4 tandems, and a fun as fuck birdman jump from a helicopter...flapping useless wings is just odd, but transitioning from headdown falling to flat-out flying is, umm, kinda neat. B|:D

Ain't it cool as hell? :P



Yep! I don't get too worked up about most of my jumps these days, but that was a kick-ass 24 seconds of freefall. :D

BEEEEEER!

Due to me.

1st year anniversary! Talk about a really nice weekend. That weekend at the Hilton that I won swooping this year came in handy. The resturant from last night cost me over $120 for 1 meal with just the two of us. Very nice meal.

Beer! again.

New Velo 120 in my container, NICE green and black canopy that opens great and flies very nice.
<---Is very happy.

Did 2 jumps today, which I didn't expect to get this weekend. A VERY nice weekend indeed.

:) The expression on his face said, "What the f*** are you doing, Val?" along with what seemed to be a mix of laughing at me, confusion, and a variety of other feelings. We were both laughing a bit too much throughout the rest of the skydive...I'm not quite sure if I've ever laughed that much while skydiving! :D Big fun!

Other highlights:
Chromy is my pimp (a rather poor one, however)
I jumped with quite a few hot, blonde women this weekend. Yay!
The Sirens are freaking smokin'!!! :o
I tried, once again, to do the newspaper parachute, and once again, failed miserably

Is it next weekend yet?
There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

0:(13 since friday...and um... there's still tomorrow :)):2

Lets see... Did my first night jump and my first slot paid coach jump. (a dive and dock... the student did great... almost better then some of my dive and docks... :$)

oh and night jumps... freaking awesome... can't wait to do it again... B|

hrm... did a few fun jumps with "younger" like 2-ways and stuff... I also shot outside video/stills of our local 4-way team + videographer... I haven't really looked at the pictures yet but I think they might turn out pretty nice... :)
its from last weekend but... I particularly like the first song and the second to last jump has some really nice shots (IMHO) too... :)

Hmmmm... I think you are missing the beer owed. First jump from a heli in a wing suit.;););)



I'll put that case up against the one you owe for the first time you watched someone jump from a helicopter in a wingsuit. :P:D

1 jump yesterday at Northwest Skydivers, then I flew down to SoCal this morning and jumped at Elsinore all afternoon. Got to meet LisaH, got to jump with Odin, and got to do some fun exits (including my first AFF exit in the JM position ... fortunately, my "student" was Steve from Gravity, so I didn't have to work too hard. :D)
