Hi from Indiana

Recommended Posts

Hi I thought I would introduce myself since I’m reading this forum for quite a while now.

I’m 34 and originally from Switzerland, living in Indiana now though. I just started skydiving at Jerry’s Skydiving Circus. Great people there, did not see anyone jumping in a clown costume though. Well some of the jumpsuits are pretty close hehe.

I just did my first clear and pull, working towards a 5s delay. Even though everybody seems to be doing AFF these days, I specifically looked for a DZ that does static line. I felt the slower progression would suit me better. So far it has been great. It’s nice being able to look forward to some freefall time.

The scariest part was climbing out to your hanging position, but I’m getting slowly used to it. Flying the canopy is fun though, almost wish the canopy ride would last longer.

That’s all for now. See ya around.

Yep that is me. You're doing pretty well. It took me a dozen times of meeting the same people before I started remembering half of their names. B|

Serious relationships turn into work after a few weeks and I already got a fucking job :)

Welcome.I used to jump at Jerry's every now and then back in the late '90's and early 2000's.

My home DZ was Skydive Greensburg.

I can now say my home dz USED TO be Greensburg.... I think the folks at Jerry's Skydiving Circus are willing to adopt me so I can make it my new home.

Oh and for no one in clown suits... they are there trust me. They just come out at night.

Tony - I think I need to post the pic of Dusty from Sunday night in his clown get up! Actually should talk to Dick about making it the new logo!!!!

Unfortunately ... The only clown pictures that came out was one of him with the hair on. I'll dig that up when I get home. Hopefully the new iPhone has a better camera. Mine is horrible. Did you get some good ones?
