Hey Clay I think that in Argentina there are DZ that only do freeflying, only do RW the first 10 or sumthing jumps to get the license after that its all freefly. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com

Thats why some people say: "if you kill him, you better bury him and let nobody know." Is there a law that say you can only stab a burglar 5 times if he is using a knife and 10 times if he is using a gun? some laws must be eliminated, I think there is one that says: you can't shoot a burglar if he hasnt shot you first; what should we do? get our head shot before shooting back?. There is one here in panama that says: you can't shoot a criminal if he is running away from you even if he has stolen all your stuff. Dude if you shoot him bury him safe yourself the trouble.

Maybe he/she meant that you can squeeze the PD218 in a container that is fit for a PD176. Am not a rigger, its just a thought. I can be 100% wrong. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com

good luck on your landing, just a thought: can you ask for a long straight approuch? something like in 500fts get to your final leg (against the wind). That might ease the nervous part. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com

Thank you sebazz, thats what I was trying to say but had trouble puting it in words that werent spanish.

dude its just an example... 80% of the students will do what you told them on land before boarding the plane, if you tell him that a closed fist will mean to pull then thats what he will do when he sees the closed fist. If another instructor teaches another student that he should pull when he sees his index finger pointing at him, then thats what the student will do after seen the finger pointing. Its all about the dirt dive. Just in case: I am not saying that the thumbs up should be teached as a pull signal. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com

Wow! it wasnt a dream... I really did posted this. Everything is true on the post but man I thought I was dreaming that I made a post about this. mm... I think am going to repack my main. Oh yeah can somebody please show me how the liner is inside? (I took it off while been drunk so I have absolutely no idea of how it was inside). HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com

packing - average. exits - good. belly flying - pretty good. free-flying - sucky. relative work - very good. spotting - did it onece on a cessna and it went ok, but it was on low altitude about 5k feets. landings - average. landing near the spot - way waaayyy wwaaaayyyyy sucky (almost everytime I do a 100, 200m walk) CRW - never tried.

I took the liner off my boomerang. I can't remember how it was inside. lucky for me that I didn't baked it because been trying and trying to put it back inside and I can't get it to be like it was in the beginning. I bought the helmet from square one and I thank you Lisa for helping me choose the helmet! Now here is something I think nobody has ever asked before... but can somebody post a pic of the inside of the L or smaller boomerang? I really can't remember have no idea how to put the liner back inside. mental note: don't drink so much beer before taking things apart. Its my first helmet so I it was BEEEERRRR!!!! Woa head spinning again! another mental note: Repack parachute when sober. bye bye head spinning me sleeping. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com

Hey RC, I envy you too. Congrats on your stuff, BEEERRR! just a thought: please don't use so many faces, that shiny yellow faces made a bad combination with all the beers I had been drinking. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com

I agree with you mark, the thumbs up comment was some sort of example to say that if you teach that on the dirt dive then that is the signal the student will be waiting for the pull. I never meant that the 2 thumbs up should be used. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com

I have basic HTML (www.angelfire.com/fl/dokester), I know my stuff about gear, I like to learn, I was born in the US and have 21 years old. Want to pay me the plane ticket from Panama? Ok here are the bad things, I hate waking up early (7 or 8 am), I have never sold anything in my life (except for my motocycle and one time I sold about 300$+ on scuba diving gear to a mother and her childrens (only fins, mask and accesories, no regulators or anything expensive)), only have 54 jumps and like my wednesday party. Good things: I am good with responsabilities, thats why am in the board of directive of the Panama parachuting association and board of directive of the Panama oceanic association, I am loyal to the company (thats why I have never been fired from the SCUBA diving learning center since 5 years ago) and have knowledge about managing (my family has been owner of our own company since before I was born, yep I learned some stuff). Oh yeah I forgot: I have horrible spelling and grammar.

What's the most vivid memory about your first jump?
drenaline replied to prepheckt's topic in The Bonfire
SL jump been outside the trust feeling the prop wash and looking at the floor moving. Took me some time to concentrate and hear the jm asking me if I was ready, he even told me "OK enjoy the strut some more" and smiled. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com -
from personal experience, it has a very very tight fit with the ditter inside, I cant use a L Z1 if it has a ditter inside but without the ditter it fits perfect. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com

not quite, I read on a chart that it has the same pack volume. Can't remember which one but I think it was the PD pack volume seminar. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com

Best thing to do is to email the manufacturer, if it doesn't fit they might give you an advice on what to do or might simply tell you not to try it. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com

Not a instructor or a couch but been a 53 jumps skydiver I can only say 2 words: Dirt Dive, what you practice on the dirt dive is what you will know on the sky. If you tell them on the dirt dive that 2 thumbs up means pull then thats what they will do, its all about the dirt dive. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com

Am less shy, I take care of my life much better, I stopped drinking saturday nights, I dunno what is a free sunday (we jump on sunday), I get pissed at the rain if its sunday, am more crazy, I prefer jumping than to use a sunday and go out with some girls and see if I get a gf or at least lucky (been single since the day I started jumping) and I always owe money to the credit card. yeah yeah yeah, I dare you to say that after a while, now that you are dz.commer you will geek with the computer alot more.
