would it be better to check your canopy before loosening your chest strap in case you need to cut away? "be honest with yourself. Why do I want to go smaller? It is not going to make my penis longer." ~Brian Germain, on downsizing

I need Some good Questions to ask!!

I think th best trolls are the ones who start an argument about someone else being a troll or not. "be honest with yourself. Why do I want to go smaller? It is not going to make my penis longer." ~Brian Germain, on downsizing -
This got me thinking. Is the canopy supporting the full suspended weight because it is descending or is the actual loading varied depending on the rate of decent? Wouldn't the wing loading increase when you flare? "be honest with yourself. Why do I want to go smaller? It is not going to make my penis longer." ~Brian Germain, on downsizing

Only if your wing loading was 1:1 to begin with "be honest with yourself. Why do I want to go smaller? It is not going to make my penis longer." ~Brian Germain, on downsizing

is that not closer to 2.5 percent? "be honest with yourself. Why do I want to go smaller? It is not going to make my penis longer." ~Brian Germain, on downsizing

winds in access of 300mph???

Wouldn't it all be the same? wouldn't the plane be going at the same speed relative to the air around it regardless of what that air is doing, and the same for a person in freefall. no???

What Made You Start Skydiving?
kevinwhelan replied to Kiakambala's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
The best story I ever heard of why someone started skydiving. When the Irish parachute clup was starting they put up posters around the place. One woman saw them and went home to her son. She said she had seen posters up around the place that there was a "Parish Youth Club" starting in the town and he should join it. He said he didn't tell her for years what they were realy doing "be honest with yourself. Why do I want to go smaller? It is not going to make my penis longer." ~Brian Germain, on downsizing -
I trained on static line and have never seen the static line attached to the canopy at all. We just have the line attached to the bag. What are the advantages of having it attached to the canopy? "be honest with yourself. Why do I want to go smaller? It is not going to make my penis longer." ~Brian Germain, on downsizing

I think it more depends on the dropzone and the people there than the method. On a big busy DZ it is easy for an AFF graduate to just jump on their own if they are a little shy to ask more experienced jumpers to jump with them. When I did static line it meant that I had to be observed for each stage of the progression, so my first 20 jumps or so were basiclly coach jumps at no charge. But at that DZ you were never charged for any instruction apart from the FJC "be honest with yourself. Why do I want to go smaller? It is not going to make my penis longer." ~Brian Germain, on downsizing

Has anyone been to this boogie, if so I would like to hear what you thought of it. Info at http://skydivesuriname.com/uk/dropzone.php thanks "be honest with yourself. Why do I want to go smaller? It is not going to make my penis longer." ~Brian Germain, on downsizing

Just wondering how this guys attitude was through his static line course, and if it raised any concerns with his instructors before this incident. "be honest with yourself. Why do I want to go smaller? It is not going to make my penis longer." ~Brian Germain, on downsizing

Don't know what the charity situation is in the states, but hear in Ireland well over 50 percent of tandem jumps are made to raise money for charity. A lot of charitys advertise on radio and tv asking people to do a jump for them and raise money. The jumper must raise at least twice the cost of the tandem. "be honest with yourself.

Info was sent from here in Ireland. The Contact that sent it only gave that info as part of a regular posting no info as to where or when "be honest with yourself. Why do I want to go smaller? It is not going to make my penis longer." ~Brian Germain, on downsizing
