TomSpoon 4 #455 January 1, 2006 Skydive city sure knows how to throw a party. There must have been hundreds of people there. The band [The Infidels] rocked and there was an awesome fireworks show by Johny Gates. This party gets bigger every year. My hats off to TK or whoever his social director is. Unfortunately the DZ looks like Woodstock did after the festival. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmpnkramer 0 #456 January 1, 2006 Quote Skydive city sure knows how to throw a party That is for sure! QuoteThere must have been hundreds of people there. Almost 700 registered jumpers. That was the last I heard. No telling how many non-jumpers there were. Or locals and visitors for the actual party last night. Hope everyone Stays Safe and enjoys the coming year.

skydiverbrian 0 #457 January 2, 2006 Even I made a cameo appearance today. Got in a some solos and some jumps with strangers. Checked out the eye candy, too. A great way to spend a New Years Day! It's January and we're jumping in shorts and t-shirts. FL life is grand! 4 more weeks to Mexico, baby! In a world full of people, only some want to fly... isn't that crazy! --Seal Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skinnyshrek 0 #459 January 2, 2006 I know for sure i won't be back there next year! They had the same problem as the did the previous year with backed up loads. You'd think they would do something about it this year. We, brought a bunch of people down there to jump. You were lucky if you could hit 5 jumps in a day. Apart from all the bullshit with the planes backed up it was ok. I know for sure that next year it will be either Lake Wales or sebastion. 2 HOUR wait. Fucking ridiculous, especially when you know 3 months ahead that there will be a shit load of people.http://www.skydivethefarm.com do you realize that when you critisize people you dont know over the internet, you become part of a growing society of twats?
