And yaaaaaaaaay for the Grav Rats Robert Shannon and Bryan, what a weird trio And yaaaaay for Douva and Brains. And yaaaaaay for VIBE! Way to represent the Lone Star State folks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites heims 0 #16 October 5, 2004 Thanks for all the support!!! You guys rock!! I want to send out a special thanks to everyone at Skydive Houston for dealing with us all year. NOW we can make some non-training jumps! Thanks also to Todd at Aggieland for getting the Skyvan at AOTMB the weekend before Nationals. Being prepared for the different exit definitely helped. QuoteDid you guys need to use the strap? The Perris Skyvan didn't have a bar for me to attach the strap to, but thankfully they did already have straps on the side that I could reach (so no slipping out the tailgate in those shoes .) Thanks again for letting me use it. Sometimes it just sucks to be short. I also want to say what a blast I had at Nationals. Everyone was super friendly and fun to be around. Amy, Steve, Merriah, Karl, Bryce, Jason, Mary, and Crazy Larry were great to compete with (and fun to party with). I hope I get a chance to see them all again next year at Nationals (or maybe even before). It was also great to see so many Texans there to represent.

It's really weird now having Nationals behind us. It's like school's out for the summer...Like walking around without a purpose for a while.
