Tracy_Cox 0 #1 January 1, 2009 Greetings! My home DZ is Skydive Santa Barbara and I would love to see some more upjumpers join us for some fun. Not to sound too cheezy, but we really do have some "beautiful ocean views", which comes in real handy if you happen to surf as well :) Blue skies and soft landings...tlcIt's always better to Smile, Surf, BE HAPPY...

Tracy_Cox 0 #4 January 2, 2009 Sounds like Skydive SB was good to you. Yes, Victor is one of our regular Tandem Instructors -- he is, indeed, professional. I've never jumped at Taft, but you make it sound like it could be worth the trip -- me and another regular at SDSB are heading south for a freefly camp. Does Taft offer these types of camps? Hopefully you can visit us again at SDSB, especially since it was where you made you first jump. I'll work on getting some "beautiful ocean views" posted -- I don't fly camera so I'll have to ask if anyone has some pics. I hope your AFF4 goes absolutely perfect this weekend. Blue skies and soft landings...It's always better to Smile, Surf, BE HAPPY... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
