  1. what about time limited links on the reserve ? apply a chemical on the links which would take 180 days to dissolve
  2. I've got the solution... Make the AAD manufacturers put a rigger mode where we can set the due date, and if it hasn't been repacked by then, make the AAD fire the reserve.

  3. The problem is that RFID's are too easy to hack. Not to mention that not all riggers even own a computer, much less have internet, or would want to invest in the RFID reading hardware, but then, where will you centrally locate all of the records, and make it offline available to DZ's that can (and have) operated without internet and in some cases, after storms, without power?

  4. I witnessed a dz.commer get her entire toe of the closed toe shoes stuck in the mesh... Can't say any names though. "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  5. No, no, NO!!! It's a bell-curve, dammit! Well, whats your standard deviation?? "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message

  8. Yeah, I had that for my first dozen or so jumps... it went away. Stick with it, but don't get complacent.
  9. I am just s newbie as well, but wouldn't it be smarter to avoid jumping in heavy winds? Know your limits... I've only pulled off of one or two loads for screwy winds, Lots of free entertainment, try to bet how many people on a load are going to land other than on their feet.

  12. what is a Desert Princess or Queen? Well, You take a girl back in the states and rate her between 1 and 10. When she goes forward such as Iraq or Afghanistan she suddenly gets an extra 10 points or so. The score also goes up the longer you're deployed... a girl that might be a 3-4 in the states becomes an 8 right off the bat, and it seems every month you're there, she goes up a point or two.

  13. I just happened to see this online, and couldn't resist. They even show it in super slo-mo, and you can see those things fly right off his feet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgKoXzbw13E&feature=feedrec_grec_index Those look more like crocs than VFF's "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  14. F..k it, I'll bite... If the lines came out of the stow pocket, and the locking stows were released... how the f*** do you expect the damn bridle to keep the bag shut? The stows have all played out, and there is literally NOTHING holding the bag closed. Also, look at the folds on the sides of the canopy, the width reducing folds notice the canopy is still the same width as the freebag? its because the folds weren't even disturbed. A strong fan would do this, much more so falling at 120mph. ETA: and if ya think about it, freefall would've probably blown air into the 'ears' of the freebag, blowing it further off the packjob.

  15. Do you have any idea how much that'll cost?? Hope they don't raise the rates too much! "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  16. My Sabre2's gave me end cell closure on almost EVERY jump... I say almost because one time it slammed me, I think the cells were fully inflated. My Safire2 does it too... ya just learn to deal with it, a little bit of rear risers (which also works well if you need to make that quick turn just after opening), you can pull the brakes down a bit, or you can usually just leave it alone and they will inflate themselves. One time I did have 3 cells closed on ONE side of my Sabre2-190... THAT got interesting real fast! Almost chopped it!

  17. You know, who asked you? I'm still working on my popcorn. I think we should compare it to target shooting down a long, straight hallway of an elementary school during class time. As long as everyone stays in the classroom where they're supposed to be, it's all good. You'll put yer eye out! Watch for ricochet, it's the unintended bounce that ruins the fun for everybody!

  20. Then WHY did you go on a date with a girl that doesn't light your fire? Simple. You new never know untill you try right? Well she looked very nice on paper. So thought...well maybe I can look past size. Turns out I can't. Looked nice on paper? Maybe you should stop reading resumes.

  24. Hell, for the past 6 years, I've had almost all refunds, and 3 out of those years, I had refunds BIGGER than the money I paid in!
