tinfoil 0 #27 June 23, 2006 Quotewas that picture taken in Aussie? Nope, that was jump #31 in Grand Bend, Ontario, Canada. And it is on my wall, my mom was nice enough to frame it and put it where my grade 8 grad picture use to be . “- - Sumo is the greatest of sports. It has power, grace, speed and cluture.

feuergnom 28 #29 June 23, 2006 QuoteQuoteone of mine... That's poetry in motion, even if only for a brief moment more. I hope you have that framed on your wall thanks, now i have coffee all over my screen bwahahahaha! btw: great pic! hope you didn't hurt yourself on that one stupid mistake on my behalf: somewhere around jump 50 i decided it was a good idea that somebody take video of my early freeflying attempts. well it was more "pigs in outer space" or random flying than anything else. when separating i went unstable, opened somewhere 2000 ft and didn't make it back to the dz. wasn't wearing any shoes - jumping barefoot is sooooo coool and had to land off the dz. came in downwind in a freshly mowed field. did i tell you this is unpleasant? lesson learnt: always wear some shoes, cause there are some places where you don't like to walk barefoot The universal aptitude for ineptitude makes any human accomplishment an incredible miracle dudeist skydiver # 666 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
droquette 0 #30 June 23, 2006 I have also had to land out barefoot.. In a field with a bunch of broken bottles... and my buddy swooped the same field as I was landing, he passed by me at about 10'.... But jumping barefoot is still cool to me... Just be carefull where you put your tootsies... Barefoot beach landings are the @#$@#..... Blue Skies.... Don't be Dumb...

Mostly_Harmless 0 #31 June 23, 2006 QuoteLast time I jumped I got distracted by the feelings of the weed tops across my toes. I didn't finish my flare. I was thinking wow this is cool swooping the weedtops. Then Thwack. Nothing hurt just my pride. Need to concentrate more. Actually on the jump before that I was thinking, "Feet and knees together be prepairde to..." Thunk. 3 Lesson learned: CONCENTRATE Non sono molti inteligenti. An AFF student broke his femur on Sunday at SDLI when he didn't flare on his landing._________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
