pinkfairy 0 #4 February 28, 2010 0:0:0 Damn. Just CX skiing. It's not the same. The oly jump plane within reasonable distance had an incident and got damaged by a tree on the finale on a non powered landing. Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet. I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BillyVance 34 #8 March 1, 2010 0:5:0 Five jumps yesterday, however the first one was unusual. Two deaf bastards got to ride their friend's C182 from her home airport in Pell City to Skydive Alabama in Cullman, and jump out at 6000 feet. Then we made the rest of the jumps from their king air, before flying back home with a full moon just rising to the east and the sun setting to the west.

airathanas 0 #11 March 1, 2010 : 4: 0 FINALLY got to jump this weekend- did four jumps. I can't do any tandems until the hole in my bone fills in. I had a screw taken out of my knee 2 weeks ago due to a cyst and fluid retention. Oh yeah: screw Canada. http://3ringnecklace.com/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PolluxSJ 0 #14 March 1, 2010 Rained out on Saturday, but I got 6 jumps in on Sunday. One two-way, and three attempts at a three-way. We still can't get that exit right, but we at least built a star before running out of altitude. Then I did two hop-n-pops before a session in the tunnel that night. It was a loooooong day.

ridestrong 1 #17 March 2, 2010 :3:case Owed beer for landing in the gravel near the whuffo spectator tent, cause I didn't want to land in the mud. There was no one there and it's still separated by an orange mesh fence. *I am not afraid of dying...
