VampireGirl 0 #1 April 15, 2005 Is doing your 100th jump naked a South African tradtion? I grew up in SA and did jumps 2 and 3 there, but am basically a UK jumper and want to do my 100th naked. A lot of people seem to think it is a wierd thing to do, but it seems only natural to me. Opinions? XX Sarahwww.sneale-create.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tonto 1 #2 April 15, 2005 I don't think so. My SO is from the US, but she jumps naked with anyone on their 100th. Of course, our climate may be a determining factor... tIt's the year of the Pig. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #5 April 15, 2005 I know its an Aggie tradition to do your 100th buck nekid. Same with a lot of places around the way too. If its not a tradition at your DZ, why not start it?--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bean 0 #7 April 15, 2005 Not weird at all! For my 100th I did a naked night 4 way out of a cessna...... We actually managed a couple of points! I shot some great video on the ride up! Swoo Rodriguez #1020, LawnDart, AR #007 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skystorm 0 #8 April 15, 2005 I did mine bud nekid! It was so much fun! Were suppose to be a 6way out of a c206, exit funneled and the 6way became six 1ways. Only the cameraman could keep up... Gene Police: "YOU!! Out of the pool, NOW!!!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ianmdrennan 2 #15 April 15, 2005 yep it's a tradition (as already stated). Unfortunately I only got to do my 100th and someone elses 100th naked before I left SA. In the US it's all about pie'ing people, which isn't nearly as fun as a naked 100th Performance Designs Factory Team Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Taz 0 #20 April 15, 2005 My actual 100th happened at Byron, California, where I was privileged to jump with a naked King Air full of people and a naked pilot That and the fact that naked jumping is fun--Perhaps more so for women than for men, since we are better designed for it Friends don't let friends jump naked alone! -TIt's the Year of the Dragon.

Skolls081102 0 #22 April 15, 2005 Is this a tradition at most DZ's? I've seen comments about getting pied after your 100th jump, but this is the first referance to doing it naked. I'm just trying to get all the information I can (the more educated I am, the better it will be when I finally start jumping...) The sole intention, is learning to fly.Condition grounded, but determined to try.Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies.Tongue tied and twisted, just an Earth bound misfit.

Pawl 0 #23 April 15, 2005 It's definitely been a strong tradition at our dz (south africa) and it used to be that the whole load went naked...but we have got lenient over the years and only if you want to support the 100 jumper do you go naked now.... bring back the old tradition actually a bunch of them over the years."Africa is not for sissies" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skolls081102 0 #24 April 15, 2005 Not to get too personal here, but- doesn't it hurt to have your unit swinging around and slapping into the boys at 120 miles an hour? I just don't see that as feeling to good....
