I did a 4-way for my graduation jump right b4 I got my A license (25th jump) =) granted it was with people with LOTS of jumps.... but still I don't think having under 100 jumps rules you out of 4-ways as long as ya'll are safe "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

I loveeeee my Mac (Powerbook). It's amazing.

I can see why ya'll would be angry over that. Unfortunately there are people like that in this world =/ "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

What exactly is Skyride? Sorry if this is explained somewhere "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

I like it - it sticks out as being different. Eye catching. But that's just my opinion =P "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

Never thought about it since I've never really grasped the whole PLF thing - it's always just been a save-your-ass-from-breaking-something idea, but the sideslide does sound more practical. I'll let you know next time. "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

Stupid door opening.... "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

Hah hell yea we'll jump together if you're ever down here. I don't know if there is a Flying Tigers in Pennsylvania, but the one I jump at is in Clemson, SC (Clemson University = Tigers) =) "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

I completely agree with that "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

I know EXACTLY what you mean - anyone who doesn't jump is amazed that I've even jumped once, but then you get with other skydivers who have thousands and you're sitting there being like yea... I've got 20. lol "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

Yea I can see how that would be about right, but there are people I've met with over 100 jumps that I wouldn't jump with. P.S. I like your signature thing "Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. " That def. got a laugh from me "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

Great, I only have 52 to go. haha "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

Just a thought, but how many logged jumps does it take for an experianced skydiver to considered another jumper good enough to jump with. Obviously it's not the number of jumps, but how well the person does in the air, but purely looking at numbers....? =) "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

Haha you're right my bad, I can't complain about any of the gear cause I haven't looked into buying anything =) "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

I know you've already gotten accounts of S/L progession, but I thought I'd throw in my 2 cents... For me: The first 2 jumps were simply jumping out and waiting for the S/L to kick in (i.e. have the plane pull my canopy out) -There are a few reason why I liked this method. I was already super nervous about jumping so it was nice to know that I didn't have to worry about pulling the ripcord. I had line twists the first couple of times I jumped but it was not a problem at all - just twisted in my harness until I untwisted. The next 3 jumpes were Practice Rip Cord Pulls (PRCP's) which were basically the same as the first two jumps, but I pulled the "dummy" rip cord. My first freefall was on the same day that I did my last PRCP (jump #6) and went fine. No line twists etc. My first freefall was essentially a hop & pop from around 4000 After that my freefall time got progressivly longer. I had some issue keeping my heading, so my instructor started jumping with me around that time (jump # 18?) to help me out I am now on jump #21 from 10,500 (highest my dropzone goes) and doing fine w. the progession. I only have 4 more jumps until I get my A liscense (if I do everything right) Overall, I don't know much about AFF jumping so I can't compair but I really liked S/L progession and felt that it helped me not be so stressed out in the process. =) Hope this helped!

Come on tell us what really is going to happen, dont beat around the bush You just know they're going to be bumping uglies until the wee hours. About the time he makes her "See God" for the 9th time, unties her and gives her a custard facial, she's gonna wonder why she wasted time with ANYONE else! did girl completly fuck you up a while ago? "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

I had to do that once. I said i was wearing one thing and wore something else. Turns out she was better than i thought...so i told her that i tripped and fell into a puddle so i had to go home and change...she thought it was cute...she was none the wiser...lol Tripped and fell into a puddle...? And she didn't catch that??? haha "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

thats so messed up! lol the world would be so upsetting if noone had selfesteem "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

Lol I saw a clip of a video from that jump I think - it was 1/2 taped over from one of my friends video's "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

Is the slider able to support weight like that? I'd love to see a video of this... =) "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

No - it would be pointless & I don't want to look seem like someone who's done lots of jumps and still sucks "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

Thats good that you can remember your jump so well. Congrats on doing it - I know what you mean about wanting not to do it but knowing you'll beat yourself up about not jumping later =) Blue Skies "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

so yea... im jealous. I never thought I'd detest the holidays.... but I do now since I can't jump =( "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-

How did you manage getting on top of the slider? "Living like fallen angels who lost their halos" - Unknown Prophets -Love Life-
