...and WHAT a week! :S

My sincere apologies to those I didn't get a chance to meet up with.

Much of my time this year was dedicated to a fellow team member that I started Liberty Parachute Team with almost 30 years ago...he was less than a week out of Chemo & Radiation, getting him in the air is what got him through the treatment and I saw to it he he made several of the jumps.

HARDCORE d00d to say the least! B|


Interesting & eventful airshow! :)

Haven't even unpacked yet! ;)


Actually didn't really take too many pics this year, I'll link some video stuff when I get it downloaded.

Made some incredible jumps, met some amazing people...& ate a chicken with Divot & Rev Jim! :ph34r:

As one gets older, Saturday evenings tend to be a bit less exciting than they once were...but I do enjoy the peace.:$



That you wearing the camera?


Nice landing edit :P

No bonfire, no nekkid people. What a boring place to jump.:|

Yup it's me, and no not edited...tired camera, keeps skipping.

Notice no exit shot, it just came back on 1/2 way through the dive...and in the other vid it shut off in free-fall for a few seconds.

Was working fine a couple weeks ago, figures it would give up the ghost at Osh.:(

Everytime you post a video of it im amazed by the size of that flag you guys fly. What does that thing way? Its got to be like having a second rig hanging from your body.



Quite a bit. It's not just the flag, it's also the shot bag. Off-hand, I'd say around 50-70 lbs total, easy.
