    Dude, this is pathetic. If you want to score a deal and eliminate the 10% profit a dealer might make from the sale of a Stiletto, you really should do your own foot work and get on the phone to dealers. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

    So what if the exit goes bad? It's only one small part of the skydive. Go on with your plan anyway. And who cares if you "slip"? You ARE going to be wearing a parachut right? ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

    As someone who managed a jumpsuit company for a few years, I can tell you that just doesn't work. Not if you want the skydives to be sucessful. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

    Perhapse you don't understand a) the problem, and b) the limitations of vetical wind tunnels. What you suggest is not practical, safe, nor will it simulate the situation properly. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

    No. Rigs are fine as is. Insist on a proper fit, and accept the consequences of your actions. If you use the rig outside of it's design limits, you accept the additional risk. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

    Well it's true. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

    Yep, I spent a couple weeks there in 2000, and TT was by fat the busiest, with GL doing more fun jump business than TT, and the third operation was the seperate AFF company TT ran. GL was being run by Greg and Wendy Smith at the time..... TT is one of the most profesional operations I've ever seen. They'd do well no matter what they were selling, but the manage to provide options for everyone to spend, have tons of extras avaliabe, and have advertizing worked out to a "T". Tour busses regularly pulled in in the am and 40 people would get out and make jumps. The had a shuttle to all the hostles and backpackers dives in town. Man what a gig. Buddy of min was a TM there and he'd do 15 a day 6 days a week..... ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

    Bull. The breaking strength of bungee ain't gonna save your ass and long before it breaks the anchored ends are gonna pull free, as the most common method of attavhing it is to knot it. I've been suggesting to people for as long as I was in gear sales that if you have to rely on a bungee to hold your new custom rig in place, the fucking thing doesn't fit you right! If you are supe worried about falling out of an ill fitting rig DON'T jump it. Otherwise there are simple solutions. A bridge of webbing between legstraps (hmmmm seen that somewhere b4) will add security. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

    Actually over all the sport is starting to suck at tracking. Newer FF jumpers get lucky because they are tuning huge freefall speeds into horizontal travel, Many newer flat flyers are going straight into 4 way where you an get away with being a lazy tracker. Tracking dives are great, but they don't teach breakoff skills well. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

    Summed up perfectly. Unfortunate but true, and now it's happening in BASE. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

    I urge the local crews to put effort into protecting the great objects in the area...... I know there is alot of respect in Nor Cal, and just a handful of jerks ready to ruin it there.... ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
