kkeenan 14 #51 June 28, 2006 QuoteI'm seriously considering getting an L&B Optima with flashing LED alarm. At 30-ways and bigger, it's starting to feel like one is becoming a requirement for bigways. If you think you need one, then you probably do. If your goal is to participate in more big-ways, an an audible (or LED) altimeter is a good idea. It's nice to be able to keep your eyes moving to survey your surroundings for traffic rather than stopping to focus on an alti. Kevin_____________________________________ Dude, you are so awesome... Can I be on your ash jump ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
packerboy 3 #52 June 28, 2006 Bwwaaahahaha... yeah, he can pack. He's such a busy guy though that paying attention to a pack job doesn't fit well in his dropzone repertoire. DeNReN: You still at Waterville? I'm coming out to do some jumps there at the beginning of August. Can't wait!

DeNReN 0 #53 June 29, 2006 See if you can get him to buy you a beer or 2...he was the 1st person besides me to jump my rig and if I recall correctly it was also his 1st time jumping a Triathlon(which is kinda hard to believe considering his jump numbers) I had the good fortune to help out at the SARTEC training last month as a packer for the instructors...learned a hell of alot those few days about packing and the SARTEC's(those guys have big brass balls)...didnt get to jump the Herc but hopefully by next time I will have my coach 1 and be able to help out and learn moreI'm at Waterville as much as I can be....and looking forward to seeing you there in Aug. How long are you coming down for? And yes I know Sam...great guyHere's a pic of Fuzzy boarding the Herc wearing my rig(red and black wings) and one of him landing it just in case ya try and get beer outa him Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
packerboy 3 #54 June 29, 2006 Only going to be there one day.. Aug 6. Make the weather good. I have already drank a few of Fuzzy's beers! In fact Wendy gave me a bag of beers from their trailer when I left Burnaby. None of the old guys Molson Special Dry though... I didn't realize Fuzz was out at the Sartech thing this year. -------------------------------------------------- In matters of style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock. ~ Thomas Jefferson Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildWilly 0 #55 July 7, 2006 I'm sorry I forgot. I pack my own and was quite busy that weekend so it slipped my mind. But after seeing you guys work all day, party all night then get up and do it all again I do apppreciate all you do for the people who use your services. Willygrowing old is inevitable, growing up is optional. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
