Thanks - Any help on the who's who?



No, sorry. I "think" Dave Burton put that together and pulled some folks from the big way team.
Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Nice video!

So, um, I've never been to Skyfest (yeah, I know, I suck), so I may be totally full of shit here, but isn't it the boogie that pays it *skyward*?



It was Sunday when i edited the vide - I was in a hurry - I ALREADY GOT BLASTED by J Scrimsher (Upndownshop) - so GET THE F*&K off my BACK!!!:D:D J/K Truly, though - I was EXTREMELY tired and missed that one.[:/] But since we are poicking Nits - :D - I didn't capitalize the "F" in Fest as I should have either.:ph34r:

[Blatant Subject Change]So why didn't you show up or even call anyone there?[/Subject Change]

I do plan on a little surprise for all those that were in the ceremony - but you will have to wait until you get the paperwork in the mail to find out what it is.;)

Hi Clint. I have a slow modem line and can't download a 6 meg movie file in a reasonable time. Can you post a few of the best still photos, like one with that orange & purple sunset in the background? I'd really appreciate it.

You were really working your butt off out there making video jumps...

bwahahhaha still can't spell my last name... ohh wait... you can't even get the first one right :o

Tom Martin, black suit, black rig, white helmet.

I believe Larry Henderson was in it, cant see the video, so can't tell you his colours in it, but it would be a full face with a greyish suit.

John, I'll e-mail you some - but until I get clear info from J which ones won't be submitted for publishing, I won't be posting many.

What an absolutely INCREDIBLE jump!!!!! I started screaming in my helmet once the 8th made it in, and I don't think I stopped until after I was on the ground!!

These folks definitely made it as easy as falling out of a plane! Thank you so much to everyone on it, and especially to you, Clint, for making it all happen.

Here's what names I can decipher from my logbook:

John Rich
Lee McMillan
Harry Hoyt (? not sure on the last name)
Ken (maybe Kevin) Thomas (again, not positive on last name)
Woody
Pier Vettora
Dave Burton
Jamie Clapp
Tom Martin
Clint McClure

And a very big honor for me personally:

Witness: Bill Newell
Mike
I love you, Shannon and Jim.

Hey Clint!
Awesome video! And I absolutely need the sweet money shot of us in silhouette with the sunset in the background. That was the the photo of the event, IMHBCO. I want something I can have printed and framed -- it was that good.

Neal: congrats dude! I hope that jump adds to your list of cool things in life you've done. Remember this for someday in the future when you have the opportunity to help someone else get their SCR!

Those in my group: thank you for flying so well and help making Neal's SCR a very fun and memorable skydive!

Those in the other SCR group: I apologize for kind of cherry-picking in Neal's favor. Thank you for being gracious enough to allow me that perk. I certainly did not set out with that in mind, but as the number of jumpers swelled, time got short, and I absent-minded one in our group, it just sorta happened. Still, y'all were great sports about it!

Skyfest rocks! I always have fun at this boogie, and look forward to more in the future.

And Clint, I really do want a copy of that picture!
