It's a java like technology where everything that is run is handled through an intermediary system. That system hides the complexity of the Windows 32 operating system calls that a programmer would normally have to code against. Java does the same thing but is Operating system independant.

Not sure actually. I think Brandy chose the theme though.

Drop Aubrey (from Aerodyne) a line. He's on here and a great guy who'll bend over backwards to help you. Aerodyne can probably recommend the best way for you to fix this.

Is that Iceman's retarded cousin who can't spell? Performance Designs Factory Team

Whatever. You cannot 'win' a demo you retard. Performance Designs Factory Team

No - if you actually took the time to learn to read you'll see I mentioned this earlier on. You're the one trying desperately to ruin something fun. You go do what you want to do. I'm going for fun, not to prove anything to anyone. It's a freaking 3 jump swoop demo. Get over it. Not everything is a competition. Performance Designs Factory Team

Yep, get consistent with EVERYTHING else before trying to do HP rear riser landings. Chances are you're hurting your landings more than you're helping them. That aside, I prefer to pull out on my rears as it requires more input for less result - ie. It's harder to put in too much rear input. Blues, Ian Performance Designs Factory Team

Hey now...lets not drag me into Shitmils shit talking fest

Yes. Performance Designs Factory Team

Some of us don't forget about something like that. Performance Designs Factory Team

Heh, it's all good. Now I get to make a comeback

Well holy shit was that a tough competition. In fact, I don't think I've ever had such a toughie!! Special congrats go out to Mark Shimell for a 2.1x second run through the speed course (and arguably his best competition to date) AND Paul Roussouw for a 404 foot distance run. Both local CPC records! Also congratulations to Katie Drennan for her first swoop event ever (beer!) and who scored a 158 on a distance run doing 90 degree turns on a KA 107 loaded @ 1.3!! Also congrats to Larry and Travis for their first swoop meets. The level in this region astounds me. It's getting unbelievably hard to win one of these things with everyone bringing their A game! For example I had a 307.5 and a 302 distance run and that put me in 3rd for distance!! With Brian McNenny doing a 309 and a 315 (I think) in 2nd, AND Paul Roussouw absolutely decimating us on his new JVX with a whopping 404 and a 391 for distance! Zone accuracy was TOUGH, with brutally hard ground leaving all but one competitor really beaten up with plenty of road rash to go around (trust me, a lot of us are going to be sore for quite some time ). This was the round that ultimately ended up cost some of us the event and helping others regain lost ground. A close race to the very end. Great job everyone! Top 5 (announced) placing: 1) Brian McNenny 2) Mark Shimell 3) Paul Rousouw 4) Ian Drennan 5) Travis Stewart (guest) Performance Designs Factory Team

Absolute nonsense. Performance Designs Factory Team

Fair enough Beezy, you know more about that stuff than I, but I heard that PD are releasing cascaded HMA with a targeted lifespan of 300+ jumps. I'm hearing it's thicker than the stuff the teams get (but hey the rumor mill isn't exactly a good source of info!) so I'm wondering how they lengthen the lifespan then? Also Joe B has close to 400 in his cascaded HMA set that he made for his 90.

I have a great time coaching
