  1. Hey everyone...I was not able to post this in the scam alert section but here is ANOTHER heads up. My rig is for sale on the classifieds and I got an email from "matt_1959@yahoo.com". Wanted to send me twice the amount of money for the rig and do the wire tranfer through a third party....and offered to pay me an extra $100.00 to remove it from the internet...OBVIOUS SCAM. Why are these idiots who can't even use proper english doing this crap!! I can't believe how many scam attempts are on dropzone.com classifieds...be careful. Thanks and blue skies..Rodney Stoner-Skydive Carolina.
  2. THE MUD DEMON !!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah booooyyyyy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  3. GO CAROLINA GO !!!!!!!! The Pats look very strong but I will send ALL the vibes to the Panthers!!!!! The Pats looked great against the Colts...so Carolina will have to be in TOP form !!!!! GO PANTHERS !!!!!!
  4. I hear ya about the your friend feelin' the pain at 10k!! I feel bad for tandem jumps in such cold weather...they miss out on the comfort of a warm summer jump. Best wishes on the studies. Snowmobiles !!! "oh yeah!!! Snowboarding...I wish...I seem to bust my butt too much. Maybe I should give it a chance. Take care...later girl!!!! Scotman
  5. 15 DEGREES ??!!! At 15 degrees I think I'll drive SOUTH for a less PAINFUL jump. I now have about 700 jumps and I have not been in freefall below 30 degrees since around jump 50. Call my a cold weather wimp...but I love the sunshine!! So, what are you studying in school and what do you enjoy outside of the new skydiving world ??
  6. Hey Kim, Glad to welcome you to the family!!! Now that you have a rig THE MAJOR purchase is out of the way. I wish you thousands of great jumps and awesome late night DZ memories girl !!!!! How are jumping conditions in Oregon this time of year ?? Must be COLD about now??

    Good Bye kat69

    Chute, I AM HEARTBROKEN FOR THE LOSS OF THIS YOUNG LADY WHOM I DID NOT KNOW...BUT WE DID EXCHANGE A FEW E MAILS. IT WOULD BE SO NICE TO BE ABLE TO REWIND THE CLOCK AND HELP...SOMEHOW. SHE SOUNDED LIKE A YOUNG FREE SPIRIT THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN FUN TO HANG OUT WITH. MY PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND ALL THOSE WHO KNEW HER. SCOTMAN
  8. Everyone is giving me great feedback !!! Although the excitement of the unknown is attractive...it might just be way too costly!! It may look fun in the movies (not that I'VE seen those...haha) but real life steps in and the "climax"..shall we say..is over. Maybe if you're just single and don't have the exclusive relationship...go Gadget go !!!...but real LOVE could get screwed...and not in a good way !! Could just be a matter of...whatever floats your own canopy.
  9. I would by NO MEANS call myself or my other half swingers. It's just a thought for the "been there done that". I totally agree that the end result could be emotionally BAD!! I mean no offense and you are so right about most people who have done it... (or would) would not let the world know...especially SKYDIVERS.
  10. I'm an all out RW bellyboy with too many skyventure wind tunnel hours to count....and I love it !!! Freeflying is awesome.....but this boy can't fly on his head for nothin' !!! Just give me lots of points on my belly and high speed 4-way !!!! I must admit...some of the most down to earth skydivers I've met are freeflyers. (nothing against my RW family) I look forward to ZHills.
  11. Hey Stacy, Sounds like Z-HILLS is the Ritz Carlton of Florida DZ's on your list ?? We may just bring a suitcase and stay !! What more could a jumper ask for ??????
  12. Thanks for the map. We will try and get down there for a visit. AND...GOOD LUCK ON THE JOB HUNT !!! We'll be liftin' up a prayer for you !! You rock right back !!
  13. You truly have my excitement level up to check out "SoBe"...Now that I'm up to speed..Can't believe I did'nt know the name of the DZ !!! It sounds like you are sold on the place...now it's my turn. How far south of Orlando would the drive be ???
  14. Yo Girl.... Please forgive me for being oblivious, but fill me in on your Chant ??? I'll probably kick myself for not "getting it".
  15. I've been wanting to make the trip to Skydive Arizona for a long time. It seems as though my bank account never allows me to fly that far west. I'm on the East Coast. I will get there someday !!
  16. Can you tell me how Z-Hills compares to DeLand ? DeLand is the only DZ in Florida where I've jumped..How about Sebastian??
  17. Thanks...I'll look into that as an option. Sounds good.
  18. Where is the best DZ for the winter months in FLORIDA/GEORGIA ?? My wife and I are jumpers and we are looking for the DZ with the coolest group of people. We need a vibe that makes us feel welcome and is low on SkyGod attitude. Good planes and indoor packing help ?? Boy...are we comfort wimps or what??? Speak to me my fellow cloudhoppers.....
  19. Thanks for the update !! She is very cool and I hope she makes it back to the states sooner than later. It sounded to me like she really wanted to stay in the USA. Best wishes to her !!!!
  20. Does anyone know Lanka ? She was/is a skydiver/ packer at Atlanta Skydiving Center this summer. Is she still there or has she relocated to Florida for the winter ? forgot to get her contact info before I left. Thanks, Scotman
