  1. How about just mounting one on your chest and not your head. Depending on where you point it, I think it would look kinda cool. For example you strap it on your chest and aim it straight to the ground, This will give you a good time to review your dive,(if your still trying to learn something) like tracking, involuntary turns etc. or you could point it at your head so you can get a cool canopy ride movie. Just a thought if people are drilling the helmet issue.
  2. More wheels = more surface area so it wont damage the runway when all the weight is transfered from the wings to the runway.
  3. mas·ti·cate ( P ) Pronunciation Key (mst-kt) v. mas·ti·cat·ed, mas·ti·cat·ing, mas·ti·cates v. tr. To chew (food). To grind and knead (rubber, for example) into a pulp.
  4. Ok so what happens if her gear gets wraped around her reserve canopy, partially inflates and then causes her reserve to deflate and start to spiral?!?! I would tell her to get on the ground and let her friends try to catch her main, or watch where it goes so they can get it back... (I sure as hell wouldn't to it)
  5. Well I was doing some reading and From the video it shows him jumping from a SKYVAN right?!? Well according to...http://www.luftfahrtmuseum.com/htmi/itf/ssvan.htm...the ceiling is 22,000ft hmm....
  6. if the light is on on the burner, then if you have a cd in there, there should be a little hole somewhere on front. Go get a pin and push in the little hole. If it still doesn't open you need to return it and get a new one. or get this one fixed. Sorry man.
  7. I dunno but I found this quote from someone who claims to be the developer of the skyray. about 3rd or 4th post from the bottom. http://dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_flat;post=587701;page=1;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;mh=25; I cant fathom the temperature argument. I ride a motorcycle and at 50F doing 70mph on the highway I would freeze if i wore what he did. Even with 3 pairs of pants, sweater,jacket, 2 pairs of gloves etc... I still get numb fingers. Now you want to talk about -100f no way.
  8. I'd like to know what the reasons were. I.E. Double mal. etc. Thanks.
  9. Given how cheap GPS's are, Why didn't he just wear one of those? Also a protrack or something?
  10. How about the quote that the average male thinks about sex every 30seconds. I think it would be every skydiver thinks of skydiving every second.
  11. SKYDIVE!! *Stands in corner and laughs as everyone wakes up, jumps and lays belly to earth, and someone doing a headstand in the corner*
  12. http://www.msf-usa.org/ I dont believe there is a power limitation here in the U.S. only other countries. (unless your under 16). I have a GS500 and it runs fine. you can find them for under $2000. $25/month insurance. www.gstwins.com

  14. I didn't want to post this in the incidents forum. I was watching real TV last night and it had a clip of an African American with a British accent doing his AFF 1 Jump in I believe Sebastian,FL a couple years ago. Anyway beside the normal wuffo talk from the announcer the jumper cutaway his perfectly good main at around 100' above the tree line. It appears the RSL pulled his reserve and he hit the trees at line strecth. He only suffered scratches and bruises. Does anyone know why he cutaway? To me it seems as though he thought he was going to land in the trees and just chopped it.
  15. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,93483,00.html "Aircraft destroyed in prior wars were littered across the airfield to make it more difficult for bombers to choose their targets." They say that the Iraqis threw pieces of destroyed aircraft all across the field so it would disguise any full aircraft (on radar)
  16. Late at night ~ 2am the local bar closed so all the drunks had to leave the bar. The local police knew this so they had an officer sitting across the street watching the drunks leave the bar. His eyes came across this one individual who couldn't walk 2 feet without falling down. So the officer decided that this was who he was going to arrest for DUI, but he had to wait for the man to get into his car and attempt to drive off. So the cop waited and waited, By this time all the other drunks had left the bar and this one man finally made it to his car, got in, and started to drive off. The officer quickly pulled him over and asked the man to step out of the car. The man asked in a completely sober voice "whats wrong officer," the officer replied "I am going to give you a sobriety test because I think you are drunk" to which the man replied "you aren't going to find anything" "why not" said the officer, and the man turned and smiled at the officer and said "Because I am the designated Drunk"
  17. *walks quietly into room* "Hi, My names Jeff and I'm an addict"
  18. Theres tons more www.liquidgeneration.com and go to sabotage, theres one with a dolphin quietly saying "I love you" and then 2 seconds later it screams "ANAL SEX.COM!" hehe.

  22. Not sure but I think Cabbage (the purple lettuce) should counter act with the acid in your stomach. Remember the acid base experiment in middle school. Umm.. I found Milk doesn't help much just kinda covers it up for an hour. Alkaline, maybe most of the sport drinks. aka gatoraid, powerade etc..
