Yooper 0 #3 April 21, 2001 You can bet your ass I'll be there. DZ.com jumps sound like a great idea. I can't wait to meet everyone. Peace.Mizhakwit,Chad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alpenglow 0 #4 April 21, 2001 It's out now? I saw some rough edits that my Psycho Circus homeboys put together at Elsinore before it was complete. I'll definitely be at the Q this year. Did that freeway divider swoop make the video?- Macaulay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallnAngel 0 #5 April 21, 2001 Hubby & I would really like to go to Quincy, but...how experienced do you need to be, do you think? I have my A, and ~45 jumps right now, but have never jumped away from my home dz. Is it a good idea to have more experience with bigger groups in the sky, landing different places, etc.? What do you guys think?? Blues,Karen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
decorous 0 #6 April 21, 2001 I was in the same boat last year with only around 70 jumps before Quincy. I was concerned, But had no problem with the amount of people. however, it is something to be cautious about. As long as you are safe and use good judgement then you should not have a problem, I think the minimum requirement is 50 jumps or the equivilent of a B license. I hope to see everyone there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggie 0 #7 April 21, 2001 fallnangel.D is right, the minimum is 50 jumps. I know cause i was told to get my ass on a lot of loads so that im Quincy eligible this year :) As much as I would love to go... I heard stories of last year. Crazy amounts of skydivers (6,500+) and aircraft.... It seems like sooo much. Im not sure if i would be ready for that without many jumps. I dont consider 50 the magical number for quincy. I consider my level of comfortableness in the weeks before to be my judgement. but in any case, if im ready, you can bet your ass that ill be there! whoo hee. Big Daddy Walt is taking the RV out there again.. sounds like it would be amazing :)froggie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yooper 0 #8 April 21, 2001 Hey, while we're all down there we should all get together some night and party it up. Even if we don't get to do any DZ.com jumps, due to varying experience levels, choice of dicipline or whatever, I would still love to meet everyone. What do yall think?Mizhakwit,ChadBTW, how are we gonna recognize each other? I vote for Giant Sombreros with your DZ.com handle painted on the front. Just a suggestion.

mountainman 0 #9 April 21, 2001 I don't know, you may run into some of those Crazy Rodriguez brothers with the sombreros and get confused! I would say everyone opt for some neon colored T-shirt with handwritten dz.com. That would be pretty sweet! BTW, is there anyone here who is a Rodriguez Bro??? Thanks folks!NEW AND IMPROVED!!!http://home.woh.rr.com/brandonandlaura/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
