I owe beer...

Recommended Posts

Yes, I admit it.... I owe beer! What for? Well, since you asked... ;)

Did my first ever four way freefly jump today! It rocked! Jumped with my coworkers Blue, Steve and Keely. We took a four way sit train off the Otter, which flew well for a second then kinda fell apart. They all ended up low and away from me... and I managed to sit and stand and slide my way over to them and stay with them in the sit until break off! Wooo Hooo!!! :)pull and flare,

Does'nt that kinda mean the same as you are a floaty little

I'll take that as a compliment! rofl
I think it was more cuz I got kicked off the train first and they fell faster than I did til it broke up. Once we were all in the same section of sky the smallest of us (Keely) was the lowest... explain THAT one!

explain THAT one

Same way I explain being able to fly my 180 pound, 6'2" body in a sit with some belly flyers..... A lot of luck and a little skill ;)
Actually..... its all surface area vs mass. I can float with Uma, a 5'4" girl thats maybe 115 lbs in a sit (127 on the protrack), but I can't catch Wildblue and his 6' 0" 210 lb head down. (I've caught him one or twice with the protracks reading an average of 215 for the dive :)I want to touch the sky, I want to fly so high ~ Sonique

I feel your pain!!! I tried to stay with two differen't sit fly bases this weekend and it just wasn't heppening. However, on one of them I did flip into a sit and dock on someone. The video was freakin amazing. Right after the flower broke I was probably 50 Ft out and as soon as jerky corked within 2-3 seconds I'm in the middle docking. I was impressed with myself!!!!!!! :)"Houston? That place is full of Crack heads and debutantes."- Hank Hill

No sex because my hubby's out of town, so I went to Eloy and made my first balloon jump and my first (plus six more) freefly jump. If you want to learn to freefly, go get some coach jumps at Eloy. They rock! Woohoo! You'd think, living in Albuquerque (the balloon capitol of the world), that I'd have a balloon jump by now...nope! Had to go to Eloy to do it!
