mouth 0 #1 September 21, 2003 80:5:1 80 days since I broke my arm and was told not to jump anymore. 5 of the best jumps I've had in a long time. One fun 4 way chick way which funneled all to heck but was fun anyway, one lopsided hybrid that we managed to hold anyway, a really cool sit fly which showed me just how much I backslide in a sit, a six way chunk launched out of the king air which was funny to even imagine much less see, and a three way sunset jump that was breathtaking because the skies were amazing. It was absolutely wonderful to be back in the skies. I did purposefully position myself outside the plane on every jump just to make sure there was no repeat performances of the plane biting me on the way out. I bought beer just because I enjoyed myself so damn much, and because it was the first time I have ever forgotten to turn on my cypres. I helped someone else turn theirs on so I remember turning one on...just not mine. I guess I proved you CAN jump without one, but I'd still rather not. I hope everyone else had a much fun as I did this weekend. -- Hot Mama At least you know where you stand even if it is in a pile of shit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jib 0 #7 September 21, 2003 7:4:0 Seven line twists (glad I dumped a little high and had time to kick 'em out), one new jump suit, 4 jumps. I ordered a new suit from Windline and had them rush it (ship in 15 business days); it was at my door in exactly two weeks! Woohoo!

Kris 0 #8 September 21, 2003 Congrats on finally making it back to the sky, Lisa!!! I can't wait to hear you screaming your lungs out in joy from the other side of a formation in freefall again. 1:2:4 1 chop from a Stiletto with a broken suspension line and a blown cell resulting in a freebag/reserve PC that also got tarred & featherd TX style. Sigh. $165 for the freebag & PC and god knows how much for my main to get repaired. 2 kickass jumps. One with Turtlespeed, and one solo with, what I've heard, a kickass exit from the CASA captured on camera by Tony from SSM. 3 cases of beer owed for first (and hopefully last) blown-up canopy, 1st chop at Aggieland, 1st jump on my Tempo reserve, 1st time totalling a reserve freebag & PC.

BoogieBob 0 #15 September 21, 2003 Smirnoff Blue Label:2:0 2 jumps bellydown waiting for what seemed like an eternity to get to 4k so I could pull...kind of boring. The landings, unlike those in my recent past, didn't result in me using a brush to clean my container off. **Sigh** Grapefruit juice with Smirnoff-100 anyone?

Deuce 1 #17 September 21, 2003 That's wonderful Lisa! Good for you for waiting long enough to get yourself better! Me? :11!:0 Only one paid camera jump, a level one on Sunday, but 10 very nice skydives on Saturday, including a nice three way with ChopChop and GFD (That's GirlFallDown, I've decided she'll be GFD from now on while typing, say the long version in your head) 7 big way RW jumps where I did not f*ck up. Big as in 8 to 12 way, not 800 to 1200 way. Congrats again Lisa, I'm so glad you're back. I've attached a picture from the last jump I saw you make. Hope you are wearing that smile again.

indyz 1 #18 September 22, 2003 0:4:0 Two way sit with a heavy guy. We were tight out of the door (unlinked exit), then he was goooooone. A hop 'n pop. A CRW jump, 5 docks, including one totally smooth one by me (best of the weekend, right there). A 3 way headdown. Totally dangerous, totally fast. Edit to add: Totally.

Michele 1 #19 September 22, 2003 1:0:0 One new kitten. "Pumpkin". 3 month old calico short haired, totally adorable. I adopted her about 3 hours ago from the rescue people; she's already spayed. She is starting to make the adjustments (by that, I mean she's finding some really good hiding places). Charlotte and Essie, however, believe the world has ended. What can I say, I felt the need for cuddles. I will post with photos sometime soon...

turtlespeed 221 #21 September 22, 2003 1:4:2:0:1 Great weekend, started Thursday after work...drove out to the DZ and we were all helping to finish setting up for the AOT boogie. A VERY wonderfull person was leaving and asked if we wanted to jump out as he left....I love those free H&P's. 4 jumps on Friday out of the CASA. First and second were solo sits, then I got to Jump with Kris...heh, I gotta get a suit....and the last was a beautiful sunset clear and pull from altitude while I lurked AggieDave and his long time friend Malachi(sp.) as they flew around. Malachi dumped out some streamers...60 ft or so, and that was really cool to watch. 2 jumps on saturday, first was a rw with Kay Choate, great dive. Second was a raft dive. I was sandwiched in the middle of a red headed hottie skychick and DZ.COM's own Brit17. The dive didn't work out all that well. It did have promise, but Murfey must have been on that load too. 0 jumps on Sunday due to rain, but I got to go eat breakfast (read: Lunch) with some friends from SSM and then we went and reviewed all the footage from the boogie that will be used for the boogie tape. And last but not least, 1 SCR ceremony. Yup, ya maggots, I can pour on you now! All in all a fantastic weekend.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Man - that takes a lot of energy! A few coach jumps and a fun jump. Some good dialogue with skr. Jumped one of Eloy's Otters all weekend - very nice.Trapped on the surface of a sphere.
