nacmacfeegle 0 #27 July 14, 2003 Well you still one hand free to hold the laser/gun whatever. This whole idea is a wrap waiting to happen. If you've ever done any crew then having a snagalicious thing like a pellet gun or laser pistol on your wrist, probably on a lanyard, then you'll quickly realise that this is probably an idea best kept to the campfire.....-------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

Guest #28 July 14, 2003 Canopy "Laser Tag" might be a better idea. Trouble is that in dogfighting, one seeks the advantage of being above and behind one's opponent.

PhillyKev 0 #30 July 14, 2003 How about you line your A lines below the cascades with powdered glass, then try to run into the other guys canopy and slice his lines with yours. Yeah...that should work Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkymonkeyONE 4 #36 July 21, 2003 Quotei can pretty securely say this will probably happen in the near future, since a certain swoopers birthday paintball guns are starting to appear at our DZ... the question is how much damage can you do to your canopies and lines? We have a lot of guys here at Raeford with Painball equipment and when it's shitty outside, they all go into the woods behind the main hangar and fight. Hadn't thought about taking them up on a jump. I can tell you that I won't be doing any of that, not with my gear. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
