Weekend Numbers 07/22-24

Recommended Posts

0:5:3

Didn't get to jump Saturday... woke up late and felt like shit so I decided to stay home. Got 5 jumps in today.

First solo

First time screwing up my landing pattern and landing in the bean field @ SDC... (twice :S). Luckily both were only about 5 feet into the beans and I stood them both up anyway.

First time jumping in >100 degree heat :S... nasty.


Was supposed to jump with Sunshine but didn't make it on Saturday and she fled the heat before I got there today... hopefully next weekend.

Finally met Jeth today, too :)

2 solo jumps from the most ghetto cessna ever...but the DZ is only about 40 miles away.



Hey now! Did it get you to altitude? I rest my case! :P

Sorry, having been "born and raised" at a cessna dz, I get a little protective. ;)



Me too, this was a different dz than the one I did AFF and this was DEFINITELY the most ghetto cessna.

4+; 16+; 2

At least 4 times that I have watched Team America this month alone and laughed till my stomach hurt!!!!!!

At least 16 jumps, but I need to officially check that when I get home and fill in my log book tonight. Lots of tandem video, very little freefly, some cool CRW, and a demo into the county fair.

:D First real CRW jump. All I can say is.... WOW! This was one of the coolest experiences of my life. Went out with a few shit hot canopy pilots who taught me a thing or two. Last night's sunset load we got a stack, a biplane and a downplane. The downplane would have worked better if Mike's shoe hadn't flown off. ;)

:D 900th... but I have to finish logging to see what that jump was. I just know I must have hit it this weekend. :P

Nice weekend. Filmed DC-3 for the last 4 rounds of the MESL meet Sat. Also filmed another 4 way and a tandem video in there too. Sunday was 2 birdman jumps and 2 times filming Kristi as she was learning to back fly.

2 awesome 3 ways on Saturday for the Indiana Skydiving Academy 3 way competition which my team won B|.

Today did a 2 way a 3 way and a solo, basically just screwing around. Too hot to do too much, and packing really sucked this weekend. I think I lost about 5 pounds



Yea!! You rock!! B| Sorry I missed all the fun. It was too fucking hot for me yesterday. [:/]

Great to meet you, Mike!! :) Sorry about those bean landings, I am all too familiar with the corn myself. ;) I couldn't deal with that damn heat yesterday, but next time we'll do a jump! :)
