Uhm good idea thanks! "That makes me angry, and when Dr. Evil gets angry, Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset. And when Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset....people DIE!!!"

Don't worry I was not going to kidnap them for sure... But as for all of you, I was "convinced" by someone. You just don't wake up one day saying "hey let's go spend 250$ for a 50 sec freefall".

What I meant by safe is that the fatality rate is lower than scuba diving or other sports.. I know that my life is at risk, but flying an ultralight is riskier if the statistics are correct...

heheh But I need real solutions... Should I make it look hard (ex: "Skydiving is not for everyone", thus motivating them) Or make it look easy... "That makes me angry, and when Dr. Evil gets angry, Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset. And when Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset....people DIE!!!"

Hi gang, I really need some tips to make some whuffos jump. I showed them some videos (tandems and my aff filmed jump) Tried attracting them by using a "critical mass" effect (almost everybody in the gang comes so the remaining ones won't want to miss the moment... They all cancelled afterwards). Tried to explain to them how safe it is and that coming down with the chute is safer than coming down with the plane... They all say its to costly (285$ Can here in Québec) but I think its b*ll sh*t... A dive can't be reasoned in an annual budget... I need strategies to convince them... Anything, should I kidnapp them? Pour la patrie "That makes me angry, and when Dr. Evil gets angry, Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset. And when Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset....people DIE!!!"

How do you use your Closing Pin Necklace?
Kerozene replied to Casch's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Oops forgot: - I never wear it during freefall (afraid to lose it). - I usually don't bring it to the DZ... (It usually acts as a reminder of this magnificient sport during boring moments in school/job. So I don't need "remembering" when I have a rig on.)

Kerozene replied to Casch's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I wear it during the day but take it off for the night... I usually keep it a bit hidden when my friends are around because they know what it is and it gives me a "uh uh I'm a skydiver , I'm so great " look. They're also tired of my "go skydive now" routine so the pin is some kind of harassment too for them In public places (concerts, bars) I leave it visible and one other skydiver recognized it.

"But since we are setting ourselves up as world policemen, it makes sense that some of the world will look at us that way." I'm happy to be your neighbor (Quebecer), but there is sometimes a problem when a country becomes police, judge and jury...

Happythoughs: I didn't say that aiding Africa is bad. I'm not questionning the actions taken...which are good... I'm questionning their motives... And I won't be surprised to see their motivation "disapear" once the elections are finished. "That makes me angry, and when Dr. Evil gets angry, Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset.

thanks nacmacfeegle, French words are sometimes so similar to english words... so confusing "That makes me angry, and when Dr. Evil gets angry, Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset. And when Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset....people DIE!!!"

Sorry for spelling mistake: "Wish" I lived in Europe, ... pardonnez-moi pour la faute. "That makes me angry, and when Dr. Evil gets angry, Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset. And when Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset....people DIE!!!"

Simple: they want african-american votes for the next elections... They want to gain sympathy by "taking care" of some of the problems in Africa...(AIDS, conflicts etc) How generous of them Elections in north america (canada and USA) are nothing more than mascarades... Which I lived in Europe... "That makes me angry, and when Dr. Evil gets angry, Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset. And when Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset....people DIE!!!"

Hi guys (and girls) I'm kinda new here to these forums... I know that a whuffo is someone who haven't jumped yet... But why is it called a "whu - ffo". I'm french-canadian by origin so I'm not totaly familiar with english terms... I've done a search in the forums... found nothing...

May this has been though of before... Maybe this has been... sorry for the typo.. "That makes me angry, and when Dr. Evil gets angry, Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset. And when Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset....people DIE!!!"

They should paint the metal bracket yellow or red so when the strap doesn't pass through it, the color is still visible. When the strap would correctly wrap the buckle/bracket, the red color would be hidden... May this has been though of before... I triple check my chest strap on every jump... I'm almost paranoid about it... "That makes me angry, and when Dr. Evil gets angry, Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset. And when Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset....people DIE!!!"

Finished PFF, anyone here from Québec?
Kerozene replied to Kerozene's topic in Introductions and Greets
There is one in Farnham (30 min south east of Montreal), one in Victoriaville (2 hours from montréal, north east), and there's Bellefeuille at 30 minutes north of montréal (best view of the three). If you go to Québec City (in the province of Québec, how confusing), there is a drop zone named "Atmosphair". But I never jumped in that dropzone... I hope this help!

Hi everybody, just finished my PFF in Bellefeuille, QC. They have a magnificent drop zone (nice scenery) and very kind people! Is there someone here from Québec in Canada?
