  1. I definitely prefer natural but for different reason whether kids, time, previous weight or lack of support over an extended period, some old tires just have to have an innertube installed to reinflate. And I definitely prefer saline 1000% over silicone.
  2. From what I've heard most factory guys are using the HMA in comps. The new JVX comes with 2 sets of HMA standard but will use Vectran if you prefer.
  3. I'll second the Xaos but he's asking about a 9 cell! JP Xfire2 or Katana I say Xfire 2
  4. Kudos my friend and congrats for some sick shit J.T.!
  5. There ya go Rebecca - Fixed it for ya. No couldn't be Dink because I think she still jumps right? And out of left field, Conway with the BURN!!! Ouch! booger. So it's time for a refresher jump! Do you still have your gear?
  6. "That would be in the BUTT Bob!" Quote from a black lady answering the same question on the "Newlywed Game" years ago!

    Why?

    Hey Josh, I resemble that remark! signed Jim Bowie!

    Why?

    Dose that mean that men are all supposed to "dress left" and pull out with the right no matter which "handed" we are?
  9. I was talking to a friend last night who's mother's house in FL still has plastic sheeting on the roof because insurance hasn't come through yet. I know this is trivial in comparison to loss of life and homes/businesses/lively hoods.

    Why?

    The above answers are correct, but it's also attributed to fact that the hilt of your sword won't get caught up on your shirt buttons during the draw if you button your shirt like a man. This was assuming right handed? So if you're left handed you would want to buy womens?
  11. Why do we donate $ hand over fist when there is a catastrophy somewhere outside of the US and do diddly when it happens on our own soil such as the hurricane disasters to Florida and the east coast last year? Is it because we just expect that everyone in the US has insurance and should be responsible for their own? We don't organize the same efforts for our own citizens? We feel that we are rich and the rest of the world can't take care of itself? This isn't pointing fingers or making a statement just asking a question that came up at the pub. Not to belittle the effort which I contributed to in Thailand. Just curious.

  13. Shari, FYI, noone that I have paid for or 1/2 paid for has continued in the sport. If they really want it, they will find a way to afford it.
  14. Well you got a lot of responses but Goldschloger is the answer!
  15. :3:0 3 very challenging Jack Berke organised 6 ways. Seemed like all bonus considering the weather we were supposed to have had. Nice to get back up after weather the previous weekend.
  16. 1 year and 270 someodd jumps and I was turned down down at the Balunar demo 20 ways because of a reputation I got from screwing up a jump some 200 back. The next year I was on the Texas State Record 120 ways approved by the same 2 organisers that had turned me down on the 20ways! Keep your head up and your mouth shut unless you're asking questions. Accept responsibility if you screw up and let the people know that you learned from it. Ask the organisers questions about how to improve things. Hang out after jumping and listen to the stories. Be one of them and hold your head high. It just takes time. We all have been there done that. Think about the future before your mouth condems it. There was a lot that I wanted to put in print after my rejection early on. Thank goodness better judgment kept me from saying what my heart wanted to say. Attitude,Attitude,Attitude,Attitude!!!
  17. Xaos 27-79 Sweet but a ton of fabric. Packs as big as my old Xfire 99! Xaos 21-88 in my second rig
  18. At Perris 2 yrs ago for the POPs record we had to mak up a fake log book page. Last year at the 100+ sequential invitasional I had manifest from Spaceland to print the last page of my account and when I tried to show manifest at Perris they were like what's that for? Go figure. I haven't logged in a book since around 700.
  19. I think there would be a much closer split at 450
