gemini 0 #1 April 16, 2005 Grand opening of the largest Honda dealership in the Southwest. InsaneDaddy, JumperConway, and I made two jumps each. Amanduh. DZTom, EZBoyd and LeahB were the ground crew. It's always fund to land to applause and high five all the kids, eat free, drink free and best of all jump free. Only negative was when the police showed up because someone on the adjacent freeway called 911 and reported a jumper without a parachute. We decided it must have been Conway doing his hook with his white main hard to see against the white puffy clouds in the background. And the best salesperson awared goes to Amanduh! Thanks to everyone who made this demo a success. Blue skies, Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BillyVance 34 #4 April 17, 2005 Cool! Gotta love Honda! They like demo jumps... Last year I was on the Honda Appreciation Day demo jump at the Visionland amusement park near Birmingham. All the employees and family members from the Honda plant in Lincoln, AL, which makes the Pilot and Oddyssey vehicles had the day at the park and we were landing on the narrow sand beach of the wave pool. No outs unless you wanted to drop in the pool or in the jam-packed parking lot. Anyway, if there are any pictures from your demo, post them!
