Right now, I'm using the "Headphones + head-banging music" combo to keep me awake

I haven't bought my own rig yet, so I'm not really sure, but I guess it's because of packing volume and weight. Logically, you should buy a bigger reserve, because you might be hurt or unconscious when you need it. "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching."

Of course. I meant all things being equal. "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching." Dudeist Skydiver #101

For me, it went away after 15-20 jumps. Now, it's different, I don't know how to call it: excitement, exhilaration? Still some kind of fear, but a much more pleasant one, like a fear that's more focused and stimulating. "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching."

Wow, wonderful cinematography! Very well done!! "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching." Dudeist Skydiver #101

Is that the reason why elliptical canopies turn faster? The input will still produce drag at the wing tip, but a lot less "adverse lift" (which counters the effect of the input) than rectangular ones? "One day, your life will flash before your eyes.

There's a good article right here ---> http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/safety/detail_page.cgi?ID=323 "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching." Dudeist Skydiver #101

In Switzerland, in order to get the A license you need to pass a written exam divided in 5 parts: Gear knowledge, "Jumping procedures", Aerodynamics, Meteorology, and Legislation. Is there something similar in other countries? Just curious. "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching." Dudeist Skydiver #101

There was a "Super Puma" at my home DZ this summer, but the weather was bad that week-end. "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching." Dudeist Skydiver #101

It's celbrated on August 13 since 1976. Very very few people are really ambidextrous, almost all of them have a dominant hand (usually the left one). "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching." Dudeist Skydiver #101

the place to be that weekend was pretty close... 10th Freeflyfestival in Grenchen. Lots of fun, good jumps and beautiful people. Plus the An-28

Simon Ammann, 4-times olympic gold medalist in ski jumping. He's a licensed skydiver with 55 jumps. He was at my home dropzone this week-end, did 6 jumps, including 4 jumps from 25'000ft AGL.

2 Corinthians 2:14 But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Him in every place. Really? Oh darn, I guess I was wrong my entire life. There is a God. Thank you so much, you opened my eyes. I'm going to pray right now. I'm out of here. "One day, your life will flash before your eyes.

I would go for Muay Thai, because i think it's better for what you want to achieve: when you know the basics, you can buy a heavy bag and practice on your own, without a sparring partner and without much risk of injuries. Just my 0.02. Have fun!

Start with the Gospel of John, then Matthew, Mark and Luke. After that read Romans. Okay, so there is a book about God. Good for him, but I bet there are books about Santa, too. So, except your freaking fables book that I don't give a crap about, is there a difference? And please, can you give me your own opinion? Do you even have one? I am not willing to invest more in YOUR salvation than you are willing to invest. Do your homework. I asked three times. You still didn't answer. I guess that means you don't see any difference between Santa and God. How does it feel to be defeated by a childish analogy?

Damn! Did you even read the article (from an Israelian newspaper) you linked? "No group in Gaza claimed responsibility for the rocket fire. Hamas has said it is trying to stop militants from firing at Israel, but smaller groups have continued the attacks." "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching."

There are books about Santa, and lots of them! Thanks Andy! "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching." Dudeist Skydiver #101

Why don't you enlighten me? Because... a) it's not my job. b) I don't have that much time and/or patience. c) I wouldn't know where to begin. Pick one. "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching." Dudeist Skydiver #101

Oh, I'm so sorry, you're right! So what was your answer back then? Let me check... Nice one! So please explain to the stupid soon-to-be-rotting-in-hell agnostic that I am, why is that analogy childish? Seriously, what is the difference between Santa and God? How is God more than just a shared imaginary friend? "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching." Dudeist Skydiver #101

You don't know much about the whole Israel/Palestine situation, do you? "One day, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching." Dudeist Skydiver #101
