Jeth 0 #59 June 27, 2005 I had an awesome time at the New Wave Boogie at SDC!! And also some not-so-good times. 0:8:Way too much 8 jumps - Some awesome 2-ways, 2 3-ways, 2 4-ways and a 5-way at the end! 8 slammer openings... man, those suck. My neck hurts. 4 pack jobs by me, 4 pack jobs by riggers (still slammers) Packing really sucks in 100 degree heat. 1 off-dz landing in the cornfield -- guess I can PLF after all. But it would've been nice if they remembered to come get me so I didn't have to take that hike down the dirt road in 100 degree heat. 5 good landings in the field 1 landing on the taxiway as the plane is landing - not good. But boy, the PLF works! I'm thinkin "Aw, this is gonna hurt!" But I PLFed and was fine. Then I didn't run fast enough off the runway and got a talkin-to by manifest. Ok, lesson learned. (But it sucked that it was my last jump. ) Waaaaaaay too much beer owed! I think rookies should be exempt from the beer rule, every jump is a first! But just for the record, mine were: 1st 3-way, 1st 4-way, 1st 5-way, 1st diving exit, 1st off-dz landing. Big congrats to AJ (soarfree) for her 100th jump this weekend!!!!! All-in-all a great time. Met some really cool people who tried to help me out with my slammers. Jumped with the awesome chicks from the Furies, thanks for all the coaching ladies!! "At 13,000 feet nothing else matters."

hexadecimal 0 #63 June 27, 2005 0:2:1 Finally got some decent weather and some free time on Sunday... Got 2 jumps in... beer owed for my first unassisted exit (?). Ended up leaving at around 3pm even though I could have probably jumped 2 or 3 more times. My back started bothering me after jump #2 for reasons unknown and I didn't want to risk jumping like that. The 100F+ heat all day didn't make walks back to the hangar very pleasant Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tigra 0 #68 June 27, 2005 Re: Hard openings- what are you flying and how is your body position when you dump? Is it possible you are dumping while you are still in a track? Umm- and the beer rule was made for rookies- there are NO exemptions! since when do we pie for anything under a thousand at SDC anyway? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did the different pilot chute help any? No...you weren't the only one that landed off. On the jump that I landed off, I think there were a total of 6 of us that landed off. Life is short!
