The Celeb quotes are pretty funny. "See, the problem is that God gives men a brain and a penis, and only enough blood to run one at a time!!!!!" Robin Williams Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeit!!! I have always thought this quote was funny... "Women may be able to fake an orgasm but men can fake whole relationships." Sharon Stone Or this one... "I will never get married again. I am just going to find a women I don't like and buy her a house." Rod Stewart "Women complain about premenstrual syndrome, but I think of it as the only time of the month that I can be myself." Roseanne And this is one of my personal favorites... "My mother never saw the irony of calling me a son-of-a-bitch." Jack Nicholson Blue Skies and Sandy Beaches Starz

We are living other jumpers lives and experiences through Drop Zone.Com IS THAT NOT AWESOME?????????? "There is no wrong, only learn" YOTA Thanks for sharing :) Blue Skies and Sandy Beaches Starz

Geeeeeeeezzzzzzzz...... After reading this entire post I am going to start using silicone on my hair and on my @%#$. Sounds like good stuff :)))))))) ps where can you purchase the Two Pier packing videos. I was not particularly fond of Pack Like a Pro. Blue Skies and Sandy Beaches Starz

Lindsay nailed it!!!! Do a flat/brake turn. This should keep you from becoming a Lawn Dart. Blue Skies and Sandy Beaches Starz

WOW!!!!!!!!!That's one I never heard of. Did you pull-in the bridle and PC or was the position sufficient enough to avoid the dreaded intanglement? Blue Skies and Sandy Beaches Starz

If you have a pilot-chute-in-tow should you try and pull it out or hook knife it before you go for the silver?? I know that reserve main intanglements are a bitch and can result in a not to favorable outcome. Your thoughts...... Blue Skies and Sandy Beaches Starz

You are still On-Line???? GO TO BED!!! Have a great time jumping tomorrow. Where do you jump. I am a S.F.V. boy. Graduated from Chatsworth High. Just curious if you do Elsinore or Perris. Starz Blue Skies and Sandy Beaches Starz

I do not believe anyone experiencing a mal is thinking about money. SO....... can we drop (no pun intended) that one? Michelle, I do not know the details of your spin.It sounds like you were stiff/not relaxed. A completely relaxed body in a relaxed/arched position should not spin, unless you were thrusted from a chop. Even then you would eventually fall stable, given you have the altitude to recover. I think one of the most unnatuaral things a human can do is relax in a emergency situation. It's a known fact that your vision can decrease, your dexterity (mental and physical) becomes limited in these scenarios. You pulled and lived to talk about it...GOOD JOB!!! My Sky-U coach always stressed breathing and relaxing. I remember the first time I flipped (oops)onto my back. There I was starring at the blue sky when I wanted to be looking at the farm land below. I was scared to death. I arched with my back to the relitive wind and (what seemed like an eternity)came back belly to earth in a matter of seconds. Have a great rest of the weekend :) Nerves of steel and stay relaxed Blue Skies and Sandy Beaches Starz

Goooooooooooooooood question. Have you received an answer? Starz Blue Skies and Sandy Beaches Starz

I was concerned about the lack of gear/anotomy training I received at my DZ. I didn't know the differance between a A line and a D line until I had over 85 jumps. There is so much to learn. The key is not to be critical but informed. Get Parachutst magazine, Skydive Magazine, read these Safety and Training Forums (They are great!!!)talk to experienced jumpers who have "been there done that". Devour evry bit of information you can get your hands on. It may save your life some day. Starz Blue Skies and Sandy Beaches DSF

Good point!!! If the line-over had not cleared on the fourth tug/hail mary, I would have said "Bye Bye" to my main. My immediate response after it cleared was "Thank God I don't have to chop" I then did my control check, control check, control check. I was just under 2000 AGL and flying great. I had no idea how badly my legs were shaking until I stood up on them. Thanks Spectre230 and everyone else for all your input. This is a awesome Forum for sharing leg shakers.

One of the most profound statements I remember from my initial training was....... "Your gear will not fail you, you will fail you". Nerves of steel are essential. Stick to your training no matter what....unstable/back to earth/spinning whatever. If you feel you cannot execute what your coaches have taught you.......stay out of the air. DSF
