Remster 30 #2 October 31, 2011 Quote Just read there's 65 4-way teams Really? Where? The plan is to do 115 comp loads today to have 7 rounds completed by the end of the day. The 1st load goes up in 5 minutes, and the last load for round 1 should be wheels up at about 8:20.Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sdctlc 0 #5 October 31, 2011 I just checked and Omniskore does not have the teams up on the site for 4-way? How am I going to get my "I need to know what is going on" fix filled? Skydive TV is up to date with videos from yesterday? They are doing a nice job reporting.. Good Luck to all the teams competing Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"

NWFlyer 2 #7 October 31, 2011 Quote 7 comp jumps in a day ? Man I would be exhausted... or spending the afternoon under a Guinness tap Last year both 4-way and 8-way did between 8-10 jumps in a day. First day of 4-way was mostly weathered out, so most teams did 2 or 3 on Day 1 and 7 or 8 on Day 2. 8-way was expecting lousy weather on Day 2, so they tried to get as many through on Day 1 as they could. Some finished, others only got 9; a couple teams took the option offered by the meet director to stop at 8. (Turned out the weather on Day 2 was perfect, so rushing wasn't necessary after all!). (So for me, doing both 4- and 8-way, my jump numbers went like this for four days straight: 2, 8, 9, 1)"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

We also had about 20 regular loads spread around in between for fun jumpers and CReW types practicing.Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ltdiver 3 #12 November 1, 2011 Am I a nerd or what? I have the day off today, so sitting here in front of the computer refreshing all pages that have anything to do with today's competition. 5 different pages open and running. Thanks Tim and Jan!

Still watching the live feed, where they have CF rolling right now. Omniskore hasn't posted anything yet either. Still waiting.

Ron 10 #18 November 7, 2011 Thanks!!!! The GodFrog was great to be a part of the history (and glad to have my name with yours on it). Any idea why it was not awarded in 96??? The best was the judges choice....
