Recommended Posts

If I was that tandem master a nice swift *THUNK* to the back of the head would fix that issue. :o I can't wait to become a TM. HAHAHA

And Bytch.. that a C-206 Cargo in your pic?

Luckly no pics exist of me on tandems, and only video exists of my student jumps.

Jan, that's a funny photo (made me laugh out loud)...but...but...where're you?B|

Where am I? Here I am! 1 and 2 from the first tandem, taken from video so they aren't very clear--3 from the second, and 4 from my third, also from video. My third and fourth were the most fun. Don't get me wrong, nothing compares to the first skydive, it's just the third and fourth were just FUN!

Edit: Okay they didn't get in the right order. At the door from #1 and skydive1 from #1--second skydive is out we go and third tandem is jandoor

The best video I've seen of Derek's is where this guy tries to sit fly out the door. They exit and Derek's looking over the guys shoulder and sees his pasengers feet sticking strait out in front of both of them.

His thoughts went something like this "Well this is interesting, didn't know an old guy could be so flexible. Hmmm....well might as well throw the drogue since we are stable."

Then for the rest of the skydive the guy kept licking his lips, looked like a dog who just got a chunk of peanut butter.

funnies video I have ever seen.
Fly it like you stole it!

Best one Ive seen with me in it, the camera flyer exited front float on his back and we went over head down in a flower (had an experience jumper on - it was for a rating).

Best tandem video I've ever seen - just before pull time the camera flyer docks and holds on through opening. After the canopy check, he does a very short interview and then falls away. It was from Australia.

How would I get the VHS onto a DVD? Where would I get that sort of thing done?

My boss actually just put my Dad's tandem VHS tape on a DVD. If you want you can mail it to me and I will have him put it on a DVD for you. Or, there may be some place near you that can do it. I'm not too sure.

If you look in the yellow pages under 'Video'. There are places that will transfer VHS tapes to CD or DVD. But shop around, some can be very expensive. When you have it on CD, you can pause any frame and copy it to Paint (or some other program) and print it. You also can take your VHS tape to some photo places and they can make prints from specific frames, if you describe the frames you want prints of clearly enough. That's what I did with my video.

Someone should start a post saying "Who's the hottest tandem master in the sport?!" I swear, why are half of all tandem master's sooo cute! I had such a big crush on mine for so long...LOL! And I've met several hottie tandem masters since!

Ok, let's see, I nominate Patrick O. (Sebastian), Christiaan R. (Elsinore), That guy in Jessd's tandem pic...and I know many others...Oh, and that guy on my website (from Germany who I have a big crush on) has his tandem rating as well! What's up with that anyway?!:$ Who else do you guys know!? LOL!
