Deuce 1 #101 May 31, 2003 Plenty, Andrea, and lots of local divas too. But pack your bumper-suit. You're coming too far, and there's too much fun to be had doing speedstars and BFR's and hybrids to limit your skydiving vacation just to VRW. Somewhere in there doing raft dives, and campfires, and greased safes etc, you might want to turn a point or two, or be base for a change in a hybrid.

Deuce 1 #113 June 2, 2003 Since I can't jump til next weekend I took a motorcycle ride out to Byron to drop of some pictures and then rode up to Davis just to mess with the smart JP. I talked with Neal while jp was on the ride to alti about what's happening what days. First, you can set your tent up on the grass. There is an area fenced off for tents, but that's not going to be enforced during the boogie. So, starting Thursday morning, we'll be able to pitch tents on the lawn. Sushi night is Friday. They've got a mobile sushi kitchen and everybody gets a Sushi-box. If'n you want more, you can buy more. Free Beer every night. Surf's Up! Friday night is also going to be night jumps. This is with a light cart like the road crews use to repair the freeway at night. Night freefall, fully lit landing. If you are putting off your D license because of night jumps, this is a great way to do it. Saturday night is the luau. Giant roasted pig. They're also talking about doing formation loads on at least one of the days out of Skydance's two Caravans. Betsy's Skyvan will be there too. I'm definitely huffing on Davis cause I only got three jumps at Perris, but this should be a really good time. JP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, they took those rope lights and traced a giant arrow to show which direction to land... Very cool to watch, but I think I'll have to do a few this year. I wanna hang too JP, please please OH please can I hang?I promise not to TP Davis under canopy..

Oh, you don't know how relieved I am to read that! I might actually live through these night jumps after all.

BoobieCootie 0 #116 June 2, 2003 Aaarrrggggghhhh!!!! It's a conspiracy I tell you. Freakin' INS got to schedule my finger printing on June 28 Right in the middle of the American Boogie and the only day helicopter jumps are offered. Yeah yeah... I'm sure they've got my best interest at heart. Helping me curb my spending now that I'm not collecting a paycheck every 2 weeks. Blah blah. Ok.

lummy 4 #118 June 2, 2003 Yeah, they have a pretty good setup for it. If'n you need some night jumps, this is the time to do em. Last year, they ran 5 or 6 loads IIRC. the HARDEST part is seeing everyone else with a beer cup and having to abstain ;)I promise not to TP Davis under canopy..

skymama 37 #120 June 2, 2003 Quotethe HARDEST part is seeing everyone else with a beer cup and having to abstain ;) Yeah, no kidding! Any idea how long they wait before they start doing the night jumps? Like, is it right after sunset? *Raising hand* I wanna do a hybrid jump! Even if I just hang on the outside, I'm stable, just ask Chopchop.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deuce 1 #121 June 2, 2003 Look! The party light is lit! Everybody who can do a stable stand can hang. Heck we can even have some dedicated funnel loads for people to see what they are up against. IMPORTANT! The gnarliest freeflyers have to approach a hybrid base on their belly's, unless they launch linked in the base. And if the exit funnels, they have to fly back into their slot. So never give up on your belly flying! Lum. Yes I will be jumping Sunday. And I am scheduled to be hosting a VERY SPECIAL GUEST. So start guessing! What famous DZ.commer will be my guest at Byron this Sunday? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lummy 4 #122 June 2, 2003 hey, I know I'm special, but REALLY , you don't have to go through all the trouble JP ;) I've hung before, n I'm stable in a stand..
