  1. The fragile tour was incredible. In the show in Rhode Island I went to, he actually was crowd surfing and singing. He was SO INTO the show it was unreal, and it made for one of the 2 best live shows I've ever seen. Blues, Ian edit: New CD out next early next year BTW Performance Designs Factory Team
  2. Known that for a while. Just been listening to a lot of NIN lately and felt the need to vocalize my appreciation for it
  3. These are from Freekfly.com (so thanks Brian). Green and purple jumpsuit. Farthest north on the big way. Enjoy
  4. Well it's already been stated that the neptune fulfills this function so I won't go into that, but those of you who've read my posts know that I am a PRO neptune for HP landings kinda guy. HOWEVER I do see a trend of people thinking it's an infallible option. I read and hear, well my neptune said it was ok so I did X turn. Here's where I start to agree with people like Diablopilot who say use your eyes. Guys, be careful out there. Your eyes can lie, but so can the neptune, there is NO SUBSTITUTE FOR EXPERIENCE so using your neptune, eyes, and experience are the factors that will keep you safer. Try not to depend on any one of the three, but use all three together to make an educated decision. Blues Ian Performance Designs Factory Team
  5. Mark, Sorry dude, but I cannot agree that going straight from 90 degree turns to 270 degree turns is a good thing. Doing 180 degree turns add's a level of complexity for sure, but doing 270's adds more so. It's a huge turn to expect someone to go to from doing 90's and not a good idea IMO. To Angela...become proficient in doing your turns both left and right. Don't make big jumps in any of your turn degrees. If you feel concern, land in another area while you become proficient with turn degrees less than 270. I know you want to get more into competition and sometimes the winds are honking cross wind. That makes set up "interesting" when you're making a downwind run. It's good to be able to do your turn either way. Blues, Ian Performance Designs Factory Team
  6. That I agree with. In gusty conditions I've had my riser pressure go very slack, followed by abruptly being yanked out of my hand. Just another reason jumping in gusty conditions isn't a good idea. Blues, Ian Performance Designs Factory Team
  7. God I'm slow. I just realized who Kaerok is. See ya in Sebastian if the weathers gonna be nice Dee BTW I'm putting in my order for no wind now, I know it's a long shot (it is FL and Sebastian after all) but dammit can we have just one meet with no wind Love ya babe!

  8. Yep, Mark got it right (see Mark, miracles can happen, you just have to believe ). Nothing changes other than ground speed and perception of movement in constant windy conditions. Blues, Ian Performance Designs Factory Team
  9. Tool rules. Performance Designs Factory Team
  10. Yes. While I've never owned one, I know plenty of people who do. They are HIGHLY customized and you can get pretty much any design you want. The quality of the suit is great and, I believe, the service is too. They're expensive, but they're totally custom. It's going to be my next suit for sure. There's a design I've always wanted and I know they'll do it. Blues, Ian Performance Designs Factory Team
  11. I know of people who shift their legstrap underneath their thigh a little after deployment to enhance leg turns. I normally lift my knees to my chest to get them to sit a little more on my thigh after deployment. Blues, Ian Performance Designs Factory Team
  12. Why do people always say that like it's a bad thing? Performance Designs Factory Team
  13. Sure thing - download windows media encoder 9 here I've compressed 20 mins of video to 40 mb so it should do the job
  14. Anyone got those clips in WMV or MOV format? I refuse to put that Real Media crap on my computer..... Performance Designs Factory Team
