  1. We just entered a video contest and used a bunch of skydiving footage I shot in Rantoul and elsewhere, check it out, we had fun making it. Go to Youtube and search on xetremeenergy (make sure you mispell it this way) ; who knows, you may be one of the people in it, especially if you jumped a bit at Deland or Skydive Space Center or attended a WFF convention. Hey, pass the link around, if we win first place you may get a ride and brewski in the wrapped FJ that is the first place prize.
  2. no big deal. I rode from Daytona to WWF 3-years in a row on my bike and also rode to Skydive Space Center in Titusville and Skydive Deland many times with my rig bungee'd onto the seat behind me. A gear bag is best and safest but you can just put a couple of bungees around the container and even if Murphy visits things shouldn't go too wrong. I actually wore the rig a couple of times to Skydive Daytona (Palm Coast) a few times but it really does screw up your balance and is not comfortable for more than a few miles. I bungee'd it to stop any unexpected deployments.
