Its a DZ in Pennsylvania, but they are apparently moving their operation down to Belize for winter. Was hoping someone knew more about it.

What's the deal with STL in Belize? is it happening?

My brother's friend made me put on a bailout rig before he'd take me up in his Extra 300L. Told me if something happens, the glass canopy opens or whatever, look back. If he's not in his seat, get out and jump. Considering we were flying around over Monterey Bay, CA I didn't like that option. Thankfully I didn't have to bail. I flew aerobatics in an Extra 300 once. The guy told me that nobody has ever had to bail from one before. I wasn't totally against the idea of something going wrong.

I didn't believe in dust devils until I went on vacation to Perris a few weeks ago. I was so excited to see one on the ground, until I saw 3 under canopy.

I look at it as a metaphor. They all were at freedom until they leaped.

Seconded. Duane is solid. I was emailing him. Originally I was mostly interested in getting my B while I'm out there and I saw on the website Perris advertising a B license progression course if some sort. But Duane doesn't offer water training and he gave me another guy's email, but they haven't got back to me. I'm still considering taking Duane's course, but it is pricy compared to what is offered out here, I was wondering if it really is worth it.

Anyone ever take a canopy course at Perris? I'm going to California soon and was considering taking one, although it was a little pricy compared to whats offered in my region, but I'm willing to pay for it if I know its worth it. If anyone could give any input or some names that would be great.

Title sounds like a band name

My best was Limp Bizkit this past summer at The Stone Pony. Probably my favorite venue, and ironically while playing at such a tiny place a decade after their prime, they said it was one of their best shows they ever played. They only played their older stuff and we got to hear one they NEVER played live before. I guess if I had to pick a worst it would be a Dave Matthews Band show where all they played was their garbage like "You and Me" and "Satellite"

Why would they allow that many tandems to schedule at the same time Iin the first place?

I renewed mine last month a few weeks before I went on vacation to jump. The manifest had to call USPA and they were able to find my renewal, and the. I confirmed it by showing them my confirmation email. So it's not the end of the world if you think you NEED it right away.

We'll I'm still scared of heights, so being strapped in by a thin belt and climbing up a track a few 100ft gets me. I was freaking out on Kinda Ka at 6 flags once. My sister-in-law was like "you skydive..". But seeing the very top of the track and following it down to see I'm attached to it is scary. Don't get me started on Enchanted Tea Cups.

He was great in Twister and Almost Famous

Freeflying doesn't have to be expensive. If you want to be alone it will work in your benefit while your learning as nobody wants to freefly with someone who doesn't know what they are doing. As far as learning, all you need to do is experiment and ask for advice on the ground.

lol. I've been snuba diving and saw a cliff like that, it terrified me. The ocean scares me.

What is an everyday object that you don't own/use?

I have an iPhone, but only because work pays for it. Otherwise, I'm the same way. I don't have a single song on my phone, nor do I think I ever will. I'm opposite. I have a phone that makes phone calls and an iPod. As much as Apple sucks, iPods are one of the best inventions ever. -
I'm like the tortuous, I like to beat the hair

Snowboarding season is almost in its prime! Keep staying cold! I may go up to Vermont one of these weekends for some boarding, followed by some helicopter jumps!

I have GPS in the Jeep. Twice now I've had to use the iPhone's Apple Maps to find a destination because both the auto GPS and Google Maps on the iPhone got confused a few miles from the destination. (The auto GPS and Google Maps both use data from Navteq). Relying on GPS in general sucks. I have a lot of delivery jobs and I'm always getting taken to roads that don't exist lol

Boarding is Sooooo 80's (mine's been in the loft for ages now as Skiing is way more versatile ... up and down hill) Versatile = boring. I used to ski. It was cute.
-
Ever try to use Google Maps on a phone w/o it? *** Road maps bro. I also have a GPS. If I wanna email or fap, I like a desktop.
-
Phones with internet Clubbing (like at a club, not seals, although that too) Getting you shoes shined Paying extra for luxuries (like 1st class flying) Taco Bell Skiing when boards are available

Looks like there might be a sequel to "Goodfellas"?

I'd love to hear more about eggs noodles and ketchup -
How do you define "that much alike"? Anyone could tell you are identical. Obviously you can pick out all the differences, but the similarities in that photo way outnumber the differences.
