The point is to have fun, but you can't have fun if it can't be planned safely.



Au contraire, your lovliness......I think our jumps were planned VERY carefully and thoroughly, and I felt as safe on those as I do on 4-ways. It's just that us low-timers move more cautiously, which means more slowly, which means......ooooops, breakoff, we're out of time. There was enough skill there to do 13- or 14-ways all day long, but the spirit was to include everyone who wanted to jump.

We didn't get it, but i had a blast, and learned a hell of a lot. :)

:)everyone should get "in on the fun." With how little I've been skydiving, I shouldn't get on any fun whatsoever!

But, Billvon is planning this, so I know I can trust his judgment! :)

Hey SkyBytch,

I'd love to be on the attempt. I may have to actually work that weekend though (imagine that), since I am coming down to get you hammered this weekend and won't be at my home DZ next weekend for mommy's day... but I will let you know. If you guys do it on a Thursday, Friday or Monday I may be able to make it.

do you think you'll be comfortable on a 12 way? [Sly]



12 way? Yes. 12+ way? Probably not. I've attempted 10-12 a few times, got 9 twice, but if it gets too much bigger, you'll find me hangin' onto the skyvan bar with Lummy and Michelle. ;) Count me in if it stays 12-15, otherwise I'm out.

Probably not. Monday will be a big day for hangovers and a lot of people will be leaving that day too. Saturday or Sunday will work better for most people I think.

Other weekdays are out too because most folks can only take the three day weekend (sorry NoShit... :().

Amen - I was on one of those. It's bad when the dive looks scarier from the ground than it does in the air [:/]



Ummm....if you are talking about Eloy jumps.....well lets just say it was a day where a lot of people learned thier limits. [:/]
Fly it like you stole it!

This is also why there will be groups with Airspeed working on 4-6-8 ways at this years Holiday Boogie. Then maybe it can build, but more on that later....

I was referring to a 28-way at Z-Hills. Same stuff different place. When there's no formation, which way do you turn and track? In our case it turned out to be nearly everyone in the same direction :o No one was hurt and lessons were learned B|

No fighting allowed at DZ.com invasions! Maybe we'll both shoot it, cause it's definitely going to be in the DZ.Perris'03 video!

Lurkers! If you're on the fence, get off and buy a plane ticket!

Well if you two care to stop rolling on the ground with each other maybe one or two of you can film it. If not, I plan to have the cam helmet in effect so I can always be a tertiary camera dude.:D If you two work it out then I'll be happy to let you fire wire my "inside" footage for that "total" feel of the dive look;):D
