Byron Boogie/NCFF ROLL CALL!

Recommended Posts

Ya, I think subconsciously I got too drunk / and hung over so I wouldn't hit 300 in Byron... I'll hit it when I'm at the DZ on a VERY slow day ;)

I'd volunteer, but I'm getting too close to 300... and skydivers can be vengeful lil buggers~ :P

You'd be a lot closer if you'd made those 5 jumps last Saturday. :P

Blues,

Weren't we trying to get her to 300 before Prairie? Gia, girl, get your JUMP on! I'm gonna get to 300 before you do at this rate.

I think she's made like 8 jumps in the last two months, all of them at LP. :S:D

Edit to add: I suggest betting her a hundred bucks that you can hit 400 before she does. ;)

Yup, and I feel like I'm just about due for some airtime... :)
I can easily explain to everyone the summer from HELL that I've had, but I wouldn't want to torture them with all my BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH

:P

Theres no way I'd make it... I will be lucky to make it out to the DZ (maybe) once a month now that I've moved. So I think I may concentrate on getting my pilots license here in the near future.

How will I spot DZ.commmers at the Byron Boogie?

Oh wait. They'll be the ones with claw-like fingers all cramped up.... fingertips bleeding. ;)



We'll all wear our dropzone.com t-shirts :)


Maybe....

.....but you'll ALL be wearing Gravity Gear by the end of the boogie! ....

....where is that little devil icon?

Yeah, if they have any money left after scooping up one or more of the 50% off Flite Suit suits and pants I'll be bringing. >:( <--- there's your little devil :P



I ALREADY have a %50 Off Flite Suit coupon I can redeem at my leisure, so I should have money to spend on Gravity Gear.:P

Uhm........Its NorCal. Mary has a permanent residence here. Not that I've ever met her or anything :).



If you had, I'm sure it would only be for "medical" reasons. ;)

I posted the following on the NorCal list and thought I'd post here as well:


Well, it's finally here. The Byron Boogie/NorCal Freefly Festival starts
this Thursday! It looks like its going to be a great weekend, so I hope
everyone is as psyched as we are. I will post some of the boogie details
below, but I also would like to use this as a shout-out for a little
help. As many of you know, Team Jank will be putting on a 3-screen video
extravaganza on Saturday night as well as running the Wheel of Carnage.
We could really use some help to make Saturday night run smoothly. Marc
Doolittle will be in charge of setting up the video equipment and we
could really use someone to assist him. It will involve helping Marc set
up the screens, align the projectors and get everything ready for the
show. Experience isn't really necessary, but would probably be useful.
Also, Ryan and Ted will be running the Wheel but we could use 2-3 people
to help serve the drinks. This would include anyone willing to be in
charge of the Apple Pie shots. We could use a couple of the beautiful
NorCal Ladies to make the Apple Pie shots that much more enjoyable. We
would also like to use an Ice Luge as one of the wheel options this year
and I have heard a couple people mention that they may be able to help.
We don't really know how to go about getting the luge to the dz and we
will be pretty overwhelmed with stuff on Saturday, so if anyone can get
an ice luge to the dz it would be greatly appreciated and you will be
reimbursed.

I would also like to get a list of people who would be willing to shoot
video for a few of our 3-camera jumps that will take place throughout
the boogie. We don't really have any free slots to give away, so it
would be at your own expense. Sorry we couldn't do more, but that's what
we have to work with.

As far as the boogie goes, here are a few details:

Boogie fee will be $30 (unless you pre-registered) and will include
dinners on Friday and Saturday. Jump tickets will be $20.

Thursday: Freefly organizing by Ryan Brownlow, 3-camera jumps designed
for the boogie video, Belly organizers, NIGHT JUMPS and I've heard
whispers of maybe some famous Gumbo being served.

Friday: Freefly organizing by Ryan Brownlow, Ted "Shred" Willet and
Chris DeBar. Belly organizing by Mad John and Gareth. PD and Wings will
both be there with demo equipment. Free beer. Pasta dinner. Swoop & Chug
at sunset. Kareoke from 9-12pm. Freefly video presentaion including:
last year's NorCal Freefly Festival boogie video and the complete
30-minute Shark and Michele tribute video.

Saturday: Freefly organizing by Ryan Brownlow, Ted "Shred" Willet and
Chris DeBar. Belly organizing by Mad John and Gareth. PD and Wings will
both be there with demo equipment. Free beer. Tri-tip steak dinner. The
Wheel of Carnage after sunset. This year's WOC will include; Ice luge
(tentatively), Flaming Drambuies, Saki Bombs (Thanks to Girlfalldown's
generous donation), Top-Shelf Tequila shots, Apple pie shots and
authentic, grow-hair-on-your-face-and-make-you-cry-for-mommy Absinthe
shots! There will also be some great prizes on the wheel, including; 50%
& 35% off PD canopy coupons, 50% off Wings container, 35% off Mirage
container, free and discounted jump suit coupons from Flite Suit/Bomber
Freefly and many more. Team Jank's boogie video extravaganza. Lots and
lots of mayhem! This party will be off the hook!!!

Sunday: Freefly and belly organizing by those that survived Saturday
night's festivities.


We look forward to seeing everyone out there and if you can help with
any of the above items, or if you have any questions, please send me an
email.

Bob
Team Jank

Better check the schedule... you might be begging for a standby seat later in the day. :P

I just found out today I can get Friday off, so I'll probably be heading up late Thur night or Friday morning


No need to hurry, the cool cats are not showing up until late Friday night.:|
