So you advocate ignoring the manufacturer's recommendation? Just because you can doesn't mean you should or that's its okay. I'm saying that if the manufacturer is setting a "rule" in this case they are over stepping their bounds. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

You're not desperate for a buzz until you drink bong water. Do it once and you'll never do it again. Come to think of it, Hiniken tastes a lot like bong water. Err....I think Sierra Nevada has that distinction. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

That's not a FAR. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Too late. It's Heineken. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

On what basis do you make that decision? ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

I have been asked to start a condolence thread for these skydivers by this site's management..... I had only met Barbara once, but like most in this sport her passing has touched many that I hold dear..... may her friends and family find peace and love.....

I have been asked to start a condolence thread for these skydivers by this site's management..... Although I can not claim Robby was a close friend of mine, I will say he always had a smile on his face, and a passion for the sport we shared.....

how so? Ignorance is bliss Than why are so many people unhappy? ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

In case anyone was wondering, Les would know.....he's half or their traveling boogie rep team! ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

A. I check it myself. B. I jump a pull-out and 75% of the people I meet don't know what one is, how to check it, and what they are looking for. I am always happy to explain the system to people, but after the jump on the ground. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

The location of my wife. Why would you check for me? I don't care if you look! Print this page right now. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Very sad. Gary always had a minute to stop and talk with me at Perris or Elsinore, always passin one of those golden nuggets of knowledge that are so easily lost..... BSBD. -jp-

They would have...... if they'd been playing rugby. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

I like your idea.

Isn't THIS her target audience? ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Right there is enough reason not to go... ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

It's a Kapowsin leased bird that was working at SkyDive Santa Barbara for a year or two.... I think it's out near Vegas these days... N9641F ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

If their insurance or legal advisors say they can't, I can't see how it's a fail. I totally agree, it would be great if wingloading was regulated like it is in other countries (and tied to licenses) and if wingsuiting was regulated like it is in other countries (and tied to licenses), but if the company that insures USPA says "We will not support this language in a document due to legal exposure...." I can't blame the USPA, I have to then look at the legal system=fail. In one specific cited example, a USPA rep explained that the reason they don't offer an official wingloading chart that says something like "no wingloading higher than 1.0 until after 200 jumps, is that as soon as someone goes in on a lightly loaded canopy that is within the guidelines, they're open to litigation for "suggesting" that the lighter wingloading is safe(er). They're very conservative, and on one hand, I agree. On the other hand, I think it's criminal that they don't step up and try to prevent/reduce hook turn fatalities through requiring coaching programs, ratings, wingloading charts, whatever. Back to the original point, I'm looking forward to seeing your suggested edits to the syllabus. I'd like to know who thinks/says this, as I took an informal survey of several BOD members, and HQ Staff and couldn't find anyone who could come up with either a good reason why not to make a BSR, or a common reason that prevented it. If the ED didn't see a problem with it...... ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

Thanks, I didn't get around to a write up of the meeting.... ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
