Luv2Fall 0 #26 August 25, 2003 Pretty decent...........jumped from a Porter for the first time (BEER).....prop blast was pretty decent LOL. My first Mindwarp (BEER) arrived Saturday. Sunday, did my first (BEER) two-way relativity "drill" with another fast faller - 180's, 360's, etc. That, so far, is the most fun I've ever experience from a jump.

Harksaw 0 #27 August 25, 2003 Hung out at the DZ on Saturday, but Sunday it was too cloudy so everyone left. It cleared up in about two hours (naturally) and I went with a friend of mine to a dam nere here where everyone hangs out.... I did the scariest thing i have ever done.. There is a rope swing there that if you let go at the peak, you are at least 45 feet off the water. Scared the shit out of me!!__________________________________________________ I started skydiving for the money and the chicks. Oh, wait. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rehmwa 2 #28 August 25, 2003 Great weekend. 14 jumps from Frid - windy and bumpy all weekend. got to coach Mantis with 2 new jumpers. One was absolutely fantastics. Some freeflying. The wife did her first headdown. Jump 2000 on Sunday with my 4-way team - not bad, 25 points and our point man, a great friend made it. We haven't practice with him for 2 months. 4-way all day Sunday. The pies were only whipped cream (thankfully not baked beans, dogfood, or creamed corn), but administered by 6 beautiful women skydivers. I needed a shower mid day on Sunday anyway, it was hot and humid That's a good weekend. ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bkdice 0 #29 August 25, 2003 My love, Jonathan, and I bought a house and the home inspection went great on Friday. Pic of new house attached (more at http://www.ofoto.com/I.jsp?c=19iajubf.bgc5rrlj&x=1&y=-89i3r9 if you really wanted to see) Took the rest of the day off to spend with my sister, who got married Sat. Wedding consisted mostly of Skydive Virginia people. (pic of bride and groom attached too). What a blast! Sunday was spent jumping on a beautiful, clear, and not to hot a day. Awesome weekend. Bummed it's Monday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saturday: 300km drive for a jump, a car crash...(I'm one lucky bastard) 2 beers and a couple of votka's at evening... Sunday: Drunk... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unstable 9 #32 August 25, 2003 Their little jumper-in-tow experiment??? Didn't work, but it was fun to watch. KansasSkydiver held on for about 1 second then was ripped off, then Justin tried it on a spur of the moment, and he didn't make it either. They couldn't make the transition smoothly from the step to hanging from the first knot on the rope. BLue ones, sds=========Shaun ========== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
