I have to agree, if the guy had any friends he would have built it using a much larger fridge. The size he has, he is obviously drinking alone My thinking is that he would have someone to toss him a beer if he had any friends. This is one of those things like having to button your own shirt sleeve buttons because you're single. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

This contraption is the most depressing thing I've ever heard of. I really hope that this guy will get some friends out of the publicity he's getting on this. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

By the way, is there any concerted effort to keep this whole thing from sliding towards the abysmally stupid? "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Not only is Skyride unethical...they're not too bright...

HA! No, that's about the most honest they've ever been! "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher -
Holy Internet Gone Wild. I'm not questioning you, Kelly. I'm describing what the USPA coach's course is. A three day class is no where to learn. That's why it's required/requested that you learn items in the IRM and show up with a certain skill set. You owe me beer go going internet beserk on my shit. Sam Adams White Ale, please.

Wow, that's a Big Top 40 pile of garbage. Who made THAT list, Casey Kasem? "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Ouch. The 3 12 hour days I spent in the "non-course" were pretty educational, IMO. Edit. That did NOT include the ground prep and evaluations done later after the classroom time As were the hours I spent; I learned alot because the course answered questions I already had. I'll use the phrase "Teaching is a learning experience". You can't possibly learn all that you need in those 36 compressed hours of class and you also didn't retain all that was in your class. It's a poor medium in which to learn. You basically learned what you need to know to pass the eval. The entire reason that you're supposed to show up with test already completed is because you must have spent time studying and learning BEFORE you get there.

Wow! Someone knows so much about flat packing. I have seen cool guys Pro-packing so fast the some flat-packing old-farts could pack 3 canopies while cool ones were dealing with a single. Gabor, would you like a beer? Hey somethingelse....told ya so. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

You don't actually learn much in the Coach's Course, the term "Course" is a bit of a misnomer. It should be called "Coach's Evaluation". You are supposed to show up with the knowledge and skills required to coach the appropriate levels. You then review the course material and establish the evaluation guidlines by which you'll be tested. Taking the course for the purposes of learning is a waste of your time. If you want to learn about coaching then read a book on the subject. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

You should know that flat packing in a crowded packing area will result in people wishing they had a little voodoo doll of you that they could poke pins into. You're taking up about four packing lanes with all the area you use. Basically it's uncool. And being cool is the most important thing in skydiving. Now there will be about 10 posts from people who flat pack and will say that you can pack how you want to...blah blah. All I have to say to them is "We pee in your beer before giving it to you."

Is there ANY way to do this? I'm getting bored playing for play money but I'm not going to pay unless I can withdraw winnings. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

I'm looking forward to hearing about the tech support problems Soldier: Nothing's coming out of the barrel. Tech Support: Ok, first check to make sure that there are bullets in the barrel chamber and then manually pull the firing mechanism. Soldier: Ok, I'm looking down the barrel... Tech Support: WAIT! WAIT! WAIT! WAIT! "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

I'm going to go ahead and have my ass sewn shut and have a colostomy done. That way I can just throw the bags out the window. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Sure, the DZ can make whatever rule they want. That doesn't make it right. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

In actuality reading FAR's has been proven as a cure for lazy eye. The opposite effect is reported for people who's eyes are not already crossed. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

There's no way that Billy said that. You've got to be kidding me. I'm sorry, He's got to be kidding YOU. If he actually thinks that is so then pack somewhere else or don't pack for his school. Also, tell him to pay you back for that repack. That's BS, you can't have students think about paying for cut-away or lost gear. Also, tell Roland that the Louisa crew says hello.

Indeed. I wanted people to think "You gotta be kidding me" and have them be pleasantly surprised: "Yes, he's kidding." Unstable: Thanks. I just wanted to make sure all the facts wher in one place. I'm at your service. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

No! No! No! No! Get that silly so-called fact based nonsense out of my thread before I tell a moderator on you! "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Nope. The link is exactly how I want it. Reading between the lines, I'm saying that the whole thing is a joke. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Please read the statement before responding to this. Basically, the closing loop that is delivered with the Javelin Container is part of their TSO and only a Master Rigger may make such an alteration to the container.

Completely true. I should probably edit the "happening place" to say what I really mean, that you know you'll have a good time with the people because they're open and social. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Yeah, I guessed that exposure in Parachutist and Skydiving would be the lowest ranking option. Most of the DZ's you see there are already spoken about more prominently elsewhere. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
