It is not SkyRide. It is something that the USPA is considering. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

It's ok, she's pretty anyway... ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

What, are you on the payroll or something? He would have landed uneventfully. If he hadn't had a SkyHook, and he pulled low, he might of been able to land his main, he might have had a two out, and he might have still died, but for you to ignore the simple fact that a SkyHook GREATLY increases the complexity of the reserve system is irresponsible. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Well, how else should some agencies/bureaucrats justify their existence? ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Remington 870 modifications... Which?
diablopilot replied to LongWayToFall's topic in Speakers Corner
For HD, short barrel, keep a stock on it, add a shell carrier, ghost ring sights, and a tactical light. If you want to spend a bit more, a Vang Comp barrel looks like a good option. For a bird gun, buy a second long barrel 870, they are cheap enough at Big 5, or splurge and by a Benelli. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are.

When you hear "We need to do this quickly"......

When you start working here legally, and stop working under the table, then you get a say. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. -
and I count 14 ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Before I answer the question, I'll put it to you again.... what would have happened after the TI pulled low, and scared his AAD if he had not had a SKyHook equipped rig? ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
-
I love how you will ignore facts to suit your case.... so the incident may have started with a TI being low, but what would have happened if he HADN'T had a SKyHook on the rig? ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
-
What about the NC tandem fatality? And they really are not that much faster than a standard reserve deployment, again...it's alot of hype. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
-
That's your opinion. I'd argue differently for most of the skydiving (other than tandems) that I do. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Interesting. The definition might need to be re-evaluated, since the function of a crossbrace is to transfer some of the load from the base of a load baring rib to the top of a non load bearing rib.
-
It adds complexity to the system. I jump video. I don't like any of the rigs it's available on (except the Sigma). I'm irritated by the hype. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Karma is a muthafucka isn't it. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Yep, and we couldn't get it to work worth a shit. Now when the CHP jumper brought out his patrol unit and the laser..... ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

What he said. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Funny enough, I've been one. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

2nd day.... ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
-
Can it be all three at once? ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

I wish I could pour gasoline on this website and burn it to the ground. Best. Post. Ever. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Know a few guys who did static line jumps from 26K and 30K.
-
No. It's a violation of FAR part 91.205 (b)(1) to operate it in that condition. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
-
First thing I tell tandem students in my class is that while what they are doing is both fun and exciting, it is not a ride and they need to take an interest in participating in their safety. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
-
I believe that skydiving is very dangerous, and it is only with constant vigilance, focus to the task at hand, and preparation that I keep the risk manageable. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Lodi doesn't give a fuck. If you were at a DZ where I worked, I'd have you show me EP's, landing patterns, and probably go make a fun jump with ya. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
