nigel99 617 #1 April 29, 2013 I forget the format. But anyway: 8:3:0 8 jumps, 3 Notable events, being first jump with Vader, a rocking hybrid and another tandem jump. I'm married the last number is un-necessary PS - thanks Vader for the 4 way videosExperienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

jceman 1 #2 April 29, 2013 Format is Humps:Jumps:Beer Owed. The first may be any events other than jumps as long as you explain why they are significant enough to warrant being substituted for Humps (and you the poster are solely responsible for making that call - what we think doesn't amount to a tinker's dam ). It's a shame this once important topic has been dropped by the wayside. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

JohnMitchell 16 #3 April 29, 2013 /0/1 Crap weather again so no jumps but spent the weekend working on our new rental house. It's a half hour from the DZ, so we're planning to rent it for a year, then do a little remodel and move to there. Got a lot of stuff to do the next 12 months. I'm teaching the FJC next weekend so I'm sure it will be blue skies and sunshine while I'm trapped in the classroom. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wolfriverjoe 1,523 #6 April 29, 2013 0,2,0. Finally got my ass up in the sky for the first time this year. Awful, awful spring kept me on the ground until this weekend. One H&P for currency, one 4way that went ok for my first jump of the year. "There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

DougH 270 #8 April 29, 2013 15:*:2 I need to think about the notable events part, they were all pretty fun. So what is the syntax for this response? Jumps: notable events : getting jiggy? Never mind, saw it above! 2:15:0 ... no firsts that I can think of. "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #9 April 29, 2013 1:4:1 The "notable event" (and beer) was earning my WSCR at Bay Area Skydiving (Byron) on Saturday. We had a great group out for 4-way scrambles, and pulled eight women together at the end of the day to do a WSCR on sunset load. We had a few men who came joined us as well, but unfortunately, we built it late enough in the dive that they weren't able to dock (we actually built with plenty of time, but wanted to be sure we held our 8-way with just the women for 5 seconds to be sure we had it, THEN we were going to allow the men to come in, but we signaled for them to join us just at breakoff time. Still, really cool to be part of the revival of this piece of skydiving history!"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J. O'Rourke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
