Skydiving in San Antonio......NOT!!

[skydivermom 0]

I was at the library today with my son, and a man approached me about skydiving. He had noticed my shirt, and was asking me all kinds of questions. He recently made his second tandem and is very interested in becoming licensed. Anyway, I live in Canyon Lake, TX, very close to San Antonio. He asked me if I jumped at the DZ in San Antonio. I had never heard of a dropzone in San Antonio, so I was very surprised when he printed a page from the internet and handed it to me. It says San Antonio Skydiving, and even has an 800 number. For some reason, I had a feeling it was somehow affiliated with Skyride. So when I got home, I called the number 1-800-791-JUMP. I asked the guy where they were located, and sure enough, he started naming off some DZ's in my area, and tried to convince me to make a reservation through them. I asked him why should I pay them to make a reservation when I could just call the dropzones myself? He started stammering a little bit, so I asked him whose pictures were on the website. He quickly tried to change the subject, telling me about more dropzones close to me. I then told him that I am an experienced skydiver and would have no need for a RESERVATION.


Anyway, I really am curious whose pictures are on the website. I don't recognize anyone in them. Here's a link to the website if anyone wants to try and identify the pics.....or if you just want to call and screw with them.

Thanks Katie, for telling me how to make this a clicky. 'Bout time I knew how.

I recoginze the jumper in the pink FF pants she is a staff member from ASC in Atlanta the picture was probably taken when she got out for a H&P as blowing a kiss to the plane is a typical exit for her.

I think I recognize the TI in the top photo as an instructor that use to be at ASC several years ago... (I believe he is in TX now and no longer employed by a skyride dz)

edited to add: skyride probably has the rights to the photos...

So did they finally at least get smart enough to get the rights to the photos?

If it's of their own staff members, yeah, probably so.

Think of how stupid the average person is and realize that statistically half of them are stupider than that.
