jonstark 8 #1 November 16, 2003 I remember sitting around the Z-Hills fire pit in about 79/80 with a couple of Dem Toad Suckers. I can't remember who they were or where they were from but I used to see them at lots of boogies. Who/when/where are/were they? Alittle history or memory jogger please? thx, jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sikorsky 0 #2 November 16, 2003 Anyone who tells you they remember the 80's at Z-Hills probally wasn't an original ToadSucker. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Being a newly recruited "TOADSUCKER" myself, I too am curious of the history behind the group and possibly some stories. Surely Jon, you have some DQ stories you could share with us PUPS? Please?

jonstark 8 #4 November 16, 2003 QuoteAnyone who tells you they remember the 80's at Z-Hills probally wasn't an original ToadSucker. You're right...It is all kind of a blur. I remember wearing a pendant made of a flattened, mummified toad found in the parking lot. There were a few of those around at the time. I just can't remember where it was. I think it was in Covington, LA and they made it to the Hills for Turkey Meet. Was that a Toad Sucker thing or just an abberation? jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krkeenan 0 #5 November 18, 2003 "THEM TOADSUCKERS" originally started as a CRW team at one of the ZHills boogies. I think it's been many years since there was an actual ToadSuckers team, however, the name lives on. It is basicly a loose organization (emphasis on loose) of CRW jumpers bent on having fun and spreading the gospel of CRW. I know there are others lurking out there who can give a more factual history of theis great and glorious organization. Kevin k.

psychoswooper 2 #6 November 24, 2003 I don't really know when or how they got started...but I became a Toadsucker back in 1985..in Homestead Florida on jump # 113 in a four way (stack that is)with Jon Sikorsky, his brother Gino Condon & Bob Lacey...or was it Bill??? Haven't had much contact with them over the years, but they were always a nice bunch of guys. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
