RE: 31 dead in VA tech shooting
Bwahahahaha ... yep, that's a newb for ya .. seen enough pass out and more puke both in freefall as well as under canopy .. always good for a laugh or two!
And I too for the record have decided to put a stop to the risky hobbies ... lost too many close friends to me over the years and the last 2 that went sort of put things in perspective ... So if anyone is interested in a skydiving rig, by all means, PM ME LOL!

Uh huh .. blame shorty Den .. very smoooooooothe! LOL!
Smaller chute with more weight under it comes down faster and moves forward a whole hell of a lot faster. When I initially bought the canopy I have nowI was approx 20 lbs lighter than I am now ... I ended up wearing weights around my waste to increase the loading of the canopy to get the speed I was after ..
They estimated my impact speed at approx 35-40 mph when I ended up in the ICU back in -02 I think it was ... I haven't exactly gotten any slower on those landings over the years ... if that tells you anything :-) And yes, I've had puddin' during that time too ... smartazz!!!! LOL!
