SkymonkeyONE 4 #401 June 23, 2003 Jari was, in fact, looking for a ride. If you gals are all planning on riding with Kramer, then it may be time for someone else to offer up a larger vehicle, ANDREA! That, or Jari's old minivan. Chuckie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sunnydee123 0 #404 June 24, 2003 I hope it is a good raft cause they attempted a raft dive in Aggieland and the bottom blew out. It was for poor Perky's 100th but he still came down smiling. Dreams become reality, one choice at a time... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhreeZone 20 #406 June 24, 2003 I've got a whole trunk full of toys Do I need to get my freefly tube back for the weekend too? I know skyballs are out... (I've seen one lost before so those are a BAD idea) I've still got more then enough toys to go around I might be able to find a hula hoop around here, I've got Funoodles to beat each other up with already. I'm going out in search of a Whale/Shark/Gator/animal tommorrow now Hehehehe... Free fall toys and me get along really nicely.

LouDiamond 1 #407 June 24, 2003 Quotedoes anybody know where I can get dropzone.com stickers? There are no sanctioned DZ.com stickers. However, I do believe there is a authorized person looking into something along the lines of stickers and patches. Of course, I could be talking out of my ass as some times I confuse the voices in my head with the real voices All I have to say about Jari and all the other birds coming is.............NOICE!!!! This will bring the pain in true fashion.

sunnydee123 0 #412 June 24, 2003 What's a casa? How many people does it sit? Ut-oh...perhaps a first?!?!?! Dreams become reality, one choice at a time... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #413 June 24, 2003 Casa - Tailgate, Bigger then a Skyvan. Can hold about 30-35. Raefords is faster then most of the Casa's out there so its only like a 15 minute ride up. Its a quieter ride then a Skyvan.

sunnydee123 0 #414 June 24, 2003 Woooo-WHOOOO! Bigger then the skyvan? Oh hell yeah! I only made 2 jumps from the Skyvan before it left Sebastian for Cross Keys so need some fun ideas on how to exit the big planes. Oh boy...now I'm all excited again! I need a 2-point 8 way for my D....think we can put something together and help a sista out? Dreams become reality, one choice at a time... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LouDiamond 1 #415 June 24, 2003 Quoteneed some fun ideas on how to exit the big planes. Well, it is very warm out and we wouldn't want you to get heat stroke so it is recommended that you do your first couple of "big plane" jumps naked until you acclaimate"It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MattM 0 #416 June 24, 2003 Two point 8 way? Thats done on a regular basis. You wont have a problem doing that.... just don't go low. Matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunnydee123 0 #417 June 24, 2003 I love flying my canopy so no worries on that...I normally pull at 4 so am flying safe and sound by 3 - my little Sabre2-150 has one hell of a snivel. But no complaints as I have always had nice soft openings. Best one HAD to be this weekend thanks to EvilSteve...I saw his stows and will admit, was a bit nervous but it tucked her away nice and neat and it was the sweetest opening I've had yet.....I don't think I gave him a big smooch for that....IOU's suck don't they I'm getting excited about the trip again. Was all wound up about Aggieland but I am thinking each trip will hold something special for me. This is all so great.....and to think, I have only been jumping a little over 5 months and still have so much to learn and do. GOOOOOOD stuff! Dreams become reality, one choice at a time...

MattM 0 #420 June 24, 2003 going low is when you get so far below the formation you can't get back to it... so don't do that, or you owe beer. Matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunnydee123 0 #421 June 24, 2003 Ahhhh, I kinda sorta did that this weekend in Aggieland, just about to snag my dock and the formation floated on me.....AAAAAAHHHHHH! So Ijust hung out below, watched them play, waited for break off then tracked away. Just hang on to me....I won't float away then Dreams become reality, one choice at a time...

sunnydee123 0 #423 June 24, 2003 Hey bite me......I saw 3 other people coming in for there dock,2 on the far side - they got there about 3 seconds before me and as I went to reach, the formation went up. It wasn't me..... But then again, I did start thinking about having to buy 2 CASES of beer and then getting it poured all over me...........maybe it was me Dreams become reality, one choice at a time...

First off, if YOU reached for a grip then you created your own problem. Second if the other two people made their docks at roughly the same time you should of been able to do likewise.
