so i just kinda recently started working on my head down, i can make transitions and remain fairly stable on my head but i drift a pretty substantial amount backwards. ive been told to push my chin back but im still drifting any other tips on ways to prevent this? ive been working with the "straddle" position so far Jump more, Bitch less.

skydiving is a total sensory over load the first time for just about every one theres a phenomenal video called adrenaline rush, the science of risk done by an IMAX team thats definitely worth checking out http://www.amazon.com/Adrenaline-Rush-IMAX-Disc-WMVHD/dp/B000EOTWCY not only does it it have awesome skydiving and base jumping footage it explains why we adrenaline junkies love the rush so much Jump more, Bitch less. -
^^^ that is only when i try to pack it trying to compensate for the right turn, if i just pack it "regularly" it has a consistant and predictable right turn thats what ive heard across the board, someone also mentioned that it's cause they sew it from left to right or something like that. but regardless i just wanted to get ppls thoughts and experiences with wingsuiting on sabre 2s thanks for the input guys, and DSE i find my self pretty relaxed during deployment. the turn is also at the very very end of the opening sequence, like someone else mentioned right as the end cells are opening up, untill then its always on heading, Jump more, Bitch less.

does anyone have a video on how rounds are packed? i cant find anything on youtube, ive just been curious Jump more, Bitch less.

Have you attempted to determine why that is yet? ive talked to a few people and ive pretty much just heard that it could be packing or manufacturing the person i bought it from that he's always experienced the same thing ive tried different things while packing but all it does is making the opening really squirly and in consistant Jump more, Bitch less.

im flying a sabre 2 135 W/L: 1.48:1 and im tossing around the idea of getting a phantom 2z ive asked a bunch of wingsuit pilots at my DZ and it seems about half say yes, and half say no. id like some input on this, pros/cons, etc. also: can you reach the risers at all on opening with a phantom. my canopy has a pretty substantial but consistent right turn on opening that i compensate for with the risers Jump more, Bitch less.

any ideas on how he controls that thing? is it just "flying your body" like a wingsuit-ish? or are there flaps more like an airplane i saw a different video on him and he has a dial on his hand for the throttle but i didnt notice much more Jump more, Bitch less.

jf951 replied to jf951's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
ok i realize i just walked into the lions den with this one. (have fun, bash away) let me rephrase the question. ok so i have about 350 jumps and im not a uspa member nor do i have any of my licenses and ive made all my jumps in california. ppl give me crap all the time about not being a USPA member and not having a license. (surprise surprise) so from a local US jumper at your DZ whats the most jumps you've heard of someone making with out getting these things signed off Jump more, Bitch less. -

so im sure you guys have used some of the creative terms wuffos use for skydivers and their gear. the one i herd most recently that gave me a good chuckle was, "i used to know a shooter" took me a second, and him saying it a few times but i realized he was talking about a " 'chuter" what are some other good ones you guys have heard ?

"have you ever made a chick puke with ur dick, i have" oh god, i dont remember this, how intoxicated was i?!?!?!?!?! haha that was a phenomenal quote from a good friend when he found out i plowed a squirter, he s was envious to say the least and of all things to respond with he said "yeah, well have you ever made a chick puke with ur dick, i have!" hahaha he had quick reflexes and made sure to keep his junk clean.

i actually find it is one of the most applicable fields of math, once you know it and understand its concepts there are alot of things you encounter in every day life where you can see how calculus was and could be used for it. its also the foundation for many fields of work, business, economics, physics, biology... one big part of it, very simplified down, up until calc the majority of math can only be used in a "stationary" setting, but once you incorporate calc you can begin to apply movements to those same models and understand how things elapse over time. at the same time once you put things into motion so to speak you can look at the rate at which they are changing at an instantaneous point in that time frame haha i hope that makes since Jump more, Bitch less.

i was on an international united airlines flight and a piece of the plane fell off, (just like ron white says, FELL OFF, it FELL OFF, the piece FELL OFF) in flight, the gravity of something like that dawns on you when the ENTIRE 10,602 feet of SFO runway is lined with fire trucks, police, ambulances, and vehicles that make one way trips to the morgue. thats a billion dollar international corporation and they botched shit worse than BD ever could in his wildest dreams. i've yet to see shit fall of of BD's plane in flight, im not trippin. feel free to say i told ya so when i go in on one of his plane but until then ill partake in his business it would be a phenomenal excuse for getting out of this calc homework too, "well prof, i couldn't do the calc home work cause i got into a plane crash while skydiving" > collect wuffo pussy coupons (redeemable in heaven or hell) Jump more, Bitch less.

why doesn't DZ.com just make a "hate on bill dause" section all to it self, you guys do a piss poor job of hiding it under the "incident" the OP posts anyways. also i think it should exclusively entail ppl bashing on lodi who have only heard about the place, never actually been there, i wanna keep our source legit.

who suffered through calculus. i feel your pain oh how i want to go tell calc to fuck it self, but i have too much respect for the people who actually figured this crap out. leibniz and newton prolly enjoy a holy brew up there watchin all the college students over the past 300 years or so get raked over the coals by this stuff, jerks.
