TrickyDicky 0 #29 January 16, 2004 I think I made about 130 or so. But try getting them in in the UK when you are a students with no cash. But 03 was a good year. First rig, first rw, first bombing of 16 way, IC1, fs1, 100 jumps. Lots of beers. UK Skydiver for all your UK skydiving needs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rickfri59 0 #30 January 16, 2004 Quote532 almost all Saturdays and Sundays *** not sure the exact number... but i think about 300 QuoteI think about 800*** ***never,ever,ever under any circumstances take your jump number and multiply it by the cost of a jump ticket.... Holy fuc_, how does everybody jump this much in a year and still afford to eat. An instructor I can understand, but everyone must be selling dope, living at home, be supported by a chicky, or have increadibly good jobs, in which case there wouldn't be time to jump. What's the secret, because I want in Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dougjumper 0 #31 January 16, 2004 Slow Year..for me about 28 or so..Broke both Arms Slowed me down just a Hair...Would of kept jumping if I could figure out how to Steer this Thing...

I tip my hat to you..... skydive softly skydive often skydive with friends jmy No squirelly opening on any of my Xaos'. The only mal I had was a stuck toggle (the brake loop slipped over the grommet on the toggle and jammed). Have never had one hard opening on them either. No real reason for not using an AAD. I keep saying that I'll put them in all my rigs, but I keep finding other things to spend my money on. I edited about 95% of all my videos last year (thank god for real-time editing boards). I packed for about 50% of those. Here's hoping for an even busier 2004! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Food is the first thing to go. You really only need water and a power bar during the day. Then you sell everything that you have that doesn't revolve around jumping. Then you move into the cheapest place that you can find on or across the street from the dropzone. Then you quit school. Ask only for money fro all holidays and sell any gifts you get other then the cash you relly need for skydiving. Are you starting to get the picture?Dom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Prev 1 2 3 4 Next Page 2 of 4 Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
