Icon134 0 #3 February 19, 2006 I drink very rarely... I will occasionally have a glass of wine with dinner, etc... but do not enjoy the taste of beer and as such I don't drink it. So I'm gonna go with no you aren't alone. btw: I'm planning to bring a case of gatorade or something for our DZ's Safety day as payement for getting my C-license.

I won't say I don't drink because I do, but I have my self imposed limits and strictly adhere to them. I do know there are some who don't drink, one of my instructors doesn't...The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontbounce 0 #15 February 20, 2006 I drank the first time I did my tandem, and I drank after my AFF L-1. Mostly just an issue with nerves, and being so amped up that I felt sick to my stomach and had the shakes. I assume after a few more jumps, this will become less of an issue. Normally, I almost never drink. When I do, a double shot of Gin does the trick. ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #19 February 20, 2006 I don't drink anymore.......... or any less. Nothing wrong with not drinking. I encourage it actually. Leaves more of the free beer for me.

I guess when you walk down the aisle still sedated from the "night before" shannigans is when you have to say STOP! I came round at the high alter MARRIED! Holy shit, I missed the whole lot. Apparently I did it. Reception was banging and I had a great time as I was just topping up on the night before, but my new husband would'nt talk to me all night, maybe not such a bad thing looking back on it.

Dumpster 0 #21 February 20, 2006 I've been a beer drinker pretty much my entire adult life - I'm one of those blue-collar guys who likes a beer after work every day, and maybe a few more on the weekend. I have all the respect in the world for folks who choose to abstain. It's all good, my man! What I don't like is the folks who preach and tell me I'm going to die and go to hell for drinking.

skydiverbry 0 #22 February 20, 2006 Cool!! So the reserve goes in the deployment bag and gets placed in the bottom tray of the container, sorry my only trouble is I'm having a hard time attaching the hackey to the little thing that pulls out the bigger parachute HMMMMMMM let me check the book.Man there sure is alot of room for those Safire in that reserve tray,hey where do these rubber band go? Fuck it(throws bands behind dumpster)This resrve is just way oo big (exchanges it for an old 150 Stilleto,couple of holes the size of quaters in the center and 6 other cell) Couple of pull-up cord and wa-la.

ROK 0 #24 February 20, 2006 We all went back to my place Saturday night after attending the new building dedication and I watched my cousin blow chunks after guzzling half a bottle of tequila to get the worm.
