bucketlistpilot 1 #1 May 20, 2013 Transcript of a facebook conversation I had tonight with a mate of mine. All identifying names/places blacked out. Is this really going on with young jumpers? xxxxxxx are funny with wingloading how come? xxxxxx told me on sunday I should start thinking of downsizing And they have a student who has 30 jumps and he just bought a 170 and wingloads it at 1.4 But it hasnt arrived yet That's pretty fucked up I reckon. APF would love to hear that Yeh the guy was telling me and I was just like better you than me Like I dunno if this guy has even talkex to them about it I mean he seems really cocky And hes the guy who has had 2 chops in under 20 jumps I hate that shit. Bet they deny it when he pounds in Yeh fuck me It just seems weird Like seriously seems like this guy has just bought the gear hope he tries to take it somewhere else. They'll ground him for sure Yeh like I said he hasnt jumped it yet so im keen to see if he even gets to I questioned him about it and his reason for getting a 170 not a 190 was the container he bought only fits a 170 I won't be keen to go back there if they let him jump it. I'm not prepared to die getting hit by some fucktard who's way beyond his skill level I reckon hed only weigh like 5kg less than me Yeh I reckon I bet xxxxxx'd ground him at xxxxxxx Yeh I reckon so Find out what loads he's on and go on alternate ones to him Yeh im satrting to wonder if he actually would wingload at 1.4 or if he was just talking big Nah you'd have to be 108.18kg to be at 1.4 Yeh me and you would but I dont reckon this guy would Ohh but that includes gear. So 95kg would pretty much get you there Yeh I'm gonna black out the names on this conversation and see what people on the forums think Haha alright you jump last weekend? oh yeah SundayIan Purvis http://www.loadupsoftware.com LoadUp DZ Management App admin@loadupsoftware.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
