Met some wonderful people during the day 2) Made 1st jump at Deland on Sun. on my new rig another 1st. Infinity w/Sabre2 170 Didn't finish flair on 1st jump and rolled it in (1st dirt stains on new container) Stood up next 2 jumps. Again met some great people. 3) Made 1st jump at Z-Hills...Stood all 3 jumps up. Got to jump with old buddy I have not seen or jumped with in 11 yrs...Turned points like we did in 93...Fantastic Once again met some great people here also. all I can say is this weekend was a weekend I will never forget, looks like I need a temp. 2nd job to pay for all the beer 1st's or should I have said pre 2nds -------------------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #2 October 19, 2004 Quote2) Made 1st jump at Deland on Sun. Aw, man. I was there on Sunday. I hate it when I hear people were at the dz at the same time and I didn't get to meet them. Fortunately, I don't remember seeing your landing so I can't tell everyone to tease you about it. She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lucie813 0 #6 October 24, 2004 I'd enjoy hearing about your first balloon jump - I went for my first balloon ride at the beginning of this month! Enjoyed it quite a bit, but it's funny that although I did it before my skydive, it was still too tame! I wanted to go higher and faster! Next month I go for my first biplane ride and am really psyched about that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
