Easy solution to that problem - attach a $5 bill to your container and place it in front of a packer along with a big bottle of cold water (or a can of Red Bull...). pull and flare,

Oooohhhh, attaching a $5 bill to my rig is a good idea.
But I dunno, I don't care to jump other peoples pack jobs when I do video. They need to design some kind of A/C packet or something like that. That would be nice.
Yeah I do feel really bad for people in AZ.
But its all worth it when you get to altitude.
What's wrong with seattle?? Rain??
Even knowing it's only going to be around 102 F.
I still miss spring.

The forecast this weekend here (St. Louis) is for 80 degrees, slight breeze, clear skies.........
No complaints here!!! (Just got back from 2 bonus Friday jumps!!!)
Blue skies (like mine) to all,

Okay, maybe I shouldn't brag... This is one of the few perfect weekends we will have all year. This spring was very windy. This past winter no one jumped because the snow started to melt, then refroze as a sheet of ice....
But tomorrow looks good and that is all that counts today!!!

But it is so much better to fly canopie in.
Yeah tomarrow is looking great as to business.

Crap, all of yall should come to Texas. It's supposed to be something like 140 F with 300% humidity this weekend. I walk up to the packing area and just look at people packing and instantly burst into a very heavy sweat. Hey, the heat even makes the farts on the plane smell better, this is truely life.

Sunday afternoon, June 24th. 55 degrees and raining here in Vancouver, Washington......shit! Taking the kids to St Louis Tuesday for a weeks vacation, gonna bring my rig and maybe experience jumping in the summer :)

Eh, you Noth Texas folks are a bunch of ninnies. Why here in Houston it's 500 F with 800% humidity. We have to wear asbestos jumpsuits because our rigs keep bursting into flames in freefall. The turn & tracks on the 10-ways look pretty cool from the ground though.

Blue Skies!
