Shitty weather made for interesting hop and pops.
Never underestimate the boredness of freefliers and what we can do from 4000'. Hanging from knees off wing and taking right hand grip with guy on the wheel makes for a interesting 2 way.:D In the end.....

0:2:1 (frist knee hang off Cessna)

5 soccer games:0:0

No skydiving, it was the last soccer tournament weekend. Our team won! B| My son didn't get to play much because he has a sore back. He only went in for a few minutes in each game before it would give out. In the final game today, he scored the only goal of the game for either side. Pretty good for a guy who usually plays sweeper! Yes, I'm a proud soccermama today. :)

1 shot of a red-headed slut did me in. Damn I'm a lightweight.

I am coming out of my shell a little more at the dropzone. I'm not being so introverted quite as much as I used to be.

Was at the dropzone the whole weekend and the clouds just did not want to cooperate with me. Finally about mid-afternoon on Sunday I finally got to jump! YAY!

I did my first jump out of the casa. It also happened to be my first 4-way! WHOOP! I got my Falcon award on that jump!

Then I did a solo out of the casa. Worked on my front and back loops.

Did my first speed star on my last jump of the day. I was the base because I fall like a freaking rock. That was sooo much fun. I absolutely loved it!

I would like to say right now that Tami Carbone ROCKS! She is helping me so much in becoming a better skydiver. I had so much fun jumping with her yesterday! You're the best Tami!
I'm so funny I crack my head open!

The 3 being:

1 really bad ground strike under canopy that would have busted me up pretty bad if I hadn't done a very solid PLF.
1 bruised ego.
1 pained pride.

But tattered ego and pride won't keep me from jumping again next weekend ;)

17 jumps (includes Thursday)
First time I did my 1000th jump and first time I turned 6 points on a 16 way (those were on the same jump so only one case is owed :P)
First time I've missed my flight home cuz I was having too much fun. :D

I'm a good boy :):3:1

Drove 600 miles round trip on the Ducati Supersport to SDC (the first). Convinced friend/co-worker to ride her Yamaha FZ1 600 miles round trip as well to meet me there for her first 2 tandems. 'Hey Mikey, I think she likes it!'

Eener got to experience that bike as a passenger - that thing is bejezuz fast - especially with that particular friend/co-worker as the operator. My first ride on back of it, all I could think was - to hell with the 620, I want a 999, dammit!

3 more camera jumps added. Time to get some freefly coaching - need many corrections.

Beer for my first hybrid. Looked kinda like that one in the L&B ad in Parachutist, but more rickety.

Beer for being in that hybrid and for taking out a speed star :):P

2 hop and pops, a six way, and a seven way today in between thunder storms. This weather sucks. It could have been 10 jumps. I was at the DZ for 10 hours.

Beer owed for first jump on my new Sabre 2 and for my first canopy ride in the rain. That Sabre 2 sure packs up easier when it's wet.
