Sorry to have to say this but IMHO that's one of the biggest loads of rubbish I've ever read..... Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

Hey Ivan How did you enjoy the Weston summer ball? Couldn't remember much past about 9:30 myself but must have been a good night as I felt really bad the next day!!!! Nick (was on the 4-way with you on Sunday)

I'm planning to be there (as I am pretty much every weekend) from Friday afternoon to Monday. Parties there are always a laugh. Just hope the weather sorts it self out. Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

There's meant to be another stunt with a landing on the back of a Land Rover in Africa, the stunt was performed by a friend Amanda, she's not sure if it's going to be shown in the movie but she did get to spend 3 weeks on safari!!!! Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

British Airway and Columbus Direct both Suck!

Shit, thats bad news. If your going to Empuria it might be worth trying Ryanair, when we went last eptember they let us take rigs on as hand luggage (this may have changed now but it's worth a thought). Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW! -
I don't have a towel with me but I have been trying to throw myself at the ground and miss. Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

Tas Welcom to DZ.com, and to the sport. I jump down at Weston pretty much every weekend so will probably see you there, social life down there is pretty good if Tomo or Scouse will let you leave the bar.... Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

Good for you and good luck for AFF. I'm in the UK and jump down at Weston-on-the-Green (nr Oxford) Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

Yeah it is a good jump plane and the performance was pretty good but I don't know about the costs. I'm sure that if you contact Hib direct they'll help there http://www.bpa.org.uk/dropzone/dztargetskysports.htm Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

The Turbo Finest SMG (smeg) is in use all the time at Hibaldstow in the UK but we've had it quite a few times down at Weston. Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

Could have been as I hadn't jumped for a couple of months that I noticed it so much. What was worse was coming back to the UK, so much more flare i almost took myself back up!!! Just glad it was all back to normal this weekend. Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

I went from jumping at my home DZ (Weston-on-the-Green) at about 500ft ASL to Eloy which I think is at about 1500ft ASL, the changes in air density due to altitude and weather made a huge difference to me. I was very glad that people had warned me about it, came in a lot faster and the flare wasn't as effective as I was used to. Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

Personnaly when I use packers I will always set the brakes and cock the pilotchute myself, and I'll always check my gear immediatly after packing and the normal gear check (in the UK remember) on the flight line. Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

I am, but then I've just been made redundant (horay) so I don't really care, only problem is that I have to stay until the end of March but the weathers crap here so I'm not missing any jumping.... Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

Have tried the Oxygn and that was too tight, not tried a Havoc will try and get hold of one. Didn't want to get presription goggles or new glasses to save money and have had contacts come out using goggles and am worried this would happen with a full face. Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!
-
I'd like to be able to wear glasses under a full face helmet but have tried some and the lens were touching my glasses, has anybody else managed to get a good fit. Cheers Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

I flew back from Pheonix with BA a couple of weeks ago and when they asked me to unlock my case I mentioned that there was a rig inside just so it wouldn't surprise them, the person on check in said it wouldn't be a problem as since the 300-way they had so many rigs through they were used to it. Picked my case from the baggage reclaim at Heathrow and it haddn't been opened. No problems at all. The only issue I do see is if they start getting really tight and stop allowing rigs with AADs what are the other options? Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!

What did you do for your 100th jump?
Nick replied to Milney's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Just managed my 100th on Sunday, a 3 way from a DC3, damn fast exit but managed to get it together my 7,000ft. Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW! -

Andybody going to be at Eloy this weekend, am going out to pick up some kit and it would be good if I could meet some other DZ.commers. Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!
