Went Skydiving today... 14,000ft @ Nagambie (on the was to Shepp)

Wasn't too bad - nowhere near the rush i was expecting... So thinking about doing the solo course soonish.

ANYWAY, anyone interested in going up in the next couple of months??? Could organise a few of us to head up on a Sat etc etc.

I'll probably go another tandem again just to get a better feel for it now i know whats going on etc etc.

Overall it was great fun, such a weird sensation... :down:

Trust me when you see other parachuting down while your waiting it really makes you want to go. And seeing that no one plowed into the ground it also a plus lol. Mind you 14000 ft is above the clouds so you fall through them :D when you out there and already start falling any fear you have dissapears. It I'd an awesome sensation even though it really hurts your cheeks lol

We went for my birthday last month at Mission Beach north of Townsville QLD. Ment to be the best jump site in Aus because you can see the entire reef and coastline.

Ash if it wasn't the rush you were expecting you must have balls of steel! I thought it was insane!

I did the mission beach jump too, 14,000ft. Did it on a clear day so could see the whole ocean and beach. Was awesome.

The day before I jumped i was watching others skydive. One of the jumpers parachute didnt deploy and roman candled. He had to deploy the 2nd parachute which is much smaller and they both landed with a thud on the beach haha

Didnt stop me from going on my jump the next day haha

Ye my best mate did a jump from there or maybe Rainbow... somewhere up that north way... view was tops.

Seriously not the rush i was expecting at all. In the plane on the way up i wasn't even getting jittery about it all which was strange lol.

I was like "oh f**k" for about the first 2 seconds as we were spinning around but after that it was all sweet :)

      R33 GTR N1 REO on an r32 ?

      By Duncan · Posted

      I don't know....but I can't see how they would be. Different shape chassis and bumper means it is unlikely the reo is interchangeable. Doesn't mean it would be impossible to modify it to fit of course

      They're supposed to not be compatible.

      By 32pwwr · Posted

      Evening fam, Pretty much what the title asks, I have looked all over and can’t find a proper answer expect one post from almost a decade ago which is vague. ive seen photos and they look pretty much identical, would an r33 GTR N1 reo work on an r32? reason I ask is they are cheaper to buy… $700 compared to 1k+ for an r32 n1 reo

      Couldn't help myself, had to start putting it together.... It really is a solid bit of kit.  Probably stronger than i would have made it myself to be fair! 🤣🤣 Sweating like a pig after that.  Bloody hot and muggy day today, time for a swim now!

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      Yeah was thinking that. I've had the car go lower idle possibly around 650rpm every once in a long time after pouring fuel and would sound quite rough like a misfire, almost like it's shit fuel or something but who knows.
