jlmiracle 7 #32 January 8, 2003 Best Skydiver. hmmm, there are so many. I would have to say, Kate and Tony, Dan BC, Charlie Mullins, Jeff Mullins, and Joel Mullins, and many many more.

konradptr 0 #33 January 8, 2003 How about Craig Girard of AZ Airspeed. I can't stand "deployment position flying", aka RW, but every time I see Craig, with 17,000+ jumps, just seeing him brings a smile to my face with his personality and character... ------------------------------------------ Getting banned isn't that bad......

mouth 0 #34 January 8, 2003 Craig Rocks. 6 jumps with his a$$ my target every jump...no wonder I made it in EVERY time. The guy is a solid skydiver and a wonderful teacher. -- Hot Mama At least you know where you stand even if it is in a pile of shit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkymonkeyONE 4 #35 January 8, 2003 It must be noted that Craig Girard is also an avid freeflyer, BirdMan pilot, and a fucking outstanding swoop competitor. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sweeney 0 #38 January 9, 2003 Cheryl Stearns is the absolute women's world champ. She has like 20 something national championships and a bunch of WORLD championships. I think she also has the world record for most jumps made in a 24 hour period. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zenister 0 #39 January 9, 2003 QuoteIt must be noted that Craig Girard is also an avid freeflyer, BirdMan pilot, and a fucking outstanding swoop competitor. indeed have to give him major props..he somehow manages to make 15-20 training jumps in and still has time for a few fun FF and tracking dives at the end of the day..add to that the fact that he seems to remember everyones name even if he only met them once.. i love the FF crowd at Eloy, many many world class skydivers ive been lucky enough to jump, learn and play with, but Craig gets my all around thumbs up..____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

Faicon9493 141 #45 June 20, 2012 This is an interesting topic and made me think about the best skydiver I knew but never had a chance to jump with. That would be Jack "Wildman" Wallace. He was jumping in E. Troy, WI when I started and he was a 1st class relative worker when many were still trying to figure it out. I missed jumping with him because he had a terrible work injury that left him paralyzed. I hope he's alive and well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Remster 30 #46 June 20, 2012 Since this thread was very skilfully necromanced, I'll chime in and add my name being Craig's. That guy is a one awesome skydiver... All around. Tho seeing him keep up with someone in full track, by simply sideslidding, was pretty awesome in itself! lolRemster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #47 June 21, 2012 Jack is alive and well, living in Deland and is a member of our forums. He's kind of a smart-ass though. She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
