  1. And the best part of that is since the weather only lets you get a lift up once a month, you forgot how grand the view was last time so everything looks great again! ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  2. There is a big difference between recommended max and TSO max. Unfortunately some less knowlagables have infuenced newer jumpers into believing they will be ok going by the TSO max. Now I know you're capable of handling that reserve Tonto, BUT, it should be pointed out just because the label says "good to 254lbs" doesn't mean that's what people should be doing. I am well over the max recommended "Expert" loading for my PDR126 reserves, and I do not recommend anyone load this highly. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  3. I'm quite offened by your question. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  4. Now that was better.......#3 was just boring to me, I mean dude is gonna just ride a bike around the store, but waits for the old lady to walk away so he doesn't get busted? Where's the fun in that? Now #2, "stealing Dr. Milky Way's soul" with the interview was nice...... Hey, I'm allowed to wake up on the wrong side of the bed once and a while........besides, it really was a nice title shot and edit in #3. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  5. Are you talking about doing them in the same direction or different directions. The former is a 450, and the latter while showey is not that efficient. I don't think you'll get any more "dive" you may pick up more speed. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  6. No, THAT'S funny! What a gem! ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  7. RSL's come free with almost every rig? Hey you asked!! Mick. Nice one.
  8. 23,500 MSL w/o2 over 3 minute freefall. 18,500 MSL no o2 ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  9. You sure it wasn't just gas? Try some Beano. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  10. I'm counting on Social Security. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  11. I never said a normal RSL can't cause a total (though I think you'd be hard pressed to find a way to with the single lanyard system), I simply answered the question "name one reason an ordanary RSL has an advantage over a skyhook?" ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  12. Set incorrectly by whom ? the rigger ? the mfg ? Safe Rigging !!! Installed = a manufacturing function. Assembled = a rigging function. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  13. And my point was it is a more complex system to manufacture causing the chance of a mistake to be higher. Bill's idea is genius, and it is no wonder that RWS has been VERY careful as to who is permitted to install one. As good as the SkyHook may be, it a) is a more complex system, and b) is not some sort of "miracle" device. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  14. What a waste of 5 minutes. The most creative thing in that video was the title shot. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  15. They don't have a sugestion either way, this is a rumor that has been creeping up. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  16. It doesn't have a hook on the bridle that if installed incorrectly can cause a total. It would have to be wrongly installed at manufacture, i.e stiched wrong, not just misrouted. That could apply to any RSL. Really? How? ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  17. Well that might weed out all the "full-of-crap-don't-know-what-they-are-talking-about-posters", but of course where's the fun in that? ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  18. No, Guano flys like shit. Or so they say. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  19. If it were my rig and had upper articulation (chest rings) I'd have a nice type 8 chest strap put on with a fold back and be done with it. It's a pretty simple job, materials should be just about $20 and it's takes less than an hour. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  20. Chiz is the shit, you couldn't ask for a nicer more laid back guy, who's pretty damn good at what he does. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  21. I've done 47 rides on the front (including the 3 to start the sport, and one when I became a TI) mostly for others to get their ratings. Still scares me. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  22. Spent a hell of a New Years there in 99.....big fun. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  23. It's one hell of a place. One of my top 3 cities in the world. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  24. Sorry, I did it 5 years ago, but we don't have the video, because after I finished off my opponent in just a few seconds I might add, I proceded to fuck up the camera man since it was soo much fun. I am soo k-rad l33t! ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
  25. It doesn't have a hook on the bridle that if installed incorrectly can cause a total. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
