iluvtofly 0 #1 August 31, 2010 I work with 2 other skydivers in the office (scary thought I know, 3 skydivers from the Farm working in the same office). The one guy didn't come in yesterday so I stole his red Swingline stapler. I'm waiting for the fun to start when he gets here and notices that it's missing.

I have seen some haze and polution, but never clouds. I'll never jump in rain again.Well, maybe with a full face and some thick clothing. Done that once too. Never again, hopefully! I was in shorts and t-shirt out on the strut of the C-182 flying right under the base of a gray cloud over the DZ at about 4000 feet and all of a sudden the cold stinging feeling of rain blasted me in the neck, arms and legs and I fell off the strut/step in shock and right into an excruciating barrage of raindrops or hell it could have been pellets or BBs that all I could do was cover my face with my forearms and do a quick pull. It was still raining when I got back on the ground and I gathered up my canopy and ran as fast as I could to the hangar. There was a hustle and bustle in the hangar, you know, a DZ going about its business as normal, until I shed my t-shirt. Then everything stopped and everybody stared at me. I had dime-sized deep red welts all over my chest arms legs whatever wasn't protected by the harness!

theonlyski 8 #15 August 31, 2010 QuoteDo canopies work in the rain? They don't work well as umbrellas though, gotta remember, you're going forward. I normally would pull my goggles down once I was open, nope, kept them on and had to wipe them the whole canopy ride. Good thing I landed as close to the packing tent as they allowed us to."I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
