AggieDave 6 #2 September 28, 2006 Yeah, now you get to read about everything going on that you read about on DZ.com about 2 months ago.

AggieDave 6 #5 September 28, 2006 Quote Well I'm excited!! I look forward to this magazine all month! Seriously? Are you in it this month? When I get my copy I flip through it and look for my friends. After that I put it in the bathroom and 1 or 2 of the articles are sometimes read. Its more for people visiting, then they'll have something interesting to read in the bathroom. Although most of my friends that come over are skydivers, so it doesn't matter.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

JustChuteMeNow 0 #6 September 28, 2006 Well if they had pics of say nekid jumps in places like Sebastian I might be more inclined to be excited. Of course that's just an example Think of how stupid the average person is and realize that statistically half of them are stupider than that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybytch 273 #14 September 28, 2006 QuoteCome on, I can't be the only one excited about getting Parachutist! You're not. I enjoy reading the articles (it's rare that I don't learn something) and checking out the pictures (it's rare that I don't see someone I know in a pic or that took a pic and/or something I wish I was good enough to do) and seeing which people that I know got licenses, awards and ratings.

Come on, I can't be the only one excited about getting Parachutist!I look forward to it... but I really miss Skydiving Magazine (I let my subscription lapse and haven't gotten around to renew it yet...) like others have said I generally look through it and see if I know anybody in it then... stick it on a table and perhaps read it every once in a while...Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

Aw Dave, it's good for newer jumpers to read Parachutist. The safety articles and bounce counts are good to learn from. Also good articles on different disciplines and all. I go to Skydiving Magazine for all the real news. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
karenmeal 0 #23 September 29, 2006 I used to be stoked to get my parachutist! Now it seems to be fairly redudant, with too much advertising and like the yearbook in highschool.. I'm never in it.

SickMonkey 0 #24 September 29, 2006 I really wish I had the option to get Skydiving Magazine instead of Parapoopist with my USPA membership. Or not get any magazine and pay half of what a membership costs and just read the magazines in the DZ bathroom. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
