  2. how is going into deep breaks going to kill one? care to elaborate instead of attacking? what is your method to shorten the glide on final with a lightly loaded canopy? you've got a lava fields in front of you, if you just go full flight you'll land in a lava 100%, what do you do on light wind condition, heavy wind condition? S-turn isn't allowed. i admit most of the time I give out horrible advices, i figure if you are asking to a random skydivers with god knows what their skill sets are, I'll give out some random ass answer, however i really thought this one through and i consider this was legit advice that I rarely give out.

  3. i saw some Europeans do that, mayo on french fries..... i don't put anything on my fries, besides salt and pepper. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  4. Where is the mayo option? if i wanna go plain-ish, i put mustard, mayo, ketchup. if i wanna go fancy, i put all of the above plus chili, cheese and onion + hint of Tabasco. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  5. what happens to the two protester who took down the flag couple weeks ago? Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  6. I've learned the most when I lost my altimeter and couldn't afford/didn't want to buy one for a while. Did 500 jumps without it, until I had to have one for the AFFI course. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  7. one says no ketchup, and the other says no mayo….. wtf do you guys put on top of it? the middle part that gets mixture of ketchup and mayo is the real deal,the bomb, shit,whatever you wanna call it,,i get to eat three different flavored hotdog using one bun and one link. it is a science..

  8. prior marijuana usage and accidents has no correlation. Denver and Seattle did not see a spike in car accidents. Tons of people smoke weed everyday and jump. who is the Chairman of the Safety and Training that caused the accident? Jay Stokes? what did he do? i never thought that he would swoop his Specter 150 into a crowd…. shame. I called him out on his s turns on final, was that the reason? he must be getting old.

  9. is chris shortened name for christina? i like girls that are between 125-135. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  10. Suds went to Thailand again? I've repeatedly told him that the ladyboys aren't good for his dick health. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  11. that depends on the wind condition and the type of wing you fly. docile wing, heavy head wind, to shorten you can apply deep breaks, if you have to lengthen, you are fucked. docile wing, light head wind, to shorten you can apply super deep breaks or fronts(applying fronts will lengthen your swoop phase), to lengthen use rears or light breaks. would not recommend deep breaks in a turbulent condition.

  12. seriously, almost doesn't count. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  13. if you have been flying KA 97 for the last 5 years, go for velo 79/74, otherwise it will be a waste of time, and don't go KA 89, that be even worse decision. It is all just a number(size of the canopy) after certain point. If someone else packs in velo 79 in your container and never tell you about it and if you never look up, you'll think that you have much bigger canopy than a 79. get a comp velo if you can, they have higher snatch vs regular velo and slightly shorter snivel. Velos do fly much better, it feels more on rail/track/solid, whatever you wanna call it, however you can't beat the openings on Ka. I've used my Katana as a camera/demo/big way wing. I'm a huge fan of Katana, I've went through 3 of them. My least favorite was FX, opened like a sabre1 and flew like a brick. Jfx flew very similar to FX, but had super awesome opening. Vx and Jvx is fun if you get a one doesn't have a tail flutter, both openings are kinda questionable, some days good, otherwise horrible. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  14. steamed buns if you boil the hotdogs. toasted buns if you grill the hotdogs. one solid line of mustard, half line of ketchup, half line of mayo. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  15. The Katana is a machine. IMO the key piece is you can start jumping it in the larger sizes and lighter wingloadings and learn the way modern swooping canopies dive/recover. (biggest velo is a 120). The Katana doesn't tend to porpoise out of a dive like a XF2 will at some wing loadings. IMO, if you learn to fly and swoop a Katana well, you are very well positioned to then move to a Velo. Then you can choose to start pushing the wingloadings. For what it is worth- there is a guy at my DZ who jumps a Katana that outswoops most xbraced pilots. and Katana has much more rear power vs X-fires, and the fronts are much more manageable with Katana. Openings are subjective, I like how Katana opening vs x-fire. Only difference it initial snatch, Katana has more, which lets me know that it came out of the bag, X-fire doesn't give you that, it just snivels. Katana is the best non-xbraced canopy out there.

  16. everyone that i know uses dual gopros. save your neck, full still camera/vid setup isn't worth it. contour video quality sucks tho. do they still make them? Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  17. Suds still jumps? when was the last time you jumped at snore? I think we are talking about the same person who complained to the child molester and got us stop saying it. Except that she didn't have a neck tattoo, but she did wear a red goggle. Truly sad thing is that the Jewbag never died. My hopes really went up when he started base jumping, in fact none of us died, and that sucks. good times. "hope you die mother fucker!!" and I used to reply, "hope you take me out bitch!!" Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  18. I mean you are too late to have a video now.. No one wants to have a gopro over their head once they hit 1000 jumps, unless they are getting paid. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  19. WTF is a "high performance" track? Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  20. We need more of them. More HD, More slow mo. I suggest front and back facing cam mandatory for those who have less than 100 jumps. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  21. He didn't have gopro stuck to his head? who taught this guy how to skydive? One solid push, wait for the epic double beeps, another solid push starts the camera. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  22. 10 year and 1400 jumps and no POV video? that's kinda sad, and that is not that many jumps either. i think people should have gopro on as soon as they get their a license. it provides the best chance of capturing carnage video and other OMGs. Have them put on as soon as possible so that none of them will want to have GoPro over their head once they hit 200. let them film their barrel rolls, flips, and 5 min canopy ride under something 190s, I'm all about it. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  23. about 100 hours. can't believe no one told the guy the truth. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  24. tandem student filming themselves is a horrible idea. you can always tell them that you are not allowed to bring your own beer to a bar, or bring your own food to a restaurant. btw, I've let about 10 passengers to take their own handycam, I absolutely loved it at first. First of all they all paid for the Ti handycam option so I got paid extra for not doing shit, but after one dude who initiated front flips out the door while waving his camera everywhere, that is when I drew the line. Not doing it anymore. If you have 200 lbs dude who wants to continue doing front flips, you are gonna continue on with the front flips. Most of passengers who took their own gopro didn't even point the gopro in the right direction. Nice under canopy tho, passengers can take video of their own flight, and you never hear take picture of this or that.. as far as A-licensed people having a gopro on their head, I say go for it. Kids now days can write complete essays on their phone while driving, and texting to several people at same time. I don't see how gopro can be distracting when acting as a logbook/flight data recorder. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
  25. couple of us used to say "hope you die mother fucker" all the time, until someone in the airplane got offended. Bernie Sanders for President 2016
