the leading cause of divorce right . later
-
hey congrats on your 500th. that's way further than what a lot of people make it. and good luck on getting you pro and tandem ratings. go for AFF too later
-
call ssk, they'll have em. later
-
well one of the first things it does, is let you canopy get wider, you lines can spread further out. this lets the canopy get flatter. and it also reduces drag by pulling it behind your head. and even though it is still collapsed when it is up top, it still makes noise, so when you pull it behind your head, it doesn't make any more noise. later
-
haha, that would be fun to jump, and not land though. later
-
the last time i talked to simon, he said it more than likely would be out late spring/early summer. but i haven't seen anything about it anywhere. i may just have to shoot simon and e-mail and find out.
-
who knows, and who cares, at least i don't. me and my vx are quite happy, it would just be nice if it was a 98.3 () instead of and 85. i know that they were supposed to be coming out with a reserve, i saw the fucker hanging on a rack at PIA, and i still haven't seen anything about it being released. later
