tombuch 0 #28 January 4, 2008 QuoteQuote"Having a blast on every jump is more important than achieving a task in every jump" I've never heard that one before. I think it's nice. One of the discussion points I use when teaching skydiving actually came from teaching snowboarding. It goes like this: The whole point of skydiving is to have fun. If you are having more fun than anybody else, you are the best skydiver!Tom Buchanan Instructor Emeritus Comm Pilot MSEL,G Author: JUMP!

ZigZagMarquis 9 #37 January 4, 2008 The variant on your 2nd one there that I always heard was, "Keep pulling handles until blood fills your goggles." Kinda along the same lines... "If your main doesn't work, cut-away and pull your reserve. If your reserve doesn't work, walk towards the light." ... and I can't believe no one has posted this yet...

diablopilot 2 #46 January 5, 2008 "Slack Valley is that-ta-away." "Don't fuck up." "if you're gonna go low, take someone with ya." DZO/Jump pilot as the exit is called "Sorry guys, didn't quite get to 13,000, so you have my permission to make up the freefall on the bottom end." "That guy's not even stable!" Newer jumper after seeing my video of Craig G. taking a dock on a 30+ way in a solid knee fly. "Look ma, the airplane is pooping people!" Wuffo 6 year old. "It wasn't us, honest." Anonymous, the morning after the Boogie Party. "Who's that guy think he is? King of the geeks?" Dan Smith, after hearing another jumper tell a group how things were going to be done, since he had won a gold medal at Nationals. "What the fuck was THAT?" Me after narrowly escaping being caught up in an 80 way funnel on a 120 way attempt. "FUCK!" Me as main side JM after getting punched in the face by an AFF student deploying their pilotchute. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
