hang on fellas im not australian im from london (essex) i just live here...i was just saying and beside's ive skydiving so not been on here for a while

pommie

Must have been one heck of a jump matey

Only joking fella, the excesive ribbing is because everyone on cyberland has been been eagerly anticipating the new Super T for quite some time now. Trouble is the end result was not all that, as you have probably seen now............

That's obvious, but it is a great opportunity for a ribbing. No one meant any offence.
Anyway, skydiving is for wussies, static line is where the real pain is. (besides I'm sh1t scared if heights and 30 seconds was so much easier to endure than 2 minutes and in the dark you can't see the ground any way - landings were less painful though)

It depends what you wanted in the first place.....

This bike looks just perfect for me....can't wait till my blue one turns up....its just the price.....ouch!

Didn't phrase that properly, it's all down to personal preference of course. I'm sure it would tick many of my box's, however, it's the looks that have been a let down for me. Look forward to hearing your review of the bike. I wont be able to try/buy one for a loooong time considering prices over here. (A new XTZ costs just under �8000)

Cant beat the rush of a 300m static-line jump at night

[quote=nobby;125537] 300m - can't beat that. 600m is my lowest.

I tried the 14000 ft thing in Florida but after 3 solos I was told by my instructor that I would never make a skydiver while I had a hole in my ass. Silverback gorilla was mentioned !
God was I relieved !
I was talked into it by a fellow ex trooper.
