bendywendy 0 #302 February 6, 2006 Well, you can't please everyone! The weather did completely hose us so we got about 1/4 of our normal boogie attendees. It stopped raining so that we could enjoy the party and cleared up for a beautiful day Sunday. There was a small group of people who evidently wanted to jump at 8am however, when I arrived at our opening time of 9 am at which time we could have immediately sent a plane I had to get on the mic an repeatedly say we were open and bring your tickets. The first hour or so the loads were very light and only able to back up because we had some tandems to fill them out. Finally, the rest of the jumpers who were capable of jumping on Sunday showed up and we were able to fly one plane but that was it - just enough to fly one plane all day. There were a lot of jumpers who were not up to jumping after the party on Sunday. (Should have started early and gone to bed early - it was bad weather all day long!) Oh well, nothing one can do about the weather... Next stop - Dirty Sanchez Luau! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JeepDiver 0 #305 February 6, 2006 Quote That's the chance you take with getting into a sport that's totally dependant on the weather. I had a great time meeting so many cool & new people. It worked out well for me, I had the weekend off, which in and of itself has been unknown for many years of my life. If it would have started snowing I would have enjoyed that. Sunday was just awesome, I was last out of the skyvan, my first time jumping one of those. I was about a mile northwest of the airport but with the uppers as a tailwind I was able to track all the way back from being on the otherside of the river. I'm glad I went. I met so many great people, too many to list in fact but thanks so much to everyone for being so friendly. Thanks to Julia for packing my rig in 5 minutes on a 10 minute call, I'm greatful for making the load. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fireflytx 0 #306 February 6, 2006 Thanks everyone for a great time and letting me perform for you all! brains and I had some mishaps along the way but we had such a good time. It started when me package if fire gear did not arrive to the DZ on Wednesday before the boogie and it never arrived after that. SO upon arriving in rainstorm (UGH!) we had a very turbulent landing that scared the shit out of me. We drive from Orlando to Sebastian and get to the hotel. There is a jacuzzi bathtub int he middle of the bedroom KICK ASS! So since me gear didn't arrive Brains and I go to Walmart and Home Depot to get some thing to make some crappy one time use fire gear out of dowel rods, black tape, bar-b-que skewers, and wire. My normal gear is beautiful all metal and crafted well and the wicks are made of kevlar. We arrive at the DZ and I finally meet me sisters Mel & Alli. I can't believe we have all never met until now. Right away all of us go to their team room and for about three hours we make the fire toys while having a few cocktails. And then we practice inside listening to music getting the timing down for when and who comes out where. Alli stills need to practice with fire since she is not familiar with the medium and it is pouring. We say "Fuck it" lets have her light up anyway. It is windy and wet and makes it hard to practice but she does anyway and Alli did a kick ass job. And since we had to make all that stuf and practice we missed out on Thai dinner. OK Saturday, I woke up at 8 am it was pouring, that really sucks. Went back to bed and go to the DZ at 11:30 and we attempted to go get Thai now. BUt no, it was close, so a place called Squid Lips it was. It was pretty damn good. Back to the DZ and finish the gear and practice a little more. The DZ close since the rain never cleared up but Alli and I go get ready in the hopes the rain clears ups. It does and we start getting ready for the show and we are soaking gear aside of the hanger and Brains comes over to me and tells me in spinning out the fuel from his Poi (the Chains) The poi broke off the handle and went flying and he didn't ever hear it land. After about 10 minutes he found it past the Caravan. THE SHOW WENT OFF GREAT!!!!!! SPecial thanks to Brains, Alli and her teammate (so sorry I forgot your name in the mist of being all crazy that night) Even with gear I didn't know was going to fliy off at any time it all came out well. ANd thanks to BendyWendy for letting us borrow her poi so Jeff & I could spin at the same time. The party was just get despite of it being a little chilling us girls managed to stay scantily clad for the party. Thanks to Mel & Alli for Brains' birthday cake!!!!!! We went to bed early in the hopes to get up and jump before we had to leave at noon to get our flight. I get on the first load with Alli, Santiago, and Carlos(Is that last name right???) ok we go out to do a jump. I totally sucked ass and feel like a complete jackass. It was just one of those jumps where you haven't jumped in a few weeks cause of weather. ALso and note to self, I can't get into a compass very good in freefly pants and going from a sit. I haven't flailed that much in a long time.But as I look around "Where the hell is the DZ????" It is way off in the horizon and I will never make. I see trees and a river I will make it to and that is no good of course! I see others landing off and go for them. It was probably a good 20 minutes until we were picked up. Since all that happened I didn't get to make another jump but oh well. All and all a great weekend with my Pink Mafia sisters!"Well behaved women rarely make history" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

allisonjr 0 #315 February 7, 2006 Such an AWESOME weekend with a great bunch of people!!! The few times that I got tired, stressed, or just a little grumpy were totally outweighed by the fun that was had throughout this event. Thanks to all that attended and I hope that you return next year. As always, we promise that this boogie will continue to get bigger and better each year!

HellsAngel 0 #317 February 8, 2006 To everyone who attended the Pyro Vixen Boogie, I want to say THANK YOU for all your support and kindness throughout the weekend. I don't think I could have found a better group of people to spend a rainy, non-jumping Saturday with. Much love goes to my fellow Slip-N-Sliders...shower load is manifesting now! And I don't think I will ever feel more like a celebrity than I did at the AWESOME party! To everyone who helped me through what turned out to be a horrible Sunday--all my jump money stolen (not at the dropzone), lack of canopy for half the day, etc, etc.--I appreciate you more than words can say. I had people offer to pay for my jumps, help me pack, and give lots of hugs. I look forward to my next visit to Sebastian, when hopefully skies will be blue and I will retain my sanity!
