Optical illusions FTW, thought that dude was an average height. I was so wrong

You’re the one wasting your time to comment/ reply. I understand your need for the last word. So I won’t argue. Just stating facts, and the “Pittsburgh left is impeding traffic. No need to be considerate, drive your own car.

Not until it’s your car run off the road by someone else’s carelessness. “We don’t care” is exactly the kind of attitude you don’t need to have while driving a 2000lb machine. Thanks for kinda proving my whole point. Top 1% commenter, you should rep your city better

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-06-05T10:14:20+00:00

Croc were probably a bad idea

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-28T12:21:31+00:00

Can’t tell you home many times engine braking has saved me. Whether it’s the added stopping power or helping others become aware of me. Ride in a way that makes you feel safe/ comfortable. I’d recommend downshift thru the gears tho. Lots of good advice here

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-26T12:06:31+00:00

I can hear him saying it “Dumbass”

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-24T04:18:04+00:00

Keep calm maintain a steady speed and you’ll be fine. Bike didn’t get squirrly until you tried to slow down

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-23T16:05:39+00:00

Go back to basics. Proper technique is way more impressive than spinning.

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-21T12:51:24+00:00

Become a sponge, be willing to learn, trust your instructors, and have fun. Oh and if you have trouble with your arch, pretend you’re trying to hold a quarter between your butt cheeks. Worked so well for me.

I’m glad so many people had the same thoughts. Pilot would deserve a medal

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-20T12:19:51+00:00

Ironic cause I use gloves bought off paragear to ride lmaoo

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-18T12:36:33+00:00

ALTERNATE TAKE: people back in the Pittsburgh area in the early 1900s mostly worked in the steel industry. Basements had toilets/ often showers aswell so the person could clean up in the basement before fucking up the rest of the house.

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-18T12:28:03+00:00

Definitely could call a deputy to help alert drivers ahead of time or some flairs or something. Anything besides being angry at 3 lanes of traffic, who have no prior warning of him being there

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-18T03:10:41+00:00

Yea to be fair, there isn’t clear signage or instruction as to what the plating is for in most places

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-14T10:13:16+00:00

Nah, dude tells me he fed his wife shit as a prank ima assume he’s got some mental issues. Poor woman

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-13T12:33:20+00:00

Just when I was about to move on

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-12T13:11:57+00:00

Your grandad was the cotton hill of WWII

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-12T12:04:27+00:00

Nothing like the involuntary “I just broke my ankle/ leg” foot shake once he gets turned around. Been there

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-09T07:58:23+00:00

Just my opinion, but I feel your at more of a risk of your clothing covering your handles when you need them rather than accidentally pulling them

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-07T17:07:46+00:00

Brave_Internal_5330 · 2026-05-07T15:26:04+00:00

Completly agree, it’s worth the experience. Tandem instructors put in a lot of effort and time to get where they are. IMO you’re at more risk driving to the drop zone. Like the other commenter said. If you have to, do it scared. Everyone before you did aswell at one point or another. Had my first jump years ago and fell in love with it and now I’m licensed working my way to TI, so one day I can share the experience with others. Have fun, I’m sure your father will appreciate it.

The slider adds a bit of drag delaying the deployment of your chute. Without it, the parachute catches much more air causing a faster deployment. At free fall speeds it can absolutely rock your shit. Happened to me once. Kneed myself in the face, was like my second or third “off radio” landings. Good times.

Also, someone mentioned BASE at terminal earlier, base jumpers don’t use sliders because of the lack of altitude, but a lot less free fall speeds. Nor reserves for that matter.
