Sebazz1 2 #2 February 1, 2002 Lisa I am planning on comming down to Elsinore for a batchelor party weekend thingy first weekend of March. Can you hold off till then? Can Steve(SBS) remeber how to fly on his belly?Why did you land downwind? The winds were blowing the wrong way........Seb Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lazerq3 0 #3 February 1, 2002 Hey!!! I'm either coming down on the 16th or 23rd to elsinore. So i may be able to join you all!!!!! jason Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albatross 0 #4 February 2, 2002 Doubt that I can do the 23/24th of Feb due to team training But most of the people one the team are DZ.com folk. Maybe we can make the Sunset load that weekend and all get on. As for SBS getting on his belly. No one said it had to be all belly RW could he dockin a sit if he can slow down enough.God bless us and God Bless AmericaAlbatross Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diver123 0 #5 February 2, 2002 I'd be more than happy to help the record in it's relocation efforts! However, I've never been in a belly fly with more than 5 people... That's the bad news. The good news is, Elsinore is my home DZ and that's plenty of time to get a couple practice jumps in... Anyone willing to teach me some moderately advanced belly skills so I can pull this off? "pull high! It's lower than you think..." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybytch 273 #9 February 2, 2002 The date is flexible - the only weekend that is totally out is Feb. 16-17 because Linda (hotamaly) will be in Eloy judging the Valentine's Meet. Jason, if we do it the weekend of the 23rd you're in there - how long are you planning to be down here? Seb, we'd LOVE to have you too if it ends up being that weekend - Steve (SBS) has been in a belly 10 way before so I think we can keep him stable enough to make this happen.... Albatross, could you guys dedicate an afternoon to it? May take us more than one attempt... diver, get with Linda this weekend at Elsinore; she's organizing at least one day and she'll be the one organizing the dive for us. This is gonna be fun! pull and flare,lisa--What would Scooby Doo? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 273 #10 February 2, 2002 We were hoping you'd say that Paul! And yep, danl, you're welcome too - one post is all it takes...pull and flare,lisa--What would Scooby Doo? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lazerq3 0 #11 February 2, 2002 QuoteJason, if we do it the weekend of the 23rd you're in there - how long are you planning to be down here? Well right now I only planned to jump on saturday, and then leave on sunday. this is like a drive there, jump my ass off, and drive back type of trip for me but I'll see what I can do!!! I'll let you know when the time gets a little closer, but I may have to go on the 16th, but if thats the case maybe I can still jump with some of you even if it isnt a record!! I'd be stoked just to meet some of you all!! I've been on an attempted 12 way , a 9 way, and couple of 8 ways so I feel ! pretty comfortable about it.jason Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
