mccordia 74 #2 June 9, 2006 Nice..the first real contest with prize-money! But a too bad it a long freefall time contest. Distance or artistics would mean everybody would have an equal chance...longest freefall could end up being a skinny/light people contest (or 'people that sport and mind what they eat' and dont weigh more then a truckload of anvils)JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

mccordia 74 #4 June 9, 2006 Quote Cosytn is gonna kick eveyones ass!! Dont know..I dont think it counts if its not on video and we dont turn in un-edited footage via email.. I think we might have to just accept that we'll loose and watch someone else be the 'first' Do think Perry should take a stab at this one... Insane amounts of experience..being a fantastic flyer...AND the right weight to fly the looongest times ever....the guy is unbeatable..(we'll..you CAN beat him..but he'll probably like it and scream for more)JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

speedy 0 #14 June 12, 2006 I've lost count of how many times people have typed ADD when they mean AAD. The people with budget constraints, they will just have make sure they win the prize money. I can think of many reasons why having an audible is a good idea when wing suit jumping but would prefer not to discuss them in this thread. This is just about getting a lot of wing suit flyers together for a great weekend with a chance to win the prize money.

voodew1 0 #25 August 4, 2006 Thats great Tom -- you haven't hardly showed your face in weeks -- no banning me or Ted or even really responding to anything and when you finally do its about cookies???? You must be from California??? I just don't know what to think about this forum anymore - it seems to be about humor and gays (sorry to out you Hoover) What happened to the old days of instructors vs the teaching non-instructors ----- Oh never mind Phoenix-Fly opened up. Next time you post Tom make it very serious and to the point --- That is all edit:(the funniest part about this is that while I was writing this Matt was responding at the same time and I beat him to the punch --- Sorry Matt) The pimp hand is powdered up ... say something stupid Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
