JerryBaumchen 1,371 #3 March 26, 2014 Hi 3331, I never met Dave but saw a lot of him in various PARACHUTIST magazines over the years as he was a serious competitor back in the day. Dave 'finally' made the US Team in 1969 and they competed in some type of international event down in Mexico. It was a complete cluster-f*** and Dave ended up with Montezuma's Revenge and could not compete in the events. JerryBaumchen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not too shabby. Pretty impressive in fact. What year were you on the US team Jerry Baumchen????? Also, when he was at the PanAmerican Cup in Mexico, you are wrong, he did compete. Even if he did have montezumas revenge.
