A clique (IPA:/'kliːk/, pronounced /'klɪk/ by some Americans) is an exclusive group of people who share interests, views, purposes, patterns of behavior, or ethnicity.[1] A clique as a reference group can be either normative or comparative. Membership in a clique is often, but not necessarily, exclusive, and qualifications for membership may be social or essential to the nature of the clique. The term 'clique' may be used pejoratively. it is what it is Hmm ... we (skydivers) as a group are a "clique", aren't we? my opinion is that skydivers are just a group not necessarily a clique, but i would say that the different disciplines (freeflyeers, wingsuiters, freestyle, etc.) would be the cliques."Never grow a wishbone, where your backbone ought to be."
