    Thanks guys! Yeah 270 + 81 BASE jumps! everything from terminal E's to go and throw B's as well as balloon jumps and a couple of ultra-lite loads! I was trying to hit 365 parachute jumps for the 1st year but, fell a little short at 351. Sooo close! What I haven't done is gotten myself out to a boogie! So, next on the list is MOAB! See you in the Skies!! SirVato If your gonna be dumb ya gotta be tough. Your mom goes HandHeld

    Just celebrated my 1yr anniversary of skydiving yesterday!! (havn't gone in or femured yet a-holes) I want to thank all the peeps from Mile Hi Skydiving and Colorado Skysports for making this one of the most memorable and fun years of my life! I don't think I've met a person I don't like or made a jump I didn't enjoy and, I can't believe how many great friends I've made along the way! Too many to name so . . .Thank you ALL!!

    Hellz yeah Avery! I'm thinking about selling the Phantom2 for an upgrade but, it's really a toss between the G2 and V3. Obviously I'll be spending more time out of airplanes with it. But at the same time it MUST be able to perform well in a BASE environment. p.s. thanks for the shirt when I saw you guys at Twin! I still have some quality "Chuck McFly" footage too!!

    Family's cool with it. Granny, Pops, ex-GF, Uncle and his wife all did a tandem last fall!! LOVED it!! Granny is NOT the biggest fan of me BASE jumping though. I love her and understand how much she cares. . .She also HATES me rock climbing just as much but has been dealing with that for the last 15years. . . Some friends meh. . .they just don't get it. . . and others who have no business in my business get this. . . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNeUlZljTLk&feature=channel_page If your gonna be dumb ya gotta be tough.

    FYI your canopy knows nothing about vertical or horizontal speeds. The relative wind matters... Well, correct me if I'm wrong (I usually am)BUT, wouldn't the relative wind be different between a track/WS flight than a normal boxman body position?? If your gonna be dumb ya gotta be tough.

    I fly a sabre (1) and have yet to have a hard opening. . . I ALWAYS pitch in a full track and even in full flight when I wingsuit, never an issue. It seems that if you really are tracking/flying well, your vertical speed will be slower than in a typical boxman. Even more so in a wingsuit. This goes for BASE as well I've pitched in full flight for all (a whole whopping 6) of my WS base jumps and, honestly I prefer it. Maybe people are tracking more headlow than they realize and are getting whacked from the "increased" speed that could create. . . I dunno sh*& anyways, just my thoughts on the matter

    Agreed. It's not exactly a "physical sport" I've gained 15lbs since starting and to be honest - Packing is more work than jumping! Just keep curling those and increasing the WL and you'll be fine If your gonna be dumb ya gotta be tough. Your mom goes HandHeld
