Bowie 0 #1 March 1, 2009 we were surfing google maps and was looking at lodi in street level. and when you drive on "N state Highway 99 W FR RD" there is a swooper with perfect timing that you can follow from setup to landing. use this link http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=da&geocode=&q=23862+N+State+Highway+99+W+FR+Rd,+Lodi,+CA,+United+States,+&sll=34.885931,-121.289062&sspn=122.324109,315&ie=UTF8&ll=38.199052,-121.26327&spn=0.008448,0.019226&t=h&z=16&iwloc=addr&layer=c&cbll=38.19896,-121.263276&panoid=gPR_bbaIsJuf7b7513FpsQ&cbp=12,331.3049726155629,,0,0.7812499999999839Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrFreefall383 0 #3 March 1, 2009 I love seeing this kind of shit. All the things that nobody plans to see on an aerial map, you can easily find. My parents' house on Google Maps is shown when we were doing some major renovation throughout the entire house, there's one of the contractor's vans and a huge dumpster in our driveway."If at first you don't succeed... well, so much for skydiving." - aviation cliche Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wolfriverjoe 1,523 #7 March 1, 2009 I see 2 canopies landing. If you "back up" until you are in front of the parking lot, there is a second one coming down.

CanuckInUSA 0 #8 March 1, 2009 Nice ... some swooper is immortalized in google. Plus turning over those power lines must be trippy. There is a DZ I have swooped at in Alberta that has power lines I turn over and dive down on and it's not easy to tell yourself (they will not be an issue when you come out of the turn). But it is the right thing to do if you want to make the entry gates. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
