wildfan75 1 #1 February 9, 2009 Doesn't look like anyone's started it yet... 6:6:1 6 months since Todd died. 6 jumps - a 4 way, a coach jump, a hnp, a 20 sec delay solo, a 7 way and an 8 way. Beer owed for doing my first final signature and stamp on a student's A license card. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfriverjoe 1,523 #2 February 9, 2009 0,1,2 First jump of the year. First jump at that DZ. First snow landing. I stood it up, but it was into about a foot of snow and my feet got soaked walking out. And I got to see 3 "out landers" brought back in a limoYes, I have pics. "There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

buff 0 #4 February 9, 2009 Great WX Sat & no tandems. Tried to bump end cells with Hobie. Got danm close but ran out of altitude before we could make 'em touch so no beer. Tonight I took a very hard check to the left wrist while playing indoor lacrosse. Don't think it's broken but it is pretty swollen and black so jumping may be out for awhile. I did tee the f'ing dude up before I got subbed out.It's called the Hillbilly Hop N Pop dude. If you're gonna be stupid, you better be tough. That's fucked up.

huge 0 #6 February 9, 2009 0:0:0 Five weeks since my last jump. After that it has been either bad weather or I have been out of the country. Today weather would be perfect but there isn't a club anywhere nearby that would jump during the week. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jumpingjunkie81 0 #13 February 9, 2009 Please pardon my ignorance, but how do the numbers work? I get that the middle one is how many jumps you made, but I'm baffled by the other two numbers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Icon134 0 #20 February 10, 2009 0:3:1 Only 3 jumps this weekend in Eloy before the winds picked up on Saturday and it rained off and on and was mostly overcast Sunday and Monday... but Beth and I did share an hour of Tunnel Time in 2 - 30 min blocks... Sunday night and Monday morning... My first time in the tunnel... and it was a lot of fun and wasn't as awkward as I thought it was going to be. Sunday we got some free instruction from Curtis (sp) from Arizona Arsenal. Then Monday afternoon we went over to Picacho Peak and climbed to the top. The almost hour in the tunnel and the Climbing this afternoon is certainly going to result in some pain but it was a lot of fun and I'm not looking forward to going back to Ohio tomorrow.Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

JohnMitchell 16 #21 February 10, 2009 No jumps either, although Vskydiver, Roo, and I drove out. By the time we got there, our clear skies had turned overcast.So, we went home and started drinking up for Roo's B-day. Great time. Wish you all could have been there.
