Shayna Richardson's (now West) NEXT JUMP!!

Recommended Posts

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!

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.

Rock on Shayna!

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!

Agreed.

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.

Spare me.


Or you could spare US, as this was a congratulatory thread there was absolutely no compulsion for you to post
You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky)
My Life ROCKS!
How's yours doing?

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."

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

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???

Sonny,
Maybe if the above wasn't still happening, people here might change their attitude. 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.

I didn't have a comment nor a care about whether she jumped again or not but this bothers me

Doesn't sound like she is jumping to get back in the air but jumping to get back in the public's eye..:(:(

Being a "preacher's kid" let me just say to him;
You should spend more time looking UP to God, and less time looking DOWN on other people.
Now, from me personally;
Fuck you, and your feelings!



I kinda of agree with everyone who says she is a media whore.

I let it all go and wished her the best.

but appranetly it is ok to post personal attacks as long as you are the son of a preacher.

and to porve my point FUCK YOU!!!!


I bet this gets deleted, now:D

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.

Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

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.
