Skyrose7 0 #1 November 25, 2002 Since I got 5 jumps today, I am up to 199 jumps. It is very doubtful that I will get to jump again before Eloy, seeing how it is now snowstorming and it was a suprise I got to jump at all today.. So, my first jump in Eloy will also be my 200th. yeeeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaawww! Someone wanna do a fun jump? any ideas?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open.

Kris 0 #2 November 25, 2002 Oh the possibilities!Count me in on that one. For my 200th, I went out of the back of a tailgate with a giant inflatable whale but I don't know how much of a love for marine life you have.How about a magic-carpet or a hybrid? If you haven't done a magic-carpet, it's definitely a must-do. Kris Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skyrose7 0 #4 November 25, 2002 I haven't done either of those! sounds like fun. I will be the willing, naive one that will do whatever.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP. MaryRose Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #5 November 25, 2002 You might also check on a balloon jump. That would be memorable for #200. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skyrose7 0 #6 November 25, 2002 oohh, but what kind of altitude can you get from those? I would want to do something on the jump crazy.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP. MaryRose Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #7 November 25, 2002 Quote what kind of altitude can you get from those? I would say they average around 5000Ft. I have known people that have gotten 7K after a 4 way left at 4500. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skyrose7 0 #8 November 25, 2002 oohh, well, that sounds like fun then. oh, so much fun will be had at eloy.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP. MaryRose Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mouth 0 #12 November 25, 2002 Mary, Count me in for whatever you come up with. I did a hybrid for my 200 (Watcher's 100) that fell apart when the two guys standing weren't together. The video is so funny. There was also a storm coming that you can see in the background....very wicked!

AggieDave 6 #14 November 25, 2002 Right on! As it works out, I may be doing my 300th then too. I'm not real sure, though, since I don't have that many more jumps to go and we still have a few weekends. What ever you plan, let me know, if possible I'd like to be apart of it.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

AggieDave 6 #17 November 25, 2002 Ok, I was wondering about that! You seem to be a cool guy and all, but I was wondering what you "learned" in the Air Force...It'd be cool to see if we could line up some of the milestone jumps and do them all together. Maybe a hybrid or something. --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skyrose7 0 #18 November 25, 2002 wow, sounds like everyone is going to have a milestone jump! I say we all do something fun. hmm. original idea. I can't wait to jump with all of you.
