skyediver 0 #1 January 5, 2003 Hey...I'm relatively new to the forums but haven't just posted a "hello" so here it is! I was wondering if someone could tell me who HH is...I've seen the "name" in a lot of different posts...I jump in Nova Scotia, Canada so no jumping for me for another 3 months or so :( Hope all of you in Florida, Arizona, and such are having the time of you life!!

CanuckInUSA 0 #3 January 5, 2003 Hi Arran ... welcome to DZ.COM If you're like the stereo-typical maritimer then I know you will be liked around here. For those who don't know this, maritimers from Canada are some of the friendliest people you will ever meet. HH (aka Sangiro) is the cool dude who runs these forums. I got to meet him (and do one jump with him) last week while we were at Eloy. Oh and before I go, you forgot to mention that you also hope the jumpers here in Colorado (as well as Florida and Arizona) are having the time of our lives. Believe it or not, the weather here is awesome and very jumpable most weekends. But I didn't want to get your spirits down. You too will be in the air before you know it. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyediver 0 #4 January 5, 2003 Hey Steve...sorry to have left out Colorado...not really sure who has good weather and who doesn't (':)') Thanks for the good word on maritimers...haha...I only have 15 jumps at the moment and I'd like to stick around for a while. Hi ernokaikkonen, thanks for the info...P.S. if you guys don't mind my asking...how old were you when you first started jumping? Arran (':)') Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi ernokaikkonen, thanks for the info...P.S. if you guys don't mind my asking...how old were you when you first started jumping? I'm in my 30s and my first jump was on July 14th, 2002 and I've been hooked ever since. By the way, I've wanted to try skydiving for years, but I had way too many whuffo issues back then (which have obviously been shed).
