jimstermer 0 #1 January 10, 2007 I know there is a skydiving jokes thread going around but I'm looking for short catchy sayings (something that'll fit on the back of a shirt) that will get the attention of whuffos and get them interested enough to atleast ask about what it means. As of now I've got: When in doubt, whip it out! Skydiving: With us you'll be arching you back and screaming for joy all day Anyone can fall out of a plane; skydivers just do it right Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iluvtofly 0 #2 January 10, 2007 I don't know of any sayings but those are pretty good. Let us know what you decide to get. I may just ask you to get me one as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #4 January 10, 2007 How about this in HUGE letters: "HOLY SHIT!" Then this in small letters: (what everyone says after their first jump)--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Squeak 17 #5 January 10, 2007 I've had Tshirts made up and on the back they have "If You Can Read This Sign ...... DON'T LET ME EXIT THE PLANE" quite a few wuffos have asked about itYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS! How's yours doing?

mccurley 1 #6 January 10, 2007 I used to have one with a silloette of a canopy and jumper in profile, surounded by calculations to calculate the lift generated by the airfoil. Across the top in big letters it said "I don't care how, just so long as it does!"Watch my video Fat Women http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRWkEky8GoI Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimstermer 0 #8 January 10, 2007 We actually did have some other sayings, those three are just what we've narrowed them down to. I'll throw up the rest incase someone else is looking for shirt sayings. If your parachute fails, remember that you have the REST OF YOUR LIFE to fix it… Will skydive for food (or beer if we want a college version) I don’t believe in gravity… I just think the world sucks I have a strong tendency to throw myself out of airplanes The sky is NOT my limit… It’s my PLAYGROUND The beer light is on! I’m a skydiver… What do you do? Gravity. It’s the law. There’s no such thing as a perfectly good plane. Stupidity kills. The more you arch the better it feels. Mile High Club – Want to join?

Froggy 0 #11 January 10, 2007 I like what's on one of my t-shirts (from Skydive Space Center): "The sky is not the limit! The ground is..." Also, may not be originally skydiving-related, but fits very nicely, IMO: "The art of flying is to throw yourself at the ground and miss." -- Douglas Adams-------------- We were not born to fly.

To the OP: Another goodie for a tee-shirt is somebody's sig line around here, it goes something like: "Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels for fun!"

Change the time on the hall clock. Walk the dog. Do the shopping. Mow the lawn. Skydive." didn't have the same ring to it.
