100th Jump & My Brother's doing a tandem!

Recommended Posts

This is going to be so good. It's my 100th jump this weekend and my brother is going to do a tandem (I got it for him for his Xmas present) so he and i are going to be on the same load. Plus my parents (who don't mind me jumping) and my brothers kids (who really dig that I jump) and my brother's wife (who's insisting that she's not going to watch!) are all going to be there!

Any top tips for winding up one's elder sibling?? Actually I don't think he's nervous but his wife is!!

Cheers! :)
Adam.

Yes!

I will probably end up landing off or something :P.



Dude, that may happen! It happened to soarfree last year - her mom was at the dz for the first time, and she ended up landing 6 miles out!!

Try to get a good spot, no need to give the family extra worries. ;) I hope its a blast! My family will be watching me in July! :)

OMFG! How does that happen? Did she find a "large, open area" to land in?

You can have it good, fast, or cheap: pick two.

Yep, she landed okay in a corn field. It was just a bad spot by the pilot, the whole load landed off. It was the first load of the day so they were human wind-drift indicators. ;)
