sasteve 0 #1 January 14, 2003 South African Steve took his wife Maria on a tandem jump out of the DC-3 at Lost Prairie Boogie. The jump was significant for both of them as it was 23rd of July and Maria`s 40th Birthday. She couldn`t jump on her own because of a shoulder injury suffered in freefall with a spinning AFF student(which required surgery). For Steve it was 35 years since his first jump (20th July 1967) also out of a DC-3 in the South African Airborne(from 600ft!) What a BLAST! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sasteve 0 #8 January 17, 2003 Hi Byron & Kasey, Good to hear from y`all! Maria and I really miss you guys and the DZ too. Tried to e-mail you, but got bounced back from Kasey`s address. Please confirm receipt of this e-mail, as there is no address in your profile. `Skies, Steve`n Maria Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sangiro 25 #9 January 24, 2003 So Steve.... kan jy nog so bietjie die taal gooi of is jy al heeltemal vervreem? Baie geluk met die herdenkings-sprong! Safe swoops Sangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sasteve 0 #10 January 31, 2003 Ja jonge, ik kan die taal nog praten, maar miskien is dit `n bietje opgefok je weet want mijn vrouw is van Nederland en wij praten meer van Nederlands as Afrikaans! Maar ik kannie kla nie, kannie kak nie. Je weet dat wij ons DZ in Colorado verkocht hebben? En nu zitten wij hier in Eloy vir die winter. Lekker warm, vandag is omtrent 80 dg! Blue Skies & warmth, SASteve(actually, African-American Steve by now!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
