Namowal 0 #30 October 8, 2011 Quote Thanks for posting (again). These are fabulous. And you did great on the release, once you got arched properly. No chipping or turning, nice and stable. Great Job!!! Please keep the story going. One thought - Ryoder wrote: Quote Some of the funniest stuff I've read since Airtwardo's posts, but with much better pictures!

Note: If you go looking, DO NOT open the DB Cooper thread. It would be fun to make cartoons out of other people's stories (if they were cool with it, of course).

Tink1717 2 #32 October 10, 2011 You're an outstanding cartoonist. You need to keep publishing these and maybe get a slot in one of the magazines (Blue Skies, Parachutists, etc...) . Yep, it's that good.Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink. (I never heard of you either!!)

billvon 2,996 #35 October 10, 2011 Wow. I haven't seen anyone bring your artistic talent, self-awareness and sense of humor to skydiving before. I hope you keep it up. (It would be cool to see your take on, say, 4-way or wingsuiting.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dougiefresh 0 #38 October 14, 2011 These are great! I like that even your alti is correct. And you're doing fine. Arching is overrated anyway. Why do you think so many people freefly? No arching required. Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. --Douglas Adams Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
