DannyW 0 #3 May 3, 2013 hey, yeah you probably will ! sitting at a bench by myself giving the clouds a death stare haha. York is usually a pretty good spot as there is hardly ever wind and usually sunny but I can't wait to get my licence and start jumping all over oz but I think to celebrate a trip to Dubai would be the go Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandarism 0 #4 May 3, 2013 Sounds like a plan haha, I'm currently in Middle East and will be passing through Dubai on my way home. Probably going to book some tunnel time before I leave Compromise, A Few Seconds Of Pain, For A Life Time Of Shiny :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DannyW 0 #8 May 7, 2013 got 2 jumps in just before the weather came back, drop zone was quiet which is odd, so I got both in from the moment I got there after lunch. Wasn't any games going on but the instructors did fill me in on the instructions they were given by their boss "no more weird stuff" now if anything is weird to these guys it must be REALLY weird . Panda, cannot wait to try it out hopefully it won't be too long a wait Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandarism 0 #9 May 7, 2013 Yeh same mate, won't have to travel overseas and book accommodation ontop of the price of tunnel time. Plus I live 5 mins from Penrith I can walk there They were selling intial shares to the public about 6 months ago but I missed out cause I was overseas, hopefully they will do a second public release.

Remember most posters here assume that USPA rules are in force wherever you are, so some advice is simply wrong for us. And yes - no more weird stuffExperienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
