Each to gets own, but sod that! I’d probably fall asleep all wrapped up in that sleeping bag anyway lol
Powerlifting, photography and science research. I did a skydive in Thailand a few years ago, one of the best things I ever experienced, but in the UK it seems I'm too heavy, otherwise I'd probably do it semi frequently. My true passion was submission grappling, but I had to stop that quite a few years ago due to biceps tendonitis, and thinking I knew better than my body and could just 'work through it' One of my photos as the stills photographer from the Giants Live event in Leeds 2015 as Eddie Halls approaches the bar to beak the all time Deadlift World Record with 463kg Then me being stupid, messing about pulling one handed deadlifts with 180kg after a younger gym member encouraged me, (one day I may learn) Last is a 300kg deadlift on Christmas day 2017
Now that's way up there! Good stuff. What's the go with UK skydiving regs? Is there a formula used such as participant's weight measured against canopy dimensions etc which obviously affects the rate of descent?
Lots of guitar players then, i once bought a guitar and had visions of becoming the next angus young, it has to be one of the most frustrating things i have ever decided to have a go at, the guitar now site in my man cave sat on its stand looking pretty and gathering dust
Yes, very frustrating. If it makes you feel any better, I'll rate myself as an 'alleged' guitar player.
It all depends on the centre you go to really and whatever weight limit theyre TI is comfortable with jumping, i started with a tandem about 2 years ago and weighed about 14 1/2 stone, but it was that good i decided to go for my licenece to enable me to jump solo, now i'm 75 solo jumps further on with a B licence, also with a solo skydive your weight limit can be a maximum of 16 stone i believe.
I must have bought the same guitar as you. Mines sat there next to a Yamaha keyboard I bought at Christmas which I dont play at present.
