Got it Kevin, Thanks. Local news reported the jumper as a California residence
-
I heard a comment from a sheriff's officer on one of the local news reports that he would not be charged with any crime since it is not illegal to jump in the area..... ? any clarification on this ?

I guess I'm one of the 4 that fly a Silhouette.. At my numbers, I don't want anything radical so I'm good for a while

How old were you when you did your first jump?
Phillbo replied to Orange1's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Did a Tandem just for fun on my 40th. Went back with some friends about a year later and did another one.. Started AFF 2 weeks later. -
Sounds like a good reason to go down for a few jumps...

Eloy's calendar shows an event called Turbine Madness coming up . What does that mean? There is not any additional info on their web site.

I use this as well. The secret I have found though is that you don't want to take it until you turn out the lights to go to sleep. I've been told it augmenets a chemical that your brain produces in the dark.

we are still talking about changing a tire ... right ?

Sit on the swim platform and drink Rum punches.

Forgive me if this is a repost. I saw it and thought this group would get a kick out of it ... 1. In the company of females, intercourse should be referred to as: A. Lovemaking. B. Screwing. C. Taking the pigskin bus to tuna town. 2. You should make love to a woman for the first time only after you've both shared: A. Your views about what you expect from a sexual relationship. B. Your blood-test results. C. Five tequila slammers. 3. You time your orgasm so that: A. Your partner climaxes first. B. You both climax simultaneously. C. You don't miss ESPN Sports Center. 4. Passionate, spontaneous sex on the kitchen floor is: A. Healthy, creative love-play. B. Not the sort of thing your wife/girlfriend would agree to. C. Not the sort of thing your wife/girlfriend needs to ever find out about. 5. Spending the whole night cuddling a woman you've just had sex with is: A. The best part of the experience. B. The second best part of the experience. C. $100 extra. 6. Your wife/girlfriend says she's gained five pounds in the last month. You tell her that it is: A. Of no influence on your affectionate feelings for her. B. Not a problem, she can join your gym. C. A conservative estimate. 7. You think today's sensitive, caring man is: A. A myth. B. An oxymoron. C. A moron. 8. Foreplay is to sex as: A. An appetizer is to entree. B. Primer is to paint. C. A long line is to an amusement park ride. 9. Which of the following are you most likely to find yourself saying at the end of a relationship? A. "I hope we can still be friends." B. "I'm not in right now, please leave a message at the beep." C. "Welcome to Dumpsville. Population, YOU." 10. A woman who is uncomfortable watching you masturbate: A. Probably needs a little more time before she can cope with that sort of intimacy. B. Is uptight and a waste of time. C. Shouldn't have sat next to you on the bus in the first place. Evaluating Results: If you answered "A" more than 7 times, check your pants to make sure you really ARE a man. If you answered "B" more than 7 times, check into therapy. You're a little confused. If you answered "C" more than 7 times, "YOU DA MAN!"

air traffic blunder on AFF 4.
Phillbo replied to superman0710's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Quote When we landed i learned the golden rule that if you're coming in from the right half of the field, land there; vice versa for the left half. Quote There ya go... Your learning. I was given an LZ walk around during FJS that showed me how to use the area. I assumed it was standard practice. -

Where to take Valleria in Southern California on a the weekday?
Phillbo replied to VanillaSkyGirl's topic in The Bonfire
Run her down to Rosarito or Ensenada for a night .. -
I think I have spent more money on beer than gear for this sport Ian, I have a case of San Miguel, would that work. Thanks for the "insight"..
-
I realized that I forgot to have someone sign my log book the last time I was at the DZ. I'll need these jumps to prove currency the next time I jump. Will they not count? What should I do ? Can I sign it myself ?

how long after graduating from AFF did you wait to get your gear?
Phillbo replied to superman0710's topic in Gear and Rigging
I bought a used conainter and reserve around jump 20 (had to jump on it due to my size) but waited until about 4 jumps ago to buy and start jumping my used Sihlouette. It was frustrating to have a partial rig and still have to rent but it allowed me to downsize in comfort. -
Try a 12K Hop-n-Pop at sunset next time ... those really rock.

I agree with the requirement, was just curious as to who sets it .. It sounds like the DZ hosting the boogie sets the participation requirements. I'm very familiar with the beach in from of Playa Bonita and it will be cross wind landings with drunks running everywhere.. As long as a newbie with less than 100 jumps can lay on the beach drinking Modelos and watch the action I'm cool with it

I was planing to wrap up my water training and B license requirements before the SkyDive Arizona Boogie in Mexico next month but just read that they require 100 jumps. A bit disapointed but I respect the number. Is this number set by the DZ holding the boogie or is 100 jumps required to jump over water ? I figured the B license would give you the ability to jump over water. Just curious.

How do you get the 10 landings signed off? Do I need to have an instructor witness all the landings or just note the distance from the target in my log book each time?
