Y'all are taking skydiving to a new level! And not just women's skydiving, but the whole damn sport. Go out there and kick some butt, and special vibes to any Byron chicks because they were my inspiration when I still doing AFF wearing GravityGirl's pink jumpsuit

I think you sum it up pretty well in your post. These people are kickass skydivers, the even cooler part is they are kickass women skydivers!
I can't wait to be even half as good as these women someday, as you said, 'I wanna be like all of you when I grow up!' They are all such an inspiration, rock on girls
