You can count on it. Weeeeeeee are the chammmmmpiooooons of the wooooooorld HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Thank you, thank you. Just kidding You know what? All the suits look great, we all got different taste, and we all think our suit looks the best. Peace for all and Happy Thankgiving to all my skydiving brothers and sisters. "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Ivan, your suit looks nice. But jump of that cloud....... Mine is the best. "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Nice suit.... By the way are you Puerto Rican? Yeap... I know, we got good taste, ha! Finally your suit is back, Ready for a three way with Kevin over Arecibo's Coast? Seeya! "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

My PC 5 died few weeks ago, after three long years of jumping and humidity in tropical weather. I didn't expect that lost. I wanted a few more years. I wasn't ready for that loss. Now... I'm looking to buy a new video cam, but I ain't got much money. Yes I know the PC 330 is killer but its to much money for now, I spend enough $$ on my Canon 10D, and a week after my PC5 says....NO MORE!. Is anyone out there using the new small TRV's that can recommend them or should I stick with the traditional PC's Ohh.... buy the way, Its going to be top mounted on my new mod. helmet. Thanks, "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Common Common people show me your suits. Will I attract lightning? Scaryyyyyyy! "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

And the winner is................. Me! I want to thank my manager, my assistant my beautifull wife Christie for helping me with the suit color combination. Also.... I want to thank Mr. Nelson Mandela, Gahndi, the Pope (just to keep the tradition) And my special thanks to Jari and all the beautifull people at BirdMan that made this dream a reality. Thank you all..... "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Mine is the best one. JeJe "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Im just kidding, we exit two ways without a problem, and both going out poised. "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Kevin, Just got back from Mass. I should have taken rig and WSuit the weather this saturday was almost like Puerto Rico, WAAAAARM! Sorry for not jumping with you, but you know got to work at the DZ. Promise, my next Bird flight will be with you. I know ill be hard to get a two way of an S3 and a GTI out of a cessna but we will get it. JAJA! See ya this weekend "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Im modifying a Hawkeye, Its an alluminum flat top that will hold both cams on top, (side by side). It also can be for side and top full platform. That might be an option. "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

If you see us next year, tell me you are who you are and I will introduce myselfe. CYA "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

No kidding you are tall. I was there, yeap at Rantoul and we were on the same C130 load, you were going for the hi-speed pass I was going for the not so fast wich end up beeing really fast also. I was first out with my wife Christie, Chris Martin, and Manuel. It was suppose to be a four way but it endup being a two way ans 1/2. It was a crazy jump run and suddenly GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGO Chris went fist and got lost in the air, Christie, Manuel and I exited after but the blast got Manuel and he was doing some Electroboogie trying to get stable. By the way, he had a line twist and had to cut away. Crhistie and I end up flying togeter. Maybe it was ment to be, that was our weddings first aniversary jump. Tall guy, its cool to se you got your new S3 that fits good, I wont forget how the yellow one looked. I also got my new S3, love it. If you want to fly some good scenery come down to Puerto Rico for our FreeFall Fest, feb 11-15 2004. CYA "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Drew.. julio4@centennialpr.net "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Can you email me and Ill reply so we can talk abot it. Man Im diying to play with it but I just cant. Gracias "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Never heard of it... What is it? "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

See... thats the thing. Im trying to calibrate it on /Setings/ Joystick & Equiptment but I have NO idea on how to calibrate the command with the joystick. Thats the whole problem. I dont know if I need some flying background to use this Sim. "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Any of you skydivers or pilots out there, have X Plane Flight Simulator? (By the way.... Im a Mac user) I bought it few weeks ago. I also bought a Yoke with all the features. Now.... How the F@*K do I fly the thing? I just can't sinchronize the Yoke with the program. I e-mailed for support but I haven't got an answer yet. I freaking desperate to fly and I just cant. Anyone outhere knows how to................... "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Andy and Jeff are also in my top list. "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Most of us know the Worl Cup is getting held at Perris this week. There's a lot of god guys fighting for the gold. Who is taking the fat gold home? Who is your favorite swooper and why? For me, the fight is going to be between Heath and Clint. I just wanna wish all the competitors the best and safest swoops of all. "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

You are deafinately the combination of a lawyer and a scientist, or shall I call you a "LAWYENTIST" Ive seen Luigi jumping his 46 many times, we competed together at Quincy in 2000. You shouls have seen that thing opening, or shall I say exploding. He was only giving a sec delay and that thing was like jumping a no slider BASE canopy and doing terminal OUCHHHHHH! He was coming in fast and under controll but that 46 looked like it was going to brake in pieces and the minimum toggle imput was notisable. From what I know Luigi is the only GOOD canopy pilot that has flown that high wing loading for many times. I repeat GOOD! My opinion of him flying this small canopy, is just to prove the world that CrossBraces canopies can hold a lot of wing loading and still fly. This doesnt mean that they will open soft or fly great, but they will fly. My question is, Why doesnt he flies it all the time? He is inteligent enough to know good from bad. When ever you have a chance, post a video of you surviving your landing, but please edit it only to see the "so called swoop and survival landing" I dont wanna se noone jumping from the plane. Your landing should fit in less than 50k, they are no that long anyways. "Blessings for you my son" read below "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

You are either a scientist or a lawer, cause you know it all and your never wrong. How is your math? A lot of people against one, dont you think thats equal to..... You are wrong! Freeflybella is telling you the truth and is also trying to help you live another day. About Heath, he knows what he is doing and he is doing it right. He is a good teacher and he is down to earth. You might wanna call him for some canopy coaching, then when you are ready, swooping coaching. Every one here is telling you the same thing and you still dont get it, your pictures talk for themselves. You are WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! If your goal is to be the pilot with the higest wing loading.... You got it! YEA! you the man! Congratilations! you should feel great. you did it! Now, get rid of your hankypanky, get a bigger canopy and go back to page one on this thread where Im giving you good advice and some tips that might help. Peace "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Here are few more pics. The one with the helicopter ia a 74VX The sony moment is my 78VX (sorry,it came out of a video) the other two are with the new XVXmod. Enyoy Soory if they look blurry "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Thanks Drew, I know you would have suggested that it anyways. "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

Aaaaait...... This is by far the funniest forum ive been! Bruno, Do you know what swooping is? I wish I had my first pic my dad took back in 1992 of my first jump. I think my wing loading was in the negatives. I had a manta 288 and I must have been like 150lbs out of the door, but eaven like that Ive would have swoop more than you on your "Gistro"55 By the way, Hello Ms.Freeffly bella, wassup, will we see you guys in Feb. say hi to your man. Common Rhino an Eames, Guys... are too deep on your brakes! JaJa! Just kidding. Those are niiiice pics. Steel, Every thing you read in this forum is cause we think you you are to heavy in your canopy and you can get hurt. I doesnt matter what discipline we practice, we are all skydiver and we love our brothers and our sport. we dont want you to get hurt. No that everyone is talking about videos, ho the hell can i post a video so that Mr. Steel can see what a swoop looks like. Blues.....YM4 OK GOT IT! HERE IS THE VID. "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog!"

One time at band camp.... I had put a few pounds on and was flying a VX74, my wing loading at the moment was a lot, 195lbs out the door flying a VX74. you do the math. That thing was fast with loooong swoops also, but I think is a little to heavy wing loading for my taste of an all around canopy. JaJa! Check out the pic. what do you think about the scenario?
