How do you know??? I don't seem to remember you... bsbd! Yuri.

Looks nice! The wings seem to be an exact copy of Vampire? That by itself is a poor indicator: even Classic or Prodigy will fly back to the Cafe Fast assembly is a nice touch! bsbd! Yuri.

Yes, among other reasons. bsbd Yuri.

Huh? I don't recall anything THAT long, even though some of the gear of my first couple of years was rather interesting

Uh, you may want to adjust this a bit: in american time units it will be 3+ hours and you hike all you altitude bsbd! Yuri.

Yes. PM me when he's back! bsbd! Yuri.

No. That was Impy 240 (a copy of Mojo 240 by PISA). bsbd! Yuri.

Trae, You get a grand prize for making a fool of yourself. Was alcohol involved? bsbd! Yuri.

What she said! bsbd! Yuri, TDI ER

Yo ! WTF do you use "packing tabs" for? Will you ask about "clamps" next??? bsbd! Yuri.

Yo! This poll needs a bit of editing. I cannot meaningfully vote as it is Got to talk to security&cops for the first time on a jump #1105. We just opened a nice 320m smokestack, had a bit of a car chase and were getting away just fine when my friend's car flew off the road. We elected to stop and help out, which resulted in long negotiations with a chief of security operations. In the end we went home clean, while a lot of security folks lost their job or anal virginity. Not sure if this was a bust - cops specifically emphasized that we were not arrested. Unfortunately, most of my jumps are illegal. bsbd! Yuri.

Jump it! It will open just like a fresh pack job. There has been plenty of research on this subject: pack jobs jumped after many years in storage with no measurable difference in opening characteristics. I have personally jumped a BASE rig that was sitting in a closet packed for one and half years. Now a thought of repacking a skydiving rig wouldn't cross my mind even in the worst nightmare. I hate packing! bsbd! Yuri.

Yo ! Last Bridge Day was the first one where i didn't jump (new ACL) and it was more fun than all the others! BD is all about the party bsbd! Yuri.

Yo !

Yuri.

Yo! Bragging about Latino chicks in South America is like bragging about taking a piss. It is only important when you have trouble doing it bsbd! Yuri.

Yes. How did you know? bsbd! Yuri.

I was using demo rigs precisely because i was too drunk to pack bsbd! Yuri.

Depends on which home... Last weekend we got really drunk and opened a very high security smokestack. I would have never ever approached that one sober. A guard came out and pointed a gun at us. We just pushed him out of the way with a car. Again, a sober person would get busted right there. To be honest, we did crash the car a minute later... but the turn was really tight! But getting back to our subject: i feel that at Perrine, sliders just don't matter. I have jumped there with and without a slider, and had absolutely no idea which way rigs were packed. It made no difference at all. In fact i got so drunk by the afternoon that i had to switch to rounds. By the way thank you everybody for all those loaners... i've never jumped so many different rigs in one day! bsbd! Yuri.

Yes. bsbd! Yuri.

Speachless and sad. But i am so glad i got to hang out and jump with you. We'll meet again! bsbd! Yuri.

Sweet! Where's our favorite cone when we need him? bsbd! Yuri.

Yo! Before the rumours start, i'm alive and unhurt. Was 15m away from one of the bombs in Dahab. Full-on carnage... bsbd! Yuri.

Yo! First, what is a problem with 105 or 120 seconds? I can see how 180 could be a bit of a challenge for some bigger-boned people... but 90? Come on, you can track without a suit longer than that. Second, like Basjkall pointed out, this tracking derby is quite pointless. The winner is determined by the tailwind speed. If you want to compete out of a plane, it must be done on the same load. bsbd! Yuri.

1.5 years, slider-up 5sec delay, opened perfect. I did re-stow a pilot chute bsbd! Yuri.

To judge the opening direction. Those silly comps... bsbd! Yuri.
