Jeth 0 #27 July 23, 2007 I'm not doing so well. But hey - I'm alive, uninjured, and having fun, so I can't complain about that. Mine were.... 1. Do at least 100 jumps. Due to crappy weather and a June vacation I've only done 42 so far this year. But I'm still hoping to get there... 2. Get on a 4-way team to improve skills and have jump buddies. Well we did get a team together, but we haven't been able to get 2 other reliable people. We have not jumped together enough to go to any meets, which is a bummer. But I do think I have improved my skills just consistently doing 4-way or 2-way drill dives, so thats good. But I wish the team would've worked out better. 3. Go to a new dz Not yet. But we are still saying we'll go to Hinckley one weekend this season. 4. Learn to sitfly Not yet. But I think next time my teammates are late I will take the opportunity to go out and do a solo and give it a whirl. I am hoping the weather for the rest of the season cooperates. And I've still got Summerfest to look forward to, woo-hoo!!! "At 13,000 feet nothing else matters." PFRX!!!!!

DrewEckhardt 0 #28 July 23, 2007 Quotethe year is half over. how is everyone doing on thier skydiving goals? i couldn't find the 07 skydiving goals post for refrence. if someone could and make it clicky, i'd much appreciate it. I aimed to be no worse at freeflying and swooping than before I moved some place with more frequent cloud cover and failed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lastchance 0 #31 July 24, 2007 I have not gotten as many jumps in as I would like but am doing alright. But as of last week my wife and I bought the houses and property that we have rented for 8 yrs. Triple the payment. That may cut me back some but its not going to stop me. I did get a good compliment from the instructor that taught me this weekend. He called me dedicated and said I jump more than anybody he knows that has to drive as far as I do. Thanks Hod. Skydive Montana always make me feel at home. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
