thirdworld19 0 #34 May 4, 2008 I have three, that I know of. (This is supposed to be funny because I am a woman last I checked). 14, 11, and 9 They saw my first tandem and wanted to go right away. If any of you are old enough to remember the movie Breakfast Club, the nerd has a fake ID - why? Well to vote of course. My kids all want fake ID so they can jump.

freeflyimpaired 0 #36 May 5, 2008 Expecting my first Aug 19th. (ruined my plans for couchfreaks but thats a small price to pay) I'm excited about being a dad, can't wait to hold her for the first time. I don't see this changing the way I view the sport other than cutting into my skydiving budget a bit but I have no plans on quiting the sport.

JohnDeere 0 #37 May 6, 2008 I have 3 girls2, 3, and 11. I'm 29. My wife dont jump and didnt care for me jumping at first, but i told her it wasnt an option. I try to jump every friday, and if not then every other for sure. But i would not trade anything in the world for my girls (except maybe my wife). Just dont forget what you have waiting for you at home. It is more important than anything you can find on a DZ!!!!!! Nothing opens like a Deere! You ignorant fool! Checks are for workers!

fasted3 0 #40 May 19, 2008 2 boys and 1 girl. She is the youngest at 26 and a jumper too. We have had some super 2 ways together, but the best was watching her do a front flip on a tracking dive. It was her first time tracking, and she nailed it. Do I sound like a proud daddy? You bet I am. But what do I know? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
