freeryde13 0 #1 January 20, 2004 i live in nyc. i just started diving last summer and have 35 jumps right now. the number is so low because of wether, and the long ride to pa where i did aff. most of my jumps i did in 2 weekend trips to florida. i'm looking for nyc divers to ride together to local dzs, and sare travel expences and just hng out and shot the shit in between jumps. no one i know skydives r really wants to.( stuborn ass bikers man). i'm hooked though. leave e-mail or phone numbers or whatever. ...lets hook up and do this. p.s. just had to share this. i just came back from a weekend at deland that was off the fukin hook. did a running supper man jump out of a caravan and a 2 way head down from 15,700 that we hit 198 mph. ....man i love this._________________________________________ people see me as a challenge to their balance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tombuch 0 #5 January 20, 2004 Check out The Ranch at http://ranchskydive.com/. It's a really fun DZ with year round jumping. In the summer we fly 3 Twin Otters. In the winter we fly an Otter on busy weekends, and a Cessna 182 when there are just a few folks around. If you can stand some cold weather skydiving, come visit us!

freeryde13 0 #10 January 21, 2004 i tried the crosskeys buliten board and can't figure out how to create an identity to make a post. ....... i definately plan on checking out the ranch[ maybe this weekend], crosskeys, and skys the limit. any one that wants to go anywhere from nyc, we'll rent a car...i can get them cheap, or whatever. i've got an old hoopdee car, but i'm not sure it's highway worthy at this time._________________________________________ people see me as a challenge to their balance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murps2000 86 #11 January 21, 2004 Sean. Don't know if you ever got my name, but I think I met you when you did level 1, since I knew Gindy & Peg already, and they came up that day. Like around July 4th, right? You had that cool shirt that said "All my heroes killed cowboys". I did tandems at C-burg, and I remember talking with you a couple times as you went thru AFF & licensing. You drove down (in an ElCo?) & got weathered out once or twice, if I remember correctly. You asked me once what was the worst thing that could happen to you while skydiving (referring to malfunctions, of course), and I think we never really finished that conversation. Anyway, glad to hear you got down to Deland. I thought we told you to get your ass up to the Ranch! You know, Randy, who I believe was one of your JM's is going to be up there this year. I know it's cold, right now, but that place is pretty nice in the summer. Beautiful view. Glad you're still jumping, good luck, brutha! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeryde13 0 #12 January 21, 2004 i actually did go up to the ranch a few times but they didn't seem too stuent friendly, so i'll be heading up there for sure now that i've got a few jumps under my belt. yeah i saw randy at christmas in pa and he said he'd be heading up there. wish he ws there when i went. i know he'll help aot of people learn to fly up there. you're right about everything you said about me.... man ..i've got become more inconspicuous. i'll definately be going to chamberburg this smer....see you there bro...and thanks for getting hooked on this stuff._________________________________________ people see me as a challenge to their balance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey, you aren't that conspicuous. It's just, I've seen a few students come & go there & elsewhere. You had the right attitude, and I can tell that whether the rest of the community knows it or not, skydiving needs you. You were naturally inquisitive, too. That will serve you well. Sorry to say, that I won't be back at the burg much this spring, if at all. Can't really progress there too well in the direction that I wish to go. I think I'm going to head back across the Bay Bridge to where it all started for me. Like the song goes, see some old friends, good for the soul. But check my profile for e-mail add. If you ever wanna rap, I'm here. Blue ones.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnny1488 1 #14 January 21, 2004 When did you go up to the Ranch that it wasnt student friendly? The school is pretty much closed right now (for the winter) but if you call ahead you can get hooked up with whatever you need (weather permitting) Come up and introduce yourself. If you've got a license there are plenty of rigs to be found that want to be jumped. Johnny --"This ain't no book club, we're all gonna die!"
