Vertifly 0 #2 November 15, 2005 Confused... Texas invitational in Chicago with a Floridian link? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beowulf 1 #3 November 15, 2005 You must be thinking of Skydive Space Center in Titusville, FL Skydive Spaceland is near Houston, TX Also you must be thinking of Summerfest which is in Chicago, but Skyfest is at Skydive Spaceland in TX. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trent 0 #6 November 17, 2005 Man, publicity is starting early! Well, just to let everyone know... we're not just looking for Texas flyers, although it'd be nice to have all of us as well, but out-of-staters (or ferriners, as we call them in Texas) are welcome as well. The boogie is bad-ass, as a lot of people here will tell you, so this year we want to make some large freefly formations. So travelling jumpers will get the good-boogie vibe, PLUS have some challenging and hopefully record-setting dives to get on. Just contact me if you're serious about these big ways and want to come. We'll talk!Oh, hello again! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ccowden 0 #7 November 17, 2005 What IS the record? We must be talking 20+ if it is by invitation only. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amanduh 0 #8 November 17, 2005 Yeah, I just posted this over from the general SF '06' post under Events to give a heads up to those who may be interested. So many events each year; it's good to know ahead of time so that peeps can get their 'boogie calendars' goin. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Trent 0 #9 November 17, 2005 I think the unofficial record is 12 or something from a few years ago. We'd like to do 20, of course it all depends on the people that want to come. If you're qualified, want to get more experience on bigways, let me know. Invitational means we want to know who's coming and make sure that we have people with the ability to make it happen. We're REALLY not into zoo-load bigways!Oh, hello again!

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Brains 2 #13 November 18, 2005 Chris, you would get along well with the fliers here. Anomaly ( i have only met Trent) Vibe, Bling. Are all great fliers and incredibly humble people. No ego's, just a group that likes to fly. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

We really do have an amazing group of freeflyers in Texas, with hella talent to say the least.

Something about a certain amount for a day or two days. Is this true? Do you realize what you might be getting into with me? Seriously though, I'm interested.

E-mail me or talk to me in Puerto this New Years and we'll see who's qualified. Either way, Skyfest is during that time, so it should be a good boogie regardless! As far as the coaching thing (for Nathan) we are planning on doing an "All You Can Jump" coaching day or weekend. It'll be a flat rate for the day and we'll jump with all participants as much as possible. Stay tuned for info on that.Oh, hello again!
