drewboo 0 #44 September 7, 2003 You wore a huge Dinosaur jumpsuit..to do RW cause it would slow ya down. Going vertical to cross over a formation meant ya screwed up. You didn't eat for two days before the weekend because ya didn't want to go low. A water jump meant just that...ya had to take a landing in the middle of a lake to get your "D". "Blocks" didn't exist in the dive pool. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
