Weekend numbers?

Recommended Posts

1/2:2:0
I had a decent weekend. Got to the DZ about 1245 Saturday afternoon and did two jumps. One with NWS01(Nathan) I watched him attempt to sit fly!!!! I had fun chasing him....:)The other one was a very nice HD with Jenn. The flower launched awesome even though I had to muscle her down to keep her level with me. Hardly any rotation!!! Got worse when I let go of her.....She threw her arms and legs out. Obviously forgetting that I outweigh her by about 80-90 lbs. So, after a short try at slowing down I trans to a sit and we geeked each other and flew around in circles till break off. What Fun!!! :)Didn't jump on Sunday cause the wind was howling. We even shut the plane down for a little while in the afternoon when the winds really picked up.
Almost forgot!! The 1/2 number is because I ordered a Free Fly suit Sunday night so I got to have Caryn grope me for about 20 minutes taking all the measurements. She kept making me hold the tape for some of those leg measurements........:)"I only have 133 jumps, so I don't know shit..right?"-Clay

Fogged in Saturday morning, finally burned off about noon and I went to the dz. Did one solo working on transitions; went up to do another and Kevin and Kevin (really!) asked me in the plane if I wanted to join them and do a three way. Took a sit train off the Super Otter, then sat around and geeked each other. Loads of fun.
It rained all day Sunday... figures... $15 jump weekend and the weather gods conspired against us...
pull and flare,

No nookie, no jumps, one hell of a party.
My boss gives me this invite to a party his brother in law throws every year in Indiana. I figure, what the hell, it can't be that bad.
The single most interesting part of the night was discovering the girl I was hitting on was actually my bosses neice. The panick quickly dispersed when he was actually encouraging me to hit on her. Then it was just weird.
There's a bunch of even more interesting stories that I'm NOT posting on the internet.
Anyways, we drank until 4:00am, crashed on a sofa, managed to get home by noon the next day.
This guys house was friggin huge. There must've been 35 of us at breakfast the next day. As far as I know I was the only guy that didn't crash on an actual bed.

I don't really keep track of the first number. I did make two jumps from the Porter yesterday, both were sits. The first just a 2-way, and the second a 5-way (at least that was the plan).
The winds were howling too badly for my student pilot, but the winds were below 20 knots up in Rome, so I got in a couple of jumps.
