  1. I'm coming down on the 30 and staying throught the 3rd. Anyone want to share room and car? I'm coming down to jump not party.. Chad 608-576-6444 shot me a text
  2. I'm looking to buy a wide angle lens for my rebel XTI, is this a good one. I can buy it for 440.00 on ebay. Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM Thanks for any help! Chad
  3. I just started videoing, I have a PC 1000 and now want a still camera. What is the best bag for the buck and best place to buy?Lens? Will be buying a digital camera!! Any info would be great. Chad
  4. I posted a wanted ad yestereday for a sabre 2 150 and a person that was selling a sabre 2 I had sent a message to prior to the wanted ad responded to my ad. She never got my message, so I think I must be doing something wrong. I'm opening there add and clicking on the respond to icon or what ever it is called, writing the message and sending it. What else is there??
  5. Thanks ANGGIEDAVE and MNSKYDIVER, I think I'll try and track down a 150Sabre 2!!
  6. Learn to pack, and learn to deploy at the correct airspeed. Do you people even read the questions! now JHEADLEY is telling me to learn how to pack and deploy. All I asked was the difference between 3 different canopies!!
  7. what about...LEARN HOW TO PACK!! it`s never to late....... Why does someone always have to make a STUPID comment like JOHAN420! Knowhere in any of my posts, does it imply that I don't or don't know how to pack!
  8. Over the past few months I have sent mess. though the classifieds in regaurds to main canopies generally posted less than 2 weeks prior. I want to down size to a 150 Sabre 2 or a 150 Stilleto. I have never gotten a reponse. Am I missing something? chad
  9. The Sabre 2 170 is great canopy for whiplash and for making U-turns in the sky! I've jump one loaded at 1.4 to 1 and I'm looking to get a Safire 2 or a Pilot at this point. I've had my fill of Sabre's and Sabre 2's. I'd have to agree with the openings. I almost broke my neck at a boogie when I hired a packer to pack it. I blacked out for a few seconds on opening.
  10. Lets focus on the question and not bash other DZ's. Lets all move pass the Chicago skydive comment!!
  11. What are the major characteristics from a Sabre 2 VS a Stilleto and a Silhouette? I want to down size from a 170 and am looking at a 150. I have a sabre 2 and love it. Thanks for the help Chad
  12. Is there a DZ in Nassau, Bahamas?
  13. I'd pass on the Sebastain boogie, I was there this weekend for the pink mafia boogie, 60 tandems on saturday and just as many fun jumpers with 1 Otter. close to a 2 hours wait to jump, was there all day and got 4 jumps in and the last ones landing was in the dark..
  14. I'm going to take the coach course in march and I need the coach course instructional manual, where can i get a used one? Chad
  15. Where is the closets DZ to Orlando that you can jump with a class B license and also jump higher than 10500? Planning a trip with the kids to Disney and would like to make some jumps as well. Thanks Chad

    I'm new to the sport and I just purchased my first rig. My Rigger told me to only buy a Cypress, but they are hard to come by. Is there any difference between the only 3 i know of, Argus, Virgil and Cypress?? Chad
