Skydive San Diego (aka Otay Lakes / Air Adventures) is throwing a bash this coming weekend. Saturday night is the Airborne Veterans dance and BBQ. They truck in 20+ campers, setup a full bar, BBQ and live band with dance floor. It's a great thing to do the sunset big way, then land by the dance floor and get handed a free drink! Mad Memorial Day is $16 jump tickets, $150 tandems and $69 videos. We will also have a DJ and BBQ. It's also rumoured that there will be a grand caravan and an otter... Come join the fun!!

I was part of the base with Whiskeychick and I can tell you now, we had 70 seconds of freefall. In the video you can see Whiskey in this beautiful buttercup arch and the rest of us flat as pancakes. If the larger men hadn't been part of the 4 way base - I don't think they would have made it up to us. Once Whiskey gets her mind of this 3D nonsense and starts working on AFF with me, she's gonna make us work to keep up with her!!!

I asked this same question to one of our experienced skydivers. There's a couple reasons to put the slider behind your head or under your chin - or even in your teeth. With the slider all the way down the risers, it allows the canopy to flatten out more, giving you better performance on turns and flare (or swoop). On my new 135 (god, I love that thing) - my slider actually wants to come down the risers and sit behind my head. I'll be testing it out today and let you know... Light, love and laughter, Katzeye

My personal favorite that I use for freefly exits is: "Oh, Sh*t, Waiiiiit" Also works great on RW jumps - the base is laughing so hard we don't funnel! Light, love and laughter, LA*

Once I started jumping I started frequenting the "Church of the Open Door." Other than that, my spirituality has remained the same. Katzeye

USPA offers a kick-@ss life insurance policy for a very rasonable rate - and it covers any skydiving related accident. Go to their website or give them a call.

Ah - The Wicked West - Elsnore, Perrisite, both nice dropzones. But for the PRETTIEST DZ come to Otay in San Diego! I live in SD and jump Otay for all my fun jumps. Elsnore and Perrisite are great for getting in hard-core RW or Freeflying. They have some killer good people there. And of course, there are great people at all 3 dropzones! Drop me a line when you come down and I'll introduce you around at Otay... me and WhiskeyChick will take good care of ya! Katzeye

You know you're a skydiver when you flat pack your sheets! -
It changes over time, but right now "She's so high" by Tal Bachman gets me going... and my favorite to hum on the plane or sing is "Chinese Rap" by Camp Kill Yourself.
