happythoughts 0 #1 May 27, 2008 The tallest person on the dz (6' 8") and a fairly small one (around 5') were on the same team. The funniest part is that you get a Star looks like an arrowhead. If there was an award for laughing and having a good time, they would have got it. Happy Birthday to Laura, Happy Birthday... The prize for Most Positive Spin: "How's it going?" "Not bad. I've probably done worse skydives." Most Original Response: "Well... there was a Japanese movie monster named Gamera. A giant turtle that flew by spinning around on his back and shooting flames out the legs. Our last exit was like that." Many, many thanks to Sally for all her coaching. It is awesome to be able to ask a 4-way world champ for advice. Just being able to take advantage of all that knowledge. The team captains were looking around and noticed that their 4-way coaches were out for the day. 16 teams. Bunches of talent available. That is the great thing about scrambles. Coming out to skydive, learning amazing stuff, and having a good time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lauras 0 #2 May 27, 2008 It's fun to have 60+ people crammed into the bar sing "Happy Birthday"! Random drawings make grown adults go completely nuts (in a good way). I found out that I'm TK's ex-wife. My favorite team names were "Butastic" & "Who Ate My Lunch." Bedazzlers are very useful instruments of torture. 3 of the video guys (Pip, Dave & Jody) made 15 jumps each; 3 on, 1 off. Dave now has more jumps on Oren's new Velocity than Oren.

(sides hurt) Somebody is way behind on their current events. Quote My favorite team names were "Butastic" & "Who Ate My Lunch." I told Bu that he could use our slightly-modified team name next year. We were "See Blue Play". (Southern Hooked on Phonics. ) Original and inventive. He showed me how to do a cool Tail exit on a Phalanx yesterday. Now I'm working on a Halloween costume.
