Why use alcohol to forget a girl? Just get another girl. Even better ... get another girl, share the tequil, and benefit from the results.
cause im socially awkward, I don't chase girls, and its easier to drink to forget?
since someone bumped it...
tonight I have a 750 of tequila with my name on it that ill drink as much as I can in a vein effort to forget a girl
what I don't finish will be finished as soon as I wake up tomorrow on the beach
i'll give another +1 for my sabre150, constant on heading openings in 400 to 500 feet everytime so far (only 20ish jumps on it atm)
i'm with the old school people i guess, those thousand foot streamers are too much when everyone i jump with breaks at 4 and dumps at 3 grand i want my life saved sooner than later
michael franti - life in the city and nobody right nobody wrong
john mayer - gravity
those are the 3 that are owning me atm
as far as reviewing dives and gear checks, you can only do them so many times. i wasnt to bad on spacing out on the otter but now that its all cessnas for the winter i tend to really space out
not sure what jump I did my first self induced line twists but uut was the 15ish jump range. did it on a pilot 210, I only weigh 140. I got 2 or 3 revolutions before I was able to start to reverse it
made me respect toggle pressure and not to slam toggles around. I also fly conservativly below the hard deck of 2k after that
I started jumping on July 4th, I'd have to look at my log book to see when i finished but I got to jump 56 by the middle of october when the dz closed.
I jumped my first pack job my first jump after aff. started packing part-time for my dropzone somewhere during that time. I have a full-time work there next year. I got laid off in october from my job. I lucked out and found winter packing work that's somewhere warm even though it will BARELY pay bills (mmm ramen and tuna for the winter).
I guess I jumped in feet first you could say.
God I love this sport.
Riding with no helmet is freedom to me.
I have a windshield and the air stream is enough that if I do catch a bug its basically my hair line. I've ridden without the windshield for a time but anything over city speeds are too much for me. I like the wind break. Never had a bike with a fairing though, takes to much of the feel for riding out.
Hell most times I don't even wear glasses, not that its smart but I can't keep track of a pair for more than a month.
That said I rode with a helmet more this summer due to my long hair than I have since I was 15/16/17 when I was required by the law to wear one. I was amazed what wind will do to long hair even on a short ride.
Bugs aren't so bad. It's the rain at 80mph that hurts.
I think I've got ya beat.
I'm 6'4 and 135lbs
The I have 12 jumps now and have been wearing 12lbs weight since AFF jump 3. On AFF jump 2 where you did the turn my instructors were literally pulling me down as I did my turn.
I had one instructor on jump 6 or something wear his camera man wing suit
Apperently I fall real slow
