  1. I fold mine using the mushroom technique...many BASE jumpers also use it. Only one issue so far: I packed my wife's PC that way and it was a harder pull than normal (still got it out) . Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  2. I'm in there - wish you could have made it down to Z-hills for the Chicks Rock Boogie...Best of Luck! Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.

    BLOWN UP, SIR!

    dude, don't give them new ideas [Newscaster Voice]News Flash - A hotel in downtown was rocked today when a whale bomb exploded on top of a truck...[/Newscaster Voice] Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  4. I'm going to NC in February...think there will be anyone jumping! Hello from Florida! Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  5. We should ask Michelle, I seem to recall her landing out near those woods! Seriously, the lake is about 3 miles (checked on a map) - I think your canopy has more "solo" time than Oren's now! Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  6. Wouldn't it just be easier to teach Heather how to pack? Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  7. Nice swoop photos! Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  8. Glad to hear you got it back!
  9. Wow, I think you've jumped as many aircraft as I have! Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  10. I didn't see any dates...when were you arriving - my wife and I drive past Tampa on our way to Z-hills (if it's on the same day we are going up, we might be able to get you a lift).
  11. Congrats on the rig - Brian makes some great stuff, doesn't he - I love my Samurai!
  12. Very nice photo - are you getting it blown up? Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  13. Bright colors on the body work best for visibility from above and below - mine has white and it's usually the first one people mention "seeing" from the ground. Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  14. Someone post some pictures!!! Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  15. Is this the start of the Friday Battle of the Altitudes? Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  16. Not sure if I can stay that late (or make it Saturday), work's been really busy. If I'm there, and we stay late, we are talking a night flock, right? Give me your number at the Chicks Rock Boogie and I'll let you know when I know. Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  17. I'm super bummed - darn work keeps getting in the way of skydiving... This is going to be a great boogie, right in my backyard and we can't be there. Hope everyone has a great time and posts LOTS of pictures!
  18. Great shot Angela, but how was the rest of the dive? Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  19. Keep the rear deflector dark as that is what you end up sitting on in the plane ! It's all good other than that! Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  20. MS Windows was version 3.0 before it was safe to use - we're just beta testers that pay for the right to be them. There will most likely be a price increase as the stability issue is resolved; that's my guess, anyway. Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  21. Rob at Morpheous is extending mine for $20 and putting dynamic corners on my wife's rig for $55...so yes, it can be done; I just wanted to stay with Sunpath parts. If you like after-market (I sometimes do), go for the Cazer. Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
  22. I'm having a longer bridle with center stows put on my d-bag and a longer bridle & dynamic corners on my wife's rig...I'm interested to see which has the most effect upon the openings. I'll let everyone know after this weekend!
  23. Hey Brian - miss seeing you around the DZ! Personally, I know (from talking with you) you are more precise in your work than PD...makes sense as your reputation is on the line. But the thing that makes your signature line a better option (to me), is that your "promised date" is something you have control over; if PD makes the canopy, you (Big Air) are just another customer. Just my personal experience from my own Samurai order. BTW: love my Samurai - thanks, Brian! Z-Flock 8 Discotec Rodriguez Too bad weapons grade stupidity doesn't lead to sterility.
