bendywendy 0 #27 October 2, 2003 Quote I think"XTream" sports and Skydiving are almost exact opposets. EXTream sport is high school yuppies with skateboards whos definition of "air time" is a 5-foot jump. I used to play a lot of paintball, it's the same thing - a lot of immature kids set the immage and eat it up. In my opinion, skydiving is a little more refined than these games. Are you telling me that you haven't met any EXTreamly immature skydivers who get off on the whole EXTream thing. Who jump just so they can prove and brag about how EXTream they are? And I've got to tell you I'll probably get a lot more banged up trying to catch five feet of air on a skateboard than catching 13,500 any day. I know how to land my parachute but how do you land on a piece of wood with wheels on the bottom that isn't even strapped on. That's beyond me. EXTream is in the eye of the beholder, I guess. Actually, I'm just playing devil's advocate - the whole extreme thing bugs the crap out of me too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jfields 0 #29 October 2, 2003 QuoteReal mavericks dont wear shoes....you are so glued to the envelope.. A new sport.... X-Treme Envelope Licking. So, like I was going after this X-Tra difficult mint-flavored-glue manilla 9x12 envelope with metal clasp, when I got this really gnarly, nasty cut on my tongue, but that didn't stop me. I kicked its ass anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
happythoughts 0 #30 October 3, 2003 I have a cable channel where there is an informercial on Extreme Real Estate. The dweeb in charge has an Extreme Real Estate Team too. I wonder what definition changes you to an ERET member? "Dude, this is no s***... there I was, thought I was gonna die, and bam... we waived the points and closed the deal..."

Vertifly 0 #36 October 3, 2003 The other day, I was in B&H Photo in NYC. I was talking to the salesperson about setting up a camera helmet and what it would take. After finding out that it was for skydiving, he said, "That's scary......and crazy." Agitated for just one second, something more empathic came out of my mouth. I said, "If I am one of the smart ones I should be scared. If not, then YES, I'm crazy." The dude just looked at me like a deer in headlights.... with the locks and all. LOL BWahahahahah.

321seeya 0 #37 October 3, 2003 QuoteI picture a dweeb with highlights saying "duuude!" Next, I picture a marketing department brainstorm, "I know, we'll callit 'X-treme Diet Cola.' Someone call the 'Dell-Dude' and see if he's available for a spot." It's just a friggin sport. It's skydiving, it's kayaking, it's flying a FUCKING KITE. How did "EXTREME" become the prefix for EVERYTHING? Whats wrong with highlights? And I'm done. BASE 3:16 - Even if you are about to land on a cop - DONT FORGET TO FLARE!

SkyAnt 0 #38 October 3, 2003 What I want to know is how Volley Ball became extreme? If you ask me, if there are no "Boobies"(BTW I hate that word) it aint extreme.

lazyfrog 0 #41 October 3, 2003 Elliptical X-braced Tri-cell (reme) - I'm not sure of the FX vs. VX part of the nomenclature. in this case X stands for cross, like boarder-X, skier-X etc... in my case I used to be an Xtreme sleeper...

DJL 235 #43 October 29, 2003 Yes, it was the inspiration but I got the joke. I laughed when I saw the XXX's. Be careful. If you'd put another X on there then someone's head would have popped off if they'd read it out loud. Try it on an unsuspecting co-worker. "XXXXTreme!"
