Newbie here curious about what to expect at dropzone parties and after hours at the dropzone. Any comments or insights welcome, especially about skydive dallas. I'm also curious to know how welcome newbies are at these things.

n00bs are welcome...as long as they bring beer. It's the 'cover charge' !


The will be a lot of discussion regarding current events & affairs of the state.

My first thought was "drunken licentiousness," but you covered that, toot-sweet.

Some drunk jumpers are the same as any other drunk pig. They still don'
Understand what NO means. So depending on your gender be prepared to protect your honor or just party hardee.

Drinking and driving kills. If you cant hold your booze crash at the dz on a couch and not on the road.

Same thing you'd expect at any other party:

To be treated like an equal until some drunken asshole gets out of line.

Then, you can either:
1- ignore it and find the jumpers that are NOT assholes.
2- Start a fight (which means you belong with the crowd youre standing with)
3- ignore it and find the jumpers that are NOt assholes. and take it up with the dipshit when you're both sober.

But, Bring beer, a fun attitude and a light heart. You'll be fine.
I think you'll find out pretty quickly that some people just like to hear themselves talk (Kinda like Im doing now)
Some just want to be heard and others will keep you interested in the things they say because they're sincere about whatever they talk about.

Its the same as any other party. we just start off talking about a different subject.

At some point, when enough beer's been drunk, there will be a plan formed to launch a 16-way tube on the first load tomorrow morning.

That jump will never happen.

There are some 'Rules' of sort that a n00b should be made aware of in order to make the experience less traumatic...so to speak.

I'll start the list & hopefully others will add to it:



1. ~ Never try to out drink the old guy with the 'Gultch' hat and the 'HERD' tee-shirt...it's a bad idea & won't end well for you!

i actually learned how to pack after hours with lots of beer. we would pack it, pop it, and pack it again until i learned how to do it. of course, we would always pop it the last time. i'm a firm believer that if you can learn it drunk, it's a lot harder to forget.

Never fall asleep or pass out with your shoes on.
Always put your gear away before the shenanigans start (depending on the dz, possibility of theft, probability of beer or puke getting all over it).

Doesn't that mark the difference between falling asleep and passing out? Falling asleep = shoes off. Passing out = shoes on?

AVGAS is a lot worse than Jet A fuel, specially if you're using it to start the fire, you're hammered and it takes a few minutes to get your lighter to work = very large ball of flame = no eyelashes, no eyebrows and no nose hairs.
