sdkd1995 0 #1 July 23, 2006 this is the e-mail we got from Shayna this morning. (for those of you who care.) for the rest, here is something you can all sit around and bitch about. Hi Sonny & Kitty! How are things going for you guys? We really miss you both a lot...we need to get together sometime! I just wanted to let you know, so that you can let others know for us that I am going to jump again on the 29th! I know there are several who are going to do nothing but tear it up, but there are also those who wanted to know so they could be there. I don't have everyones phone numbers or email addres, so I thought the Haze might be the best way to spread the word. We are going to be jumping at Skydive Tulsa on Saturday the 29th of July. Well...Tanner just made a horrible mess...in his pants...and I will be covered soon if we don't get it fixed...talk to you later! Love, Rick, Shayna, and Tanner!

Duckwater 0 #2 July 23, 2006 I saw something on TV about her ill fated jump just yesterday. Its almost like the Geico Caveman add. Can it just go away please... I think it is great for her to jump again, regardless of the debate over her publicity. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
windcatcher 0 #3 July 23, 2006 Sonny, where exactly is she planning to jump? As far as I know, "Skydive Tulsa" doesn't exist anymore--though Dale has a new place in Claremore? Mother to the cutest little thing in the world... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sdkd1995 0 #4 July 23, 2006 i just replied to her mail and asked all those questions. all i know at this point is what she said in my orginal post. i'll add info as i get it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rwieder 0 #5 July 23, 2006 I've had conversations with Shayna as well. I wish her and her family all the best. Naysayers will always be there and that is something they will always deal with.

jtval 0 #7 July 24, 2006 Agreed. Good luck to her. Maybe she can show them a better story this timeMy photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skydivermom 0 #8 July 24, 2006 I think it's very healthy to get right back up and try again. I had a bad experience on my AFF jump. Although it was nothing compared to what happened to Shayna, it was still pretty scary. I remember thinking "I cannot let this be my last memory of skydiving." I'm glad she's getting back up there. Shayna, stay safe and I wish you the best!Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bozo 0 #9 July 24, 2006 QuoteAgreed. Good luck to her. Maybe she can show them a better story this time We all hope she has a much better jump this time, JT......although thats not what the news media cares about. They want blood. bozo Pain is fleeting. Glory lasts forever. Chicks dig scars. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtval 0 #10 July 24, 2006 True. if her jumps goes "uneventful" they won't show it every 9 minutes.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diablopilot 2 #11 July 24, 2006 Fucking super. Who gives a rats ass..... maybe you should foward it to the media so we can have some more negative press about the sport.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are.

diablopilot 2 #16 July 24, 2006 Preach to someone else, I've got no need. With as much damage as that woman did in a short time to the face of this sport, I have little interest in offering any sort of congratulations for her intent. You want to call her a "skydiver"? When she quietly makes a hundred or so jumps and actually pretends to be a part of this community by learning and contributing in a positive light, then maybe I'll shelve my distain. Till then her sensationalistic ways have placed her in the exact same category as the others who make a visitors appearance in this sport and through incompetence manage to brush up against the consequences that a skydiver knows and accepts accountability for, and refuses to place blame or exploit. There is a name for that category of jumper. "Tourist."---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

sdkd1995 0 #17 July 24, 2006 here is the latest update from Shayna... Sonny, I will be doing a tandem...when I start back to solo I think I am going to go straight to AFF...not sure as of right now. We will be jumping out of a cesna, and Rick will be jumping too...shooting the video...of course. On that load I don't think there will be room for anyone else becuase the camera guy for Inside Edition is going to be going up also...but not jumping...lol. We will be out there all day though...so it would still be a fun day at the dropzone. I am going to try to jump around 10 or 11 am. Thanks for spreading the word! I would love to see you there! Let me know if you are going to try to go! Love ya! Shayna Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duckwater 0 #18 July 24, 2006 I was going to be nice before I read this. She is not skydiving, she is going to be a passenger on a thrill ride and bringing Inside Edition along to further sensationalise her bullshit survival story. JP is right, and I say we boycott any DZ that allows her to jump (or "tourist") there. What DZ is allowing this??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While I disagree with JP's snarky response, I agree with his point about Shayna's attitude - she should just lay low. You're (and she) better off just not posting any updates for a while.

catfishhunter 2 #20 July 24, 2006 I didn't have a comment nor a care about whether she jumped again or not but this bothers me QuoteOn that load I don't think there will be room for anyone else becuase the camera guy for Inside Edition is going to be going up also. Doesn't sound like she is jumping to get back in the air but jumping to get back in the public's eye.. MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have. We must live life to the fullest EVERY DAY. Everything we do should have a greater purpose. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jlmiracle 7 #24 July 24, 2006 Quotediapers are expensive Who is paying for her skydive? What about all those surgeries that she is going to still be needed cause she shouldn't have to go through life without a few teeth? Maybe she need to re-evaluate her choices and put the kid first and buy the kid some diapers instead of doing a skydive. I have to agree with JP on this. jBe kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sdkd1995 0 #25 July 24, 2006 judge not, lest ye be judged. i'm quite sure this jump will be paid for. oh what the hell, maybe some of you are actually important enough to think that any part of this story really affected you "personally". that or your soap opera is getting dull. either way, if it makes you feel better about yourself to hammer others mistakes... can i come live in one of you guys' glass houses? the view must be great from up there, you self-rightous morons.
