junior_240 0 #51 June 30, 2005 QuoteI've heard that it's a quasi-tradition to dump someone at 10 grand for their 1000th. I think I'll keep mine on the DL when the time comes. That's what happened to me with my 100th. my friend and I exited in a 2-way and another friend was going to dock on my side (or so I thought). When he got to my side the next thing I know is my chute is opening, and this is at 10,000 I start to freak out hoping that noone is going to land on top of me. It took me a minute to realize that my old timer friend had done this on purpose. After that I just enjoyed the sites and the long ride down. I later found out he told everyone in the plane that he was dumping me high. I had no idea. When I got down, I thanked him for the ride. hehe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eeneR 3 #52 June 30, 2005 Just something I want to add to this...Please please please if you ever intend on dumping someone early make sure EVERYONE else is aware of the plan, including and most important especially at 10,000...the pilot. If there is a camera man, make sure that he knows and you have the game plan to make sure he is NOT ABOVE the victum. This could be deadly.. Just be safe and make sure everyone is aware...then have some fun She is not a "Dumb Blonde" - She is a "Light-Haired Detour Off The Information Superhighway." eeneR TF#72, FB#4130, Incauto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amanduh 0 #56 June 30, 2005 QuoteYou win! Glad it could be of amusement to you! Trust me..the 'SUSPECT' has played many of pranks on me.... Another time: *note: Same SUSPECT as previous prank* 2-way RW/FF mix...I'm trying to learn how to back fly for the *beer* time. We exit..I try to go to my back...start spinning..and go to my belly so I'm stable. Hmm.... WHERE THE HELL IS HE!?!? Amanduh looks up, looks down..starts turning in circles searching everywhere for *SUSPECT*... This goes on for quite a while..when all the sudden BAM!! There's suspect. Come to find out he was behind me to the side the entire time. As I would turn, he would follow me (behind) so that I couldn't see him. I'd turn the other way...so would he...just following me so that he'd stay out of site....OF COURSE *SUSPECT* was laughing the entire time... while I'm searching frantically everywhere for my skydiving buddy. Needless to say..*SUSPECT* really likes fuckn with my head in free fall...I never expect anything less though... lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

masterrig 1 #58 June 30, 2005 One December, out of a Cessna, we were going to do a 4-way. One of the guys on the load dumped the DZO off the step at 10,000. Ground temp. was an even 32deg. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amanduh 0 #59 June 30, 2005 After *SUSPECT* pulled the cut-away prank on me...he landed laughing and was told of a prank they use to pull in the 'older days' of skydiving. 4-way team turning points. They all stuck an extra old pilot chute behind their rig and at about 10000 started pitching them. The camera man filming above them (of course the one the prank was pulled on) would start trying to dodge all of these 'opening canopies' and freakin out trying to get out of the way! BWAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHA!! Horrible stuff I tell ya..just horrible! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spizzzarko 0 #60 June 30, 2005 Here we go... This was out at Canon City, Co. One of the tandem masters got a hari up his ass to try and organize a fun jump load. The plan was for an 8 way or something like that. I got put on as a diver to the formation, so I'm sitting in right pilot seat (it's turned to face aft) in the caravan. It comes jump time, and everyone goes. I stayed and talked to the pilot for about 8 more seconds, and then hauled ass down to the formation. The tandem master / shitty organizer and someone else were on their backs spinning with about 5 other people watching. About 8k they gotr their shit together, and people started to dock. Two dudes were low, so I flew down to one of them. John was trying his best to get back up to the formation, but it just wasn't working (have you ever had days like that?). I went to John, slapped him on the ass and then floated into the formation to take a grip right before breakoff time. I then turned and burned!!! It was a fun jump, and John has gotten much better at floating. Grant Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChasingBlueSky 0 #63 June 30, 2005 QuoteOhh that reminds me of another story...a group did that to someone, damn i wish I could remember where i heard that. They did the ready set go...dude left, and the rest just stayed there and watched him go by himself. They did it to Sky. One of his "no show" 10-way exits. He left, they waved, he flipped them off, they closed the door and went around._________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

bob.dino 1 #66 July 1, 2005 QuoteThere is always the dumping someone out of a formation at 6 or 7 grand Happened to my on my first jump with my Spectre. We're doing 4-way, and one of the guys comes to take a sidebody on me. I think I've brainlocked, 'coz I was sure the next point was a meeker. Until I'm under an open canopy at 6k . Bastards .

cocheese 0 #69 July 1, 2005 I think sky pranks are bad news. I have been hurt and have seen others hurt from jokes gone wrong. A lot. Shit's bad enough around the bon fire. Don't need it in the sky.Here's a lesson : Someone put a few pounds of flour in a jumper's tiny hot canopy and repacked it. I found out about it and was wanting to tell the guy not to jump his rig. But i thought it would be ok. I was new to the sport (100 or so jumps) and the flour moron was a rigger/S&TA etc.( 1500 jumps) I was on the jumper's load and could have told him. The whole dz knew about it by now except him. Well, he had a very hard opening and felt like he broke his neck. He was done for the day/weekend.I could have told him and was going to but i didn't for fear of having the whole dz on my ass. Save the jokes for the whuffos.

windcatcher 0 #70 July 1, 2005 not really a prank, but I thought it was pretty funny to watch the vid last weekend of me rodeoing someone, and spanking him in freefall going "Giddyup horsey!!!" Mother to the cutest little thing in the world... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VampireGirl 0 #71 July 1, 2005 My last jump last weekend, after a day of four-way training, was a hybrid and the plan was that if all went tits up, we would play tag and the last one down would be "it" at about 6 grand it went tits up, (after an awesome 5 seconds of having a big freeflyer hanging on our chest straps!!, damn fast) and I forgot about the "plan" went in to dock on my team mate, and he "tagged me on the head" after avoiding me, damn I was pissed off, but had to track away. I'll get him back next time....www.sneale-create.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
