*** Well, if I had had just one, yesterday I would have lost 2 grand worth of gear. I launched a greased safe out of a King Air (how many people have done that!) and I cracked my jaw against the plane as we exited. This released my chin cup as I dropped off the plane. If I hadn't had the chin strap too, I probably would have lost the whole kit and kaboodle. I reattached the ratchet while head down in formation (and turned my camera back on) and got most of the skydive ( a 700th celebration). I'm glad for the second strap. I practice a quick one-two release the same way every time, and I think it's worth it. I pick two.

I scored mine, USED, at B&H. Sometimes they've got great stuff in their used section. B&H photo/video

Did we already debate how hot FF and RW chics are?? I belive we did... The freefly chic's won because belly flying is the "MISSIONARY POSITION" of skydiving, while freeflying is the "KAMA SUTRA" Female RW flier exits, belly down. Male RW flier docks from behind and/or above. What mission is that?

I use a stroboframe QR, and I trust it to the tune of a couple of hundred dollars

We probably can't get you to wait since you've got the gear, but you should wait till about 200. Since you're gonna jump it anywaydon't get anywhere near the aircraft without a gear check by someone who is very veteran. Never forget your priority is the skydive, not the video. Check of three's, camera on on jump run, record on flaps down. Then forget about the camera. Video tape is cheap, trade it for increased concentration on the skydive.

Nothing says "thank you" better than BEER!

I'm thinking biggest belly way in California is 10, but I have no idea. Sangiro-san, any possibility of setting up a DZ.com records area? It could be broken down into world, national and state. Belly, Free, naked, bikini, and hybrid could be skydiving areas with special sections for drunkeness and debauchery. (The second inevitably follows the first!) No pictures no proof! But what are the current records?

Rocks no salt with xtra shot of Grand Marnier!~ Now we're cookin. I tended bar in an El Torito and a Red Robin for a couple years and Grand Marnier instead of Triple sec is one of the secrets. 1800, and Rose's lime are the others. Presidente is good too. Shaken and strained, serve with salt only if the drinker broke a sweat that day. It's before 8 am and that sounds very good right now!

What the f*ck is wrong with you!? This MUST start "No shit, there I was..." (blinding innocent people ya ya ya) Don't let this happen again. You know better

No! Burn em' instead of coal! Ah, hell. But what do we feed them? The rainforest? Use them to cut fire breaks in the great northwest? Yeah! and we engineer them so the pellets are a delicacy in Asia, and we have Clay set up the franchise. OK. Seriously. I got no business typing at this point. I can breathe now, but I'm insane.

That's it! We use stem cell research to create huge genetically mutated 100,000 horsepower hamsters to run in giant particle accelerator sized hamster wheels. This could work. (I have taken so much cold medicine today that I am no longer rational) OUT

Yeah! Berkeley's finest source of hard news! Hey, did you know there's an initiative on Berkeley's ballot to ban the sale of all coffee in the City that wasn't organically grown, by union labor, yadayada? coffee is gonna be like $10 a cup. True!

What the hell? Nuclear to crack the hydrogen out of seawater, solving the oil problem and the fresh water problem for Southern California through nuke posered [slydesalinization! Bill when you're in charge, can I be your sycophant? But I want a cool Manuel Noriega uniform.

That one with the naked women on it that's like $5. Bay Area Connections or something like that.

Dammit! And I knew how to disarm those from watching Keanu do it. Sh*t.

God, I love this group more and more each day.

Clearly, it would require country music.

Dude, I know how to use an "elastrator". You use that or the knife? Happy day for the doggies.

You know you're in trouble when a fella says "I'd like you to meet my wife, and sister" and there's one woman standing there.

Martha Stewarts' a weevle?
-
Ok I'll ask for you. "How many sheep?"
-
Martha asks the question: "Is a shank cutlery?"

I've got a hawkeye, and it's really a lot more comfortable with the chincup ratcheted down. It's wobbly without it. I've never jumped it with just the chinstrap, and I don't really want to.

Is Clay coming? I'll have to explain that "that young man is just helping the sheep climb over the fence, sweetie"
