McDuck 0 #3 November 29, 2005 Yeah, but maybe there are people who didn't get to jump AT ALL in November who would be envious of your 4 jumps...I"m not one of them, but they might exist.

jakee 1,557 #4 November 29, 2005 QuoteAt the DZ at least one weekend day (except Thanksgiving weekend) all month So thats like 4 or 5 days then? Suck it up dude, its the winter. I (and many others here) can trade you much longer bad weather runs than that, some of them during summer!

GrendelKhan 0 #9 November 29, 2005 I don't know if moving south would help. I live in Texas and haven't been able to jump in 3 WEEKS. WTF? Granted though, I am still a student and conditions which may ground me are fine for more experienced jumpers, which sucks even worse because I get to hang out at the DZ all day watching everybody else jump and thinking about about how much paintball I could have been playing instead.

QuoteI am still a student and conditions which may ground me are fine for more experienced jumpers True, sometimes though the conditions should be looked at by the experienced as well. They do not always do that. Quotewhich sucks even worse because I get to hang out at the DZ all day watching everybody else jump Why don't you read the S.I.M. or take some pack classes. Pack for money when you cannot jump. Something like that. I know a person used to be able to take the written test before they had the jumps. You could be studying and have that out of the way.

Find out what you can knock out. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I know a girl who passed the Canadian Rigger A written test when she only had one jump. Hint: CSPA normally requires more than 50 jumps before the Rigger A Course, but waived that requirement because hse grew up on a DZ and had packed school mains fo the last 4 years. The bottom line is - while you are still a student - there is plenty of book work and ground school to keep you busy during the cold months. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanuckInUSA 0 #21 November 29, 2005 I've only made 4 jumps in all of November myself (which is an all-time low for this camper). But I don't consider them to be miserable jumps. They were fun jumps and I was happy to see that my skill level didn't drop off that much (yet) due to my inactivity.
