ltdiver 3 #2 January 14, 2007 What are you crazy! Did you see the Alaskan COLD front that's hit the U.S. of A?!! Went for 2 hop-n-pops and only ended up doing one. The pilot didn't check their load sheet and ended up dumping me out at 9k. I wanted a hop-n-pop damn-it, not freeze my *&#$ off! Was so frozen after that one that I packed up and hit the bar to warm up!

I was catching tandems most of yesterday because I wasn't comfortable with the winds on an unfamiliar canopy, so I was out in the sun allll day.cavete terrae.

Your head down is certainly better than my head down, considering I can't hold mine for more than a couple thousand feet.... ...did I mention I averaged 191MPH on the first half of one of my dives today? cavete terrae.

wildfan75 1 #13 January 14, 2007 3 (so far):1:0 A big STFU to all those bitchin' about their "cold weather"! We jumped in 15-20 degree weather (on the ground) here yesterday in WI. Looks about the same for today. Unfortunately due to a shitty landing, I think I'll be sitting today out. God damn frozen plowed corn field! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

adventurechick 0 #24 January 15, 2007 0:4:4 First time docking on a tandem... I brought my friend Christina and flew up to her and held her hand and tracked away! First time jumping a Cesna. First time flying a PD reserve. First cutaway (intentional cutaway skyhook system) which totally rocked like whoa. So palatka, you can hold me to this, I will be bringing lots of free beer with me next time I'm there. They had free beer all weekend for the boogie, so I'll bring my many cases of beer when it's not free!!

vskydiver 0 #25 January 15, 2007 2/3/0 I made three jumps today in below freezing temps! For most people I know they wouldn't think that was a big deal but if you knew me you would be amazed! I'm amazed. It was COLD! But I did it! I'm alive to tell the tale. It's all good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
