  1. This thread has been scientifically designed to allow you to blurt out things that you want to say to other dz.commers, but don't, for whatever reason. Just spew it out here, get it off your chest: insults, invective, vitriol, public displays of secret lust, insults, tirades, insults, rants, insults... whatever. You'll feel better for having gotten it off your chest, Think of this thread as a virtual punching bag. Only one "rule" (I hate rules): name no names. (this has probably been done before, as there's nothing new under the sun, but... deal with it) I'll start the ball rolling: you're not as cool as you think you are
  2. There is a womans version to that too, maybe you missed it. I'm glad I'm a woman, yes I am, yes I am. I don't live off of Budweiser, Beer Nuts and Spam. I don't brag to my buddies about my erections. I won't drive to Hell before I ask for directions. I don't get wasted at parties, and act like a clown. And I know how to put that damned toilet seat down! I won't grab your hooters, I won't pinch your butt. My belt buckle's not hidden beneath my beer gut. And I don't go around "re-adjusting" my crotch, or yell like Tarzan when my headboard gets a notch. I don't belch in public, I don't scratch my behind. I'm a woman you see-I'm just not that kind! I'm glad I'm a woman, I'm so glad I could sing. I don't have body hair like shag carpeting. It doesn't grow from my ears or cover my back. When I lean over you can't see 3 inches of crack. And what's on my head doesn't leave with my comb. I'll never buy a toupee to cover my dome. Or have a few hairs pulled from over the side. I'm a woman, you know-I've got far too much pride! And I honestly think its a privilege for me, To have these two boobs and to squat when I pee. I don't live to play golf and shoot basketball. I don't swagger and spit like a Neanderthal. I won't tell you my wife just does not understand, Or stick my hand in my pocket to hide that gold band. Or tell you a story to make you sigh and weep, Then screw you, roll over and fall sound asleep! Yes, I'm so very glad I'm a woman, you see. Forget all about that old penis envy. I don't long for male bonding, I don't cruise for chicks Join the Hair Club For Men, or think with my dick. I'm a woman by chance and I'm thankful, it's true. I'm so glad I'm a woman and not a man like you!
  3. There is a girl at my dz with a 170, so I will try that first. Thanks for all the advice...I think I'm against the Triathlon because 2 guys at my home dz have them and they get bad line twists alot, causing both of them to have 2 cutaways in their last 200 jumps. Just my opinion...but Triathlon would be my last choice of canopy.....
  4. Ok, I am ready to buy my own gear. I have been renting a 190 Sabre from the dz for a few months now. I want to buy a 150 Sabre2, the thing is I have never jumped a 150. I know I need to jump one before buying one, but I'm actually pretty nervous about it. I only weigh 125, but I am still afraid it's going to bring me in super fast...is there a big difference in speed between the 190 and 150?? If I buy a 190 instead, then sometime soon(when I get the courage) I will jump a 150 and wish I had bought that. I already know that the 150 turns faster, and I'm not a real "canopy happy" person, so I'm not worried about turning low, my main concern is landing. Although I land the 190 well, I bring the toggles down slowly but all in one motion....people tell me with the 150 I will need to do a 2-step flare. Anyhow, my question is, will there be a big difference in the two canopies?? Or am I being way too concerned?
