Texas Dropzones springing up like weeds

Recommended Posts

That's a good thing. :)
Before this year I thought I'd jumped em all. Now I go looking at our online dz dot com directory and I see THREE new ones.

Expect a visit from me before the year is out. :ph34r:

One of the joys of this sport, in my book, is going to new dropzones. Some day I'd like to fake one out and take a first jump course. Sling my JMs off and roll over on my back and watch em freak. Any other pervs ever do this or THINK about it? :S Probably not going to be well received, but might make a cool Punk'd show. :)

There's never a good time to be living in Austin... :P;):D



It's the only part of Texas I'd consider living ... :D

Nothing personal, bro, but if I had to choose which one of you two to convert into an Austinite, it's pretty much a no brainer.

:P



I'm hurt. You called me a no-brainer and I like to think I'm at least a little bit smart. [:/]

Hmmm, make sure a friend that video's goes along, seperatly of course, to take video of the JM's.
If you didn't want to involve slinging off JM's, how about a static line FJC. Do a back roll on your first jump, I have video of my coworker who did a back roll.

What type of shennigans could you pull landing, while under a student canopy?

Could be interesting watching the video of the ground instructor, or the JM in the plane. ;)

Arch? I can arch just fine with my back to the ground.

I was driving back from Ft. Worth and decided to take a detour stopped by Temple and had a few with some old friends and some new ones.

Capitol Skydiving... it is listed under TX Dropzones on here. They fly a Cessna 206, and it is an all new facility. Great vibe, just opened July 1st. Only 20 minutes away from Austin once you get on 290 from 35.

Number is coming through a PM and not sure about SkyFest... I kind of want to go, but after buying my del Sol, money is a little short this month... It's not like it's only 3-4 hours away or anything... :D

Plan for one more DZ this winter. I hear that our Bremerton DZ in WA is planning to spend the winter in the San Antonio area, possibly bringing down the turbine converted C-207. That would be a good time.



You mean there are people on the left coast that aren't afraid of texas summers?:o

Reread John's post. Sounds like they're very scared of Texas summers. That's why they're coming down in the Texas winter.

And I am a west coaster who is more than willing to admit that Texas summers scare me. And I even once spent a summer in Texas. :o
