Jump this DZ. The Beech 99 will get you to 13.5K in 15 minutes fully loaded. Good pilots, awesome facility. Lots of folks are concerned about the lack of camping and/or drinking.. but I go to a DZ to get in jumps, make friends, get awesome photos of my experiences.. go to a freakin bar down the street you lushes!

I know I'm not the most dedicated jumper at CSS, but I do my fair share of emailing :) I'm just going to say this: It is imperative to get John Lyman into the new DZ. He has been the integral part of nearly all of the jumpers who licensed at CSS in the last 5+ years. Gear store + rigging + packing + AFF/IAF + tandem + organizing He's working at Butler Parachute in Roanoke now, but I think he'd be willing to come back if he knew the DZ was under new management. He still has a house up in Franklinton. Let me know what I can do to tell move any of this along. I would HIGHLY recommend some marketing to locals. UNC's fiasco this past weekend is proof that we need some CSS demo jumpers at these games (I can tell the difference btw UNC and dook from the air, can you?) I understand that I'm looking at this on a surface level right now, so please someone kick off the roundtable so we can all add our collective knowledge on HOW THE HELL TO GET TO JUMP WITHOUT DRIVING TO G.D. RAEFORD! Ben Bibb Bibb

I just got off the phone w/ Kimosh, he's gonna come hang at the DZ on Friday around noon. I know there are lots of tandems on the books between 10-4, so lets try and get some jumpers out! That means you Kemp Bibb

You're supposed to give us incentive to come to the party dude... I mean.. what the hell do we do if it lands on right hand red?? Bibb

Here is a question... what kind of beer do you guys want for Friday? Bibb

No respect I tell you.... When are you coming to CSS? Bibb

I like Tonya. Anyways, no more Weber State jokes, only Virginia Commonwealth Jokes now..... Bibb

Tony, for the last time... it's not my wife that said that... it's my sister. Bibb

3 percs would make any mortal vomit.... unless that mortal either A) Drank 2 beers with the meds, or B) Went skydiving before the junk could kick in. Seriously, Tonya Hayes.... or.... Tonita Hayes? Bibb

Ok, if I remember correctly, Weber State, being the absolute bastards that they are, put a high profile ACC team out of the tourney back in '97... the name of that team will remain anonymous. Will the DZ be open this Friday? Tandems? Is Tony Hayes really gettin' a sex change? Bibb

Ok, I guess I owe beer for my first post on DZ.com... is CSS going to be open this Friday (16th)? I'm having ankle surgery next week, so I beez in need of some jumps.. Marion - good luck with the western bracket.. muhahahah! Bibb

Manifest - awesome, friendly, helpful, very efficeint jumping system Instructors - Typical CYA, etc.. Facilities - Old, ugly, spread out, but they work Planes - Otters mostly, usually packed full Services - Rigging was friendly and fast, but packers are extremely rude and seem opposed to being told to do anything Packing - covered and carpeted, but old and needs replacing! Vibe - cli

Hell yeah I'll be out there. 12 noon. 2 weeks till my cypres is back.... 2 more weeks......... email me -> bibb@nc.rr.com Bibb
