grounded Posted October 25, 2005 Report Posted October 25, 2005 In march the old lady and I went to Puerto Vallerata , I forgot about these pictures I took. I had a damn good buzz going at the time. Quote
Hilarious Posted October 25, 2005 Report Posted October 25, 2005 (edited) I know what that is. Parasailin' I went just this summer off the island of Maui in Hawaii. Had a helluva time. The boat driver stopped and let us float down and made us think he was gonna dunk us. Just as we were about to hit the water, he took off and shot us back up into the air.

grounded Posted October 25, 2005 Author Report Posted October 25, 2005 (edited) Ha! our guy did'nt try to get us wet , but that sounds like it would have made it more interesting, oh wait, if the camera gets wet I'd be a little torqued!! Edited October 25, 2005 by grounded Quote
jeepman137 Posted October 25, 2005 Report Posted October 25, 2005 yup, i went at the end of july in myrtle beach... went twice, and it only cost me $5... the driver did the same thing to us, he started winching us in, and when we got to the point where there was only maybe 50-75 feet of rope left, he completely stopped, and our legs hit the water, and then he flew forward and we shot back up, then he winched us in the rest of the way, had a blast, first time ever doing that, and im glad i did...

Wallrat Posted October 25, 2005 Report Posted October 25, 2005 Personally I always thought it looked boring as shit. But then I'm used to launching up into the air using a kite. I have plenty of wet landings...mostly from the kite losing power and falling out of the sky while I'm 25 feet up. Nothing like a freefall right onto your ass from that height. Quote

Wallrat Posted October 26, 2005 Report Posted October 26, 2005 Yup Tx...that's it. What's your excuse man? Quote
Cotton eyed Joe Posted October 26, 2005 Report Posted October 26, 2005 Yup Tx...that's it. What's your excuse man? 429753[/snapback] Speaking of stuff.... Did you ever get those bionic kangaroo leg things going? I remember the post where you said you ordered them, but don't know if you ever took them on a maiden voyage. Quote
txblueshee Posted October 26, 2005 Report Posted October 26, 2005 Yup Tx...that's it. What's your excuse man? 429753[/snapback] I don't got one ... Mike Quote
bobbybonilla Posted October 26, 2005 Report Posted October 26, 2005 (edited) Those pics look photochopped, especially the foot in the second one, and wheres the rope and the boats stopped? But looks fun as hell, did you ever see any of the budlight girls in puerto vallarta? Edited October 26, 2005 by bobbybonilla Quote
grounded Posted October 26, 2005 Author Report Posted October 26, 2005 yeah the 2nd pic does look weird, i was just taking off and the boat was turning , i snapped a picture off 2 the side at that boat just for the hell of it Quote
Wallrat Posted October 26, 2005 Report Posted October 26, 2005 Yeah Stan, I got em going. They're pretty cool but hard as hell to really get comfortable on. Also they're tiring as shit. You can walk around in em for about 45 min but after that you start tripping over your feet. If you wanna try running or bouncing, don't plan on going more than 100 feet or so. I managed to run about 14 mph and jump roughly 3 feet high. I suppose if I used em daily I'd prolly get better but I got too many other things on my plate. Never did get the halloween satyr costume made for em... Quote
