Peej 0 #1 February 26, 2007 Ok so i've never started one of these threads (and when i searched i couldn't find one for the past weekend), so here goes: humps, jumps, beer bought 1: 8: 3 8 jumps this weekend, beer bought for my first jumps on a Velo, my first atmonauti flight and for the fact that i flew my first tandem camera jumps on my back from exit to deployment, feels so good.

matt1215 0 #5 February 26, 2007 :3:1 for my first jumps on a Safire2-169. I made 3 solos Saturday, they were all about pulling high and feeling out the canopy. Good landings, but it was fairly windy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Must try that 0;0;0 One of our students did that once on his first jump off of the static line. Went unstable, pulled on his back. Did a backflip through the risers, then a downwinder into the corn. I had decided to name him CornStar after that, but he never came back cavete terrae. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Must try that 0;0;0 If you're in the Southern hemisphere, you have to deploy while on your back. It's like the syphon thing. Everything is reversed down there.

wildfan75 1 #15 February 26, 2007 Of course:0:"1" The "1" is in quotes because technically it was not a beerable offense. The 12" of snow we got put a damper on jumping but I was voted Student of the Year at our annual club meeting. Too bad it is a kiss of death thing. The plaque is riddled with names of students that don't jump anymore. So I started to say my good byes to everyone. Hopefully I'll be able to break the curse!!!
