kallend 2,106 #27 December 1, 2003 Quote Quote 2 RW jumps with Rook! Whaaaaat? Rook? RW???? Was this a dream you just awoke from? Rook, doing RW? Rook is an excellent RW skydiver. He has Nationals gold and silver medals in RW.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkymonkeyONE 4 #31 December 1, 2003 Plenty:7:0 Well, I guess I should have bought beer for my first jumps at Monroe, but it was Sunday and they don't sell beer in Georgia on that day. Oh well, next time Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
selbbub78 0 #32 December 1, 2003 0:6: losing count So i'm counting 6, as from Thursday on.. 2 on thanksgiving, landed my FIRST tri-plane; 4 jumps on sunday, jumped a lightning (it's great) for the first time, a great off DZ landing (landed on 2nd base of a baseball field) when the winds pushed us away from the DZ... Great weekend thanks to the CReW dogs for taking me up with them"Women fake orgasms - men fake whole relationships" – Sharon Stone "The world is my dropzone" (wise crewdog quote) "The light dims, until full darkness pierces into the world."-KDM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #33 December 1, 2003 Lost count:10:0 A fairly uneventful weekend, had a good time though. I'm really really proud of my girlfriend, though, she did her first 2 AFF jumps after her working tandems (tandem transisiton/ISP) this weekend. She's doing great!--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanuckInUSA 0 #34 December 1, 2003 0:10:1 No humps ... Ten jumps ... Beer owed for having to land in the airplane instead of jumping (because of squirelly winds) for the time. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #35 December 1, 2003 I don't know what you are talking about... 5 great days:3:1 Had an absolutly wonderful weekend starting on Wednesday afternoon when I cut out of work early to fix a nice dinner to wrapping up with a day of jumping yesterday. Who would have thought that we would be flying the Super Otter with almost full loads at this time of the year in Ohio? I did a 8 way RW that turned about 5 points and then tried an 8 way that only built to 1.5 points. Billy Webber was a surprize at the DZ and organized for us on Sunday. Third jump was filming JadedLady in a sitfly.

Dagny 0 #37 December 1, 2003 0:3:plenty Made the drive over to Zhills for the first time with Stacy and absolutely loved the DZ! Just wasn't loving tent life in the cold weather. Never had to jump with layers of clothes and gloves before. This is Florida, right? I'd just like to say to Aviatrr, The111, eeneR, Stacy, and Galen that you all rock! Thanks for some insane belly flying with the new girl. (I know I'm chaos in the air, but it kept me laughing!) And, Stacy, thanks for putting up with me sleeping the entire way home.

Deuce 1 #38 December 1, 2003 Worked all weekend out of the Cessna and did some RW out of it too. Got 16 points on a 3 way from 10 grand that was pretty cool. Flew my Skyflyer 3 for the first time and fell off a plane for the first time. I got pictures in the "I fell off the plane" thread if anybody needs a laugh at my expense Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TaeKwonDoDo 0 #40 December 1, 2003 3:0:0 3 Kick-ass days snowboarding with my kids at Tahoe. Fell hard only once - and almost snapped my leg in half...and now my collar bone hurts like a MF. Also, traffic back to the bay area was a bitch. I was hoping to get a jump in or two yesterday with my #2 daughter, but the weather was just sucky. - Jeff "That's not flying, it's falling with style."

freeflygoddess 0 #41 December 1, 2003 :6:I am not claiming any firsts.... I did 2 free fly jumps at Coolidge on Saturday with Todd...awe...then did a practice jump for Marc's memeorial jump...ugh belly work...then did the actual jump, I was unable to make it to land at the site, so landed at the DZ.... Then on Sunday we went to Eloy and I made a jump with Todd, my presecond jump out of a skyvan...I must say that I do like the left front seat...hehehehehe....Then my actual second jump was a raft dive, with Gabe and BB and my self riding inside...I must say that I was very scared but it was very fun!

jumperconway 0 #42 December 1, 2003 almost as much as I wanted;11;0 Visited my sweety in Austin and we jumped San Marcos (slow) all weekend. No beer because I decided that my 79' Xaos 27 was NOT the best canopy to try out the Birdman with a little h/o from friday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
