mellies 0 #1 June 15, 2003 Hi all you skydivers. Well I'm from Namibia and would just like to intriduce myself. I've been in the sport for a year now and have 101 jumps. Did my 100th last Wednesday and it was freezing. Bad idea to do a naked jump this time of the year because it's winter here. Well now that you kind of know me I hope to hear lots from you in the future. Blue skies. Mellies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mellies 0 #6 June 16, 2003 I don't really know what that poll thing means. Maybe if you can tell me, I can tell you what I want to know. Thanks for asking because I really didn't know what to put in there. Blue Skies. Mellies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mellies 0 #7 June 16, 2003 Ja man jy moet my laat weet as jy beplan om op te kom, dan kan ek jou ontmoet op die dz. Wat se werk doen jy nou daar in die states of bly jy nou daar? Blue Skies Mellies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #8 June 16, 2003 QuoteI don't really know what that poll thing means. If you want to start a new thread about a subject, hit the button that says, "Post New". If you want to start a thread but also get specific opinions about a subject, hit "new poll" and you can create a poll. Most of the time, I think you'll probably post and not poll.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mellies 0 #9 June 16, 2003 Thanks, I really didn't know that. I read in the forums that you only nead 50 jumps in the states to participate in night jumps. That must be cool because here in nam you nead a CAT3 and a PRO2 rating. That takes you about 150 jumps and then you have your B Licence. Then only are you alowed to do night jumps. You sound like a real pro, how many jumps do you have? Well safety is always first and rules are rules. Blue Skies Mellies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #11 June 17, 2003 QuoteYou sound like a real pro, how many jumps do you have? Thank-you, but I'm far, far, far from being a pro! I only have 275 jumps, there are a TON of people on the forums who are more experienced than I am. I hope you'll enjoy reading everyone's posts.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mcuk 0 #13 June 17, 2003 Hey, I lived in Namibia for a year... a long time ago...where do you jump out there? I had contemplated going to a dz whilst out there... but the only place was in Tsumeb...and I hadn't heard great things!! I'd love to go back some time...and it would be even greater if I could jump too!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mellies 0 #14 June 17, 2003 I am from Swakopmund on the West coast. The dz is about 5 km from town and busy 7 days a week. Tsumeb isn't really the place to go because it only operates once in about 2 months, so you wouldn't be able to skydive whenever. You should take my email adress and let me know when you want to come. Lots of cool stuff to do here in Swakopmund, it's like the adventure capital of the world. Let me know.

mcuk 0 #17 June 18, 2003 Hi, I think the place must have changed a lot since I was there (8 yrs ago!)...and I only went to Swakopmund once but I don't remember a dz... Sounds cool!! Not sure when I'll make it but it's good to know it's there...See you in the forums! MC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ya know, if it's not on video or ya don't have pictures it didn't happen....j/k I think every DZ is different. My DZ wants you to have at least 100 jumps or the equivalence of your "C" license.
