jlkskycam 0 #26 April 5, 2006 Quotewhats it like for you jumpers who jump from dropzones that are in deserts? don't you get bored looking down and just seeing brown dirt for miles and miles? thats the beauty of jumping in England, you have lushous green land to look down at, full of GREEN fields, trees, rivers... do you find it boring looking at scorched brown earth all the time? don't you long for a nice view when you look down? Not when the dust-devils are spooling up in the afternoon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL And just how many jumps can you do in England in a year? I mean from 13500. . . Personally not many but that is down to a lack of cash, but there are plenty of Brits who post hundreds of jumps per year in the UK plus additional foreign skydives.

Nightwing 0 #30 April 7, 2006 Well, at my dz, we can land on a desert gravel plain or land in the dunes or hilly moon landscape or down on the beach. And the weather is clear almost everyday of the year. Yep, sucks having a dz in the desert. Drags me down, like some sweet gravity... Nightwing has stirred, and taken to flight...the silence is over, he's shattered the night!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've jumped at Cloverdale and Holister, beautiful there too, just completely different scenery. eh, I think its all that "eye of the beholder" thing. dropdeded------------------------------------------ The Dude Abides. - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Broke 0 #32 April 7, 2006 You know if you happen to be in a desert that below sea level you can effectively get more altitude without having to wear oxygenDivot your source for all things Hillbilly. Anvil Brother 84 SCR 14192 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
