skydiverek 63 #1 April 5, 2005 Here in Poland most skydivers say "Ready, Set, Go!", but I heard some say "In, Out!". What other countdowns are there, mainly country-specific? Is it always in English language? USA: "Ready, Set, Go!" Poland: "Ready, Set, Go!", "In, Out!" Please continue the list Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites dreamsville 0 #2 April 5, 2005 We have someone at SDC by the name of Dennis who used to be with a 4-way team. They used to say "bang, boom, pow!" for the exit count. Hence, bangboompow.com. |I don't drink during the day, so I don't know what it is about this airline. I keep falling out the door of the plane.

Common ones I know of: Shake, down, go. Shake, up, down, go. Stomp, down, go. My fave. Shake, stomp, wiggle yer arse, up, down, go. This one is only used by freeflyers launching hybrids. Smartarses .
