1800skyride and Wheel of Fortune

[Superfletch 1]

I was just watching Wheel of Fortune and one of the prizes on the wheel was a $1000 gift certificate to 1800SKYRIDE. Hmmmm... it seems they are trying to make a new name for themselves... Personally I can't believe the show would have gotten involved with a company with such a crazy business record.

Did the prize get won?

Matt

An Instructors first concern is student safety.
So, start being safe, first!!!

oh well i'm sure the winners had alot of more cash and are less concerend about a skydiving gift certificate

Look out for the freefly team, Smelly Peppers. Once we get a couple years more experience we will be a force to be reckoned with in the near future! BLUES!

You should do better research on the companies you get involved with. 1-800-Skyride is the Enron of the skydiving community.

Same here, although I discussed the lawsuits and investigations.

Didn't feel like putting alot of time into it. Maybe send another tomorrow.

I just sent them everything I've got and included the recent thread by 1Smart1, so hopefully they'll retract the prize and make a public apology. (won't hold my breath)

Hopefully that can get included in the Eloy case.

He knows, but he's on the road and can't get online for a while. He'll be in here soon.

BTW, I didn't see it, was it a Skydiving GC or multiple venues and how did they describe it and the company?

I noticed that you have offered a "Skyride" prize in one of your shows.

You might want to be more careful and cautious with whom you align yourselves with.

Research on their websites (rather the lack of genuine places of business) would give you a better opportunity to make a better more informed decision regarding this business.

I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama

Only a 1000 bucks? So the student still has to pay for video? How tacky.

You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.
