I am still waiting, Hey guys it's Blue. Just got the latest report from Ortho Doc. 2 weeks minimum skyboot cast with crutches, then either surgery or rehap. Hope to be jumping by spring. Looks like it will be time to learn to swoop, left foot first.[email]

My last dive of 2002 was a free fly at Eloy on Dec 31st for one of my friend's 400th.

My first dive of 2003 was a tracking dive at Mile-Hi Skydiving in CO on Jan 4th.

Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD

Another reserve ride? Man, those reserves love you.

My first jump of the year was out of a Cessna 182, but I dont remember what I did on the dive.

Do we owe beer for the first dive of the year?

12:30pm January 1st 2003. 3 way horny gorrilla. Break at 4,500. Dump at 3,500. Velocity 111 toggle unstowed (unknown at the time) super spun up spinning malfunction. Chop. Landed next to my free bag and main which where about 50 feet from eachother. What a start to the New Year.

on my third jump of the year, at about the same time of day as you: pulled about 6000 on a velocity 96, spun it up, under open reserve at 4400. also landed next to my freebag. I don't know if I lost a toggle, because I lost the main even though I spent the rest of the day looking for it.

the only thing to dive for me this year is my credit rating.

5 year loan on this here Mac

Accelerate hard to get them looking, then slam on the fronts and rollright beside the car, hanging the back wheel at eye level for a few seconds. Guaranteed reaction- Dave Sonsky

Ahh. Have yet to dive this year... 11th it will be!

It's the year of the Pig.

My first jump this year was actually kinda cool.

I did a 5-way with one of my instructors from my old dz and 3 freeflyers! The dive went....tumble tumble tumble (damn freeflyers just HAD to go headdown....), a smokin' kiss pass, round, confusion, and Cajun coming down to the ground saying "I love this belly flying stuff!"

There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

I managed to do 5 that day before I left for the airport. For the life of me I believe it was Viking's ass in my face the entire dive that I remember. I knew I should have bitten him

I haven't made a jump for nine weeks now.

We have'nt seen the sun on a weekend around here for 9 weeks... do you think we've jumped?

Yep, that sounds about right. I'm with Phree on this one. Winter sucks.

And winter is just playing mean tricks around here Today...sunny high around 50! That'd be great if I didn't work. Saturday...cloudy high around 20. Weather gods hate me.
