skybytch 273 #1 September 6, 2005 Format - humps (or other significant number):jumps:beer owed 3:3:1 3 - number of trips down the Super Slide it took to establish that I am the super ultimate supreme most bitching winner. 3 jumps. Did a suprise freebie Thursday; the boss had to show the plane off to some clients. Took a (not dirtdived) four way off, #5 came in and then we tracked. Fun stuff. Stopped by Madera on Saturday morning and got a two way freefly in out of their Cessna. Sat student, climbed out and hung from the strut Short skydive though... Ended the weekend with another 2 way back at Davis. That's where the beer comes in - did my first ever tube exit. Really. I'd never done one before. I swear.

BillyVance 34 #13 September 6, 2005 2:6:1 Got my first Drag-Plane! A three stack with the bottom person inverted! Lots of fun! Also took my DZO in a 2 stack all the way down to about 50 feet AGL, where we separated then landed side-by-side. On the next CRW jump, we had a 3 stack with the 4th person trying to dock on the bottom, but he snagged the 3rd guy's Reflex pop-top with his canopy on a fly-by, effectively deploying his reserve while still in the stack! He was dropped cleanly and cut away his main cleanly. All is good. Man, I've gotta stop chasing and catching things in mid-air... Went after his reserve pop-top and bridle. Snagged it on my lines just out of reach on the first pass. Shook it off, then for some asinine reason went after it again. We were well over a mile off the DZ at about 6000 feet. I lined up perfectly on it and grabbed it high, reeled it in and stuffed it between my legs. Everybody landed okay. On the sunset load, a bunch of us got on namdrib's 2000th jump. Congratulations Steve, you golf-cart wrecking dude, you! Damn, it seems like it was only 2 years ago that I was on his 1000th jump!

Jeth 0 #19 September 6, 2005 0 : 6 : too much Gorgeous weekend at SDC for the New Wave Boogie! Unfortunately, my weekend started out with a nasty mal/cutaway on jump #2 (my first). (See thread in safety & training, if interested.) But it ended on a high note with me doing my 1st safe 6-way attempt and some nice canopy flying on rental gear. Glad no one was hurt with my mal, and glad I got back in the air. (Thanks again, Sunny!Many highs and lows this weekend, but overall a lot of lessons learned and more good times than bad.

davedlg 0 #20 September 6, 2005 1:13:0 1 - Extremely near miss under canopy with an aircraft that overflew the landing area at 1500 feet. The plane passed less than 200' directly beneath me and there were 20 other open canopies above, below, north, south, east and west of me. 13 Jumps. 3 RW jumps and 10 sitfly jumps. I'm amazed at how much I progressed in my sitflying this weekend. No Beer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ACMESkydiver 0 #22 September 6, 2005 Well now Lisa what exactly constitutes a 'hump'? After all, are we talking intercourse? Bill Clinton says that oral doesn't count! All orifices? Orgasm? <--Of course, you can do that to yourself though... -come on, what defines a hump? Enquiring minds want to know! ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

Elisha 1 #24 September 6, 2005 QuoteWell now Lisa what exactly constitutes a 'hump'? I saw her get ri.....I guess that was the tube jump. Fun 3-way with Murph and Ross (although I felt just a tad pretentious wearing Pete Galli's old suit with a 300-way WR patch). Horney Gorilla exit with Ross and some sit/stand flying attempts.

wildblue 7 #25 September 6, 2005 3 (blinds hung that took way longer than it should have) : 3 : probably some Crappy pizza, mediocre beer, good comedy (that trailed off as the comedian got drunk) The 40 Year Old Virgin wasn't as funny as I was hoping. The Alouette is more fun than I remembered.
