Most likely it'll be more of a jumping jet, unless you want to buy every spot on the load.

Adding on to what Quade said, get a site. If you want to do really good video and eventually stills, you will want the accuracy that a site will give you. It's easier to give up a site once you have it figured out, than to be guessing pending review of the tape.

I jump a relatively heavy setup and I just get aligned in the normal, head up position when I deploy. I wait to get stood vertical and slowed-down and then I look up to see what is going on. I jump two Spectre's because I don't want to sweat a canopy that has a higher likelyhood of spanking me or spinning up. Once I'm vertical, I look up and stow and release.

F*ck no! Just needed my wife to take the pics. I look absolutely fabulous in the suit, ese! I'll set up the tripod and get some tomorrow, Mr. Tangerine. All will see me in my suit, and the men will fear me and the women will want me. No sh*t! No F*cking Sh*t. Hahar.

Tunmi is 7, my daughter Camille is 6. Camille is badass too.

I'll continue to fly it all! When I get this thing figured out I will have achieved my original skydiving goal: to be able to jump with whoever is in the hangar in whatever discipline they have the most fun at. I knew I needed one when Loudiamond showed up at Eloy with his, and I just couldn't play. Now that CrackMonkey had better be checking his six.

Most video/stills setups are as heavy or heavier than a newer full-face motorcycle helmet.

I rewired my cameras so I can have them facing backward. Whoever is on my back will have a beautiful set of close-ups, and I'm sure we can get some other flockers to be in the field of view. Who's yer buddy?

Mouth, we gotta get you one of those wireless internet thingies so you can keep in touch. The forum is just not the same without you. You are booked on whatever turns out to be DeuceBirdRodeo number 1 at Eloy. Sunny, bring the outfit!
-
That means that the DeuceBird Mark1, Mod 0 suit will fit you, oh, SeaBass. You ready to put the needle in your arm? The first fix is always free!

No, I was advised they weren't a necessity on the 3, and the tail is so wide it barely interferes with walking. I don't intend to, but with about 10mph of wind I could land this thing without unzipping the legs at all.
-
I was sorely tempted to have the "Super Bird Man" logo on the front, but I think I'll wait until I'm completely dialed in. Edit: Turtle, all my stuff is these colors. My camera suit is just about identical.
-
My nylon crack, that is. The flockage is on at Eloy, peeps!
-
It fits perfect. So much better than the one I borrowed. There's elastic in the wrist, which I guess was a trouble spot in some other people's suits. The workmanship appears to be absolutely outstanding. The arms and legs unzip easily and fast. It's just beautiful. Can't wait to jump it! JP

Nah, Nigerian, not Tibetan. I think she should change her last name to Dunkonya.

We were cracking up when the other parents got a gander of her. She's 7, but she's standing next to one of my kids who just turned 6, and is on the small side. At one of these games somebody is going to demand a birth certificate! It was so much fun. CYO basketball is great. Pizza after with the other families was cool too.

The weapon is named Tunmi.

Having that separate high performance landing area is brilliant. You SDA folks are first class! -
That what it costs to mail me those parts?
-
Yeah, the top part pops off, and you can just have the red button sticking out. JP

I just got this in the mail today, and it's even scarier.

In the preview, I was really put off by the Cat opening up the picture of the kids mom, and having it be what was supposed to be a nude centerfold, and the Cat getting all wound up watching it, with the kids able to see it too. Some of the other stuff looked pretty funny, but from what I've read, they tried to make it both a true adult comedy, and a kid film at the same time. I can't think of a bawdy kids movie that worked since the original Bullwinkle cartoons. Anyhow, there is an interesting write up of Dr. Seuss here http://www.nationalreview.com/miller/miller200311210832.asp which has some funny observations about how Dr. Seuss was subversive. I love all the Seuss books, and wish that this film had been done by Pixar. The "Finding Nemo" folks really know how to make a movie the whole family can enjoy.

Stop giving me ideas....

My phone rings while I'm talking to Moms at CYO basketball practice and I check the display and it says "Scott" I couldn't pick it up, monkeylip, cause there's just no way I could talk to a drunk monkey without dropping at least one "F-bomb" into the conversation. I did not sound like y'all were sucking. No, no suit yet. It's due Monday. I will be practicing my back flying so I can take delectible shots of FlockMonkeys at Eloy. Bring it MonkeyLip. I am prepared.
