377 22 #3 June 26, 2008 It is a just a one off. I am not a t shirt seller. Just getting tired of the same old skydive t shirts. You can get one made to your design for under ten dollars at: www.vistaprint.com I am not pushing this outfit, there are many others. Vistaprint did a good job on one I ordered but they bombard you with spam so be careful what email address you give them.2018 marks half a century as a skydiver.

JohnRich 4 #4 June 27, 2008 Quote POINT BREAK MAKES SKYDIVING SEEM LIKE CRACK but in reality it's just meth. So, in effect you would be admitting that you have used two illegal drugs enough to know what the differences are like. It wouldn't impress me. To the contrary...

377 22 #6 June 27, 2008 Hi Beth!! I am not a druggie. I wouldn't know crack from Nutrasweet. I just get bored with no WFFC this summer and like to stir things up. What good is the First Amendment if ya don't use it? I'd drop the whole idea if I knew there were going to be WFFC 2009 t shirts available next summer on site somewhere. Sure miss you and the whole gang. Mark2018 marks half a century as a skydiver. Trained by the late Perry Stevens D-51 in 1968. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LongWayToFall 0 #8 June 27, 2008 isn't the whole scene before they jump trying to say that skydiving is like a drug, but a natural one? why don't u have it say "skydiving, makes crack seem like a bowl of wheaties" or something Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baksteen 84 #10 June 27, 2008 I think it's just lame.. sorry Skydiving: makes crack seem like bowling or maybe in the interest of stirring things up Skydiving: (Picture) Not a sport for everyone And on the back: Skydivers must be dumb enough to do it bright enough to survive.

DougH 270 #11 June 27, 2008 Why not go for a t-shirt hell type of approach. Skydiver share... we love to pass your daughter around. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

377 22 #15 June 30, 2008 Sure glad I bought a few WFFC videos from Q and Rantoul.

377 22 #16 June 30, 2008 Skydiving makes crack seem like bowling. That's a lot better than the T Shirt text I originally proposed. It gets rid of the dated Point Break reference and is not pro drug. I also kinda like this one, since beer is as much a part of skydiving culture as canopies. Skydiving makes crack seem like beer. Or... with an ironic twist: Skydiving makes beer seem like crack2018 marks half a century as a skydiver. Trained by the late Perry Stevens D-51 in 1968.

As you know we have LOTS of bad weather here, so our videos get really well worn out. It's kinda cool to me to arrive at any dz anywhere and see them watching OUR videos. Guess lots of us liked the WFFC.skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
