    At the risk of hijacking this into a 'the multifarious joys of tall women' thread, I gotta agree with you, Slug. Rowr. ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E. Lawrence

    Got slammed last year by my Spectre 210; fractured two vertebrae and bruised a lung. I didn't pack it, but you have to work pretty hard to make a Spectre open like that, from what I understand, so I'm inclined to think it was body position. It made me be *real* sure I'm flat, symmetrical and done tracking before I pull... ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E. Lawrence

    I think the obvious solution here is to give the candy to Douva so his skinny ass can keep up with Josh and me... ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E. Lawrence

    Infinity, infinity, infinity. I have friends with Icons, and they have their good points. That said, Infinity. Sweet, tight rig. ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E. Lawrence

    Mark, I think Anatole France said it best: "Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened." I only had the pleasure of meeting Maxx twice, but he made a big friendly impression; he will be missed. You did the hardest, but the most loving thing possible. I hope the Sneak is standing by with some comfort; the rest of us certainly are. blue skies, Maxx. W ------------------------------ Of course it hurts.

    My kitty Cleo, who a) wanted to go to the Gran Canaria boogie really badly (she got in there like that herself and wouldn't get out!) and b) needs to have her hair held back after a long night of partying. blues W ------------------------------ Of course it hurts.

    Get unstuck: gotta put a vote in for the Infinity. Sweet, relatively inexpensive, well-made rig. You won't look back. ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E. Lawrence

    Oh my God, Douva signed your LOGBOOK? Can I touch it? Can i touch you? I'm sure there's a line. ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E. Lawrence

    Good God, did someone actually write an article that characterizes us as something other than insane, suicidal adrenaline addicts? Someone give me a call when Douva's head has returned to normal size and I'll come out and jump. ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E.

    Well, the Jungians say that the elements and characters in your dreams are all parts of yourself. So the question is, what part of you do you want to stick into...um...you? ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E. Lawrence

    "(i've never heard it from a female)" Joshezammit and I were discussing this on Saturday. The *guy* tandems seem to one of three varieties: A) quiet/nervous/trying not to show it, B) honestly enjoying themselves, or C) DUDE I'M SUCH A BADASS!!!! (C being the most enjoyable to be on a load with, simply to watch them turn into A in the door) ... and the *vast* majority of girl tandems I've seen seem to be the B variety. Intriguing. No complaints here. blues w ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E. Lawrence

    You're on, meatbomb. Me first. Yes, I said 'first' on DZ.com. I'll gladly buy you your crappy American beer, Zammit. Let's go. ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E. Lawrence

    Howabout 'D: Display multiple lacerations from Douva's interminable futzing around w/board prior to exit" ? As soon as I get my rig back, Douva, you exit, get directly under me and hang out, and I'll get my LAST number, all right. ;) ------------------------------ Of course it hurts.

    That's just it -- I'm a big guy, and they were a godsend in terms of letting me keep fallrate with all the skinny dudes at my home DZ... but you have a point. I stupidly washed my suit on 'hot' about a month ago and as a result my 'wings' have largely gone away; I've found out that I was indeed using 'em as a crutch, and some coaching would be helpful. blues W ------------------------------ Of course it hurts.

    I can't *believe* you would ever say anything so coarse. And in front of God, too. My my. Jesus won't want you for a sunbeam, you keep that up. She thought you were all very nice. Console yourselves. ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E. Lawrence

    What can I say, Kevin. The ladies can't resist a man whose rig doesn't have them gaudy Infinity logos plastered all over it... ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E. Lawrence

    She'll be back out, senor. Not to jump -- ear issues -- but got addicted to Heath doing loop-de-loops and hammerhead stalls this weekend. Just you wait. Zammit can vouch for my taste in the meantime. ------------------------------ Of course it hurts. The trick is not *minding* that it hurts. - T.E. Lawrence

    No. It's big and slick and while it would probably be good practice, the twice I've jumped my own packjob I've had... um... *intriguing* openings at best. I'm waiting for the masters to wear it down a little... and for my practice packing to get prettier and take less than two hours. ------------------------------ Of course it hurts.
