matt1215 0 #28 September 18, 2006 QuoteQuote:2:1 (Humps:Jumps:Firsts/Beerable Offenses) I made 2-ways Friday after a packing class, jumping my first 2 pack jobs. First opened a bit slower than I like, the second opened with line-twists. Now I just need to get good at stuffing it into the bag. How was your weekend? Time out... -How in the HOLY FUCK is this not beerable? You jumped your pack job! Good point, definitely . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jloirsdaan 0 #31 September 18, 2006 QuoteBut we did end up going to the driving range and proved that skydivers cant play golf. Very funny!! I was good at golf BEFORE I started skydiving. Since then I haven't played at all. Wow, I have clubs that were almost as expensive as my first rig....and they're gathering dust in the closet. Hmm.....wonder how much $$ I can get off them. Probably at least 20 jumps worth . Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NWFlyer 2 #34 September 18, 2006 QuoteOnly 2 jumps out of a Cessna 206. But I proved I wasn't a turbine snob by showing up for the Star Farms Boogie. Great boogie, good times What she said, except one of my jumps was out of the Caravan when it showed up on Sunday. Didn't jump more mostly because I was having too much fun hanging out in the hammocks or playing in the water.I guess I owe for my first jump at Star Farms."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

livendive 8 #35 September 18, 2006 :6:0 1 night demo into a high school football game 1 currency jump with a guy who hadn't jumped in 15 years. Among other things, I briefed him on the emergence of AADs and 2-out procedures. We went up and had a nice skydive, then he got himself a personal biplane by turning a little too hard at ~600 ft (student CYPRES, Navigator 280). Nice soft landing. A couple zoo 6-ways A tracking dive A 13-way for a guy's 100th. Much beer was consumed and fun had by skydivers at Deutschesfest Friday and Saturday night.

guppie01 0 #36 September 18, 2006 200 : 2 : 2 200 jell-o shots consumed at Star Farms 2 awesome fun jumps I hope the jell-o shots cover the beer owed for Team Liscious and BTR initiations. For those of you that didn't show up to Star Farms you missed out on an AWESOME fun boogie. From the mouths of many - "it's like our own oasis!"

Unless he weighed 600 pounds.. MORE DETAILS PLEASE............ He weighs 210 lbs. The main was a Navigator 280. The CYPRES was a student model. I wasn't looking at him in the few seconds before the CYPRES fired, but by all reports he wasn't spiralling, just turning "aggressively". I also wouldn't expect that canopy/wingloading to generate enough speed while turning to fire a CYPRES, student model or not. Personally, I don't see an advantage to student models. It's much more common to see students chop things they really don't need to than to see them not perform EPs when they really do need to. Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

BillyVance 34 #41 September 18, 2006 0:9:2 9 jumps, all with new deaf AFF graduate Billy Lane. I'm not a USPA certified coach, but he is my first coaching student. He's done an awesome job. And I taught him how to pack, and he successfully jumped all of his pack jobs.

LyraM45 0 #47 September 18, 2006 (Like a rabbit) : 2 : 0 Well, somebody tried to get me to owe beer when I said "Oh my God, that was the first time I was right next to the lead tracker the whole jump," after the sunset track yesterday. I hate it when I drop the F-bomb, but it defintely didn't count for beer (IMO) with this one. I never reply to the weekend number thread, so does this post count for beer?? hahaha.Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weegegirl 2 #48 September 18, 2006 Saturday was kinda crappy out. Sunday was gorgeous. 6 tandem videos and Mike's memorial jump. One of my favorite jumps ever. I guess I owe beer for my first high-five during a swoop. That was cool! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
labrys 0 #49 September 18, 2006 :12:4 I'm cheating and including this weekend and last. Loads of beer owed. Got my coach rating, landed my first student on radio (she lived) did my first night jumps, did my first coach jumps (he lived). I've had more fun jumping the last 2 weekends than the previous 3 years. Owned by Remi #? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
