Ncrowe 0 #26 August 9, 2004 As far as the June cover goes , April's a hottie and I'd like to see how cool you'd cool jumping from a helo. People definetly need to learn to bitch and moan just a tad less in such a close knit community such as skydiving. "Don't Mess Around With the Guy in Shades- Oh No!!!

Kbone 0 #28 August 9, 2004 QuoteAnother rant altogether: What the hell does sex appeal have to do with cover shots of a female skydiver in Parachutist?? It's not Parachutits FFS!! Unfortunately sex appeal is very important in our society. I used to be a professional photographer but I got soo fed up with the way my photos of celeberties were manipulated and made to look sexier than they really were. Just a few examples of original negatives I dug up(attached) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kbone 0 #31 August 9, 2004 Quoteyou expect us to believe those pictures? You can believe whatever you want to believe. It doesn't matter weather they are fake or not. I'm just suprised Parachutist doesn't use PhotoShop to touch or enhance their cover shots as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #34 August 9, 2004 So, all of those photos are pictures of the actresses looking "fat", which I'm assuming means that they aren't sexy. But, by looking at your avatar (if that's you), it seems you could stand to lose a few pounds also. Kind of a double standard, don't you think?She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just playing devil's advocate, I think his point was to photoshop-up the images to make them look better than they actually do. I'm guessing he did that to his avatar. Right kbone?

Kbone 0 #37 August 9, 2004 Quoteit seems you could stand to lose a few pounds also Why do I need to loose weight? I'm not trying for the cover of Parachutist, and more importantly, I don't depend on my appearence to earn a living. There really isn't that much emphasis on men to "look good". If there were, we would all have to wear makeup! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deuce 1 #42 August 9, 2004 Nah, I'll let others vouch for me. I know tons of folks at Perris. You have made all of about 13 posts, most of them inflammatory, so I suppose you are just a little man stuck alone under florescent lights somewhere stirring up a fight . So sad.

Deuce 1 #47 August 9, 2004 Yeah, that's where DZ.com is so different. When I was in Sweden I had quite a few folks from around the world introduce themselves. When Duderon makes himself known on some DZ, he'll likely get the "Oh, you're the little guy with the hangup about overweight women..." I'm thinking a guy in the sport 15 years jumping a hyper-perfomance canopy at Perris would probably be known to a few people at least. Somebody please tell me this is all tongue in cheek.

hipgnosis 0 #50 August 9, 2004 I like the Angelina Jolie one. You know, the one with the "Worth 1000" watermark. You know, the site that is basically one big photoshop contest. Quite impressive for an original negative. Also I don't recall seeing you at Perris yet this year, or even hearing your name. With your jump numbers this is rather surprising to me, so where are you hiding on the DZ? Hipgnosis Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
