I met this girl last weekend

[Squeak 17]

I met this Japanese girl last weekend who has been skydiving for 2 years next month, she has 1700 jumps in those almost 2 years.
AND
all of them are FUN jumps.

Who can beat that?

NO work jumps allowed

You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky)

How's yours doing?

Must be nice to be idle rich.

You can bet your ASS if I had no job to go to, and all the free time and money in the world, I'd have a shitload more than 171 jumps!

I can't. All my 944 skydives and 65 BASE jumps in 2 3/4 years are fun jumps as well, but she's obviously been having some fun. Good for her I say.

Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

Are you kidding me? All of my 1500+ jumps have been fun jumps, even my coaching jumps and over 600 tandems. They're all fun.


Never mind that jumpers who tend to jump *that* much in that short of time tend to burn out and quit the sport pretty quick.

i think i know which girl you're talking about. is one of her rigs the one used in Austin Powers (big british flag canopy)?

if its the girl im thinking about, she fun jumps alright. she came out to Sydney one weekend with about 10 other japanese freefliers. they did about 10 jumps a day for 3 days. lets just say i was a very busy packer that weekend... i thank her for contributing to my beer fund while in australia

Over the past few years money hasn't been the problem. It's work that keeps me away from the DZ. It's ok though..........I'll make up for it when I am retired in 4+ years.

I met a girl about 5'9", blonde hair, green eyes, cheerleader & swimmer, with an amazing body. Smart and funny, and I have a date with her this weekend.

So yeah, I can beat that :)

Prior to that she's jumped at Picton for 2 weeks solid, paying for coach jumps with Drew Lipinksi all the time. Good for her - if you've got the cash, why not use it!

[Squeak 17]

That's her Bill. Keiko, nice girl, laughs an awful lot

She did a cross country with us, and i had to explain that's it's a 14000 foot HnP

There's lots of companies that would hire you to do your old job I'm sure. They are out there.........just look around.

Where did she do those jumps, in Japan skydiving is incredibly expensive, most japanese skydivers go to Australia or the US. Curious to know what DZ she calls home.

I met her too when she was here, she's sweet as! so polite too.

Apparently it's cheaper to not jump in japan and save up for a few months then come to australia and just jump solid for a week or two.

I think they were doing 10 a day over the long weekend they were with us. I love her rig and canopy too, i'm such a massive mike myers fan.

Was it Keiko? I saw her at not less than four events last year. She spends a LOT of money on coaching with Max Cohn and a couple of other people. A very nice lady.

Just remember, no matter how cute, smart, and fun she is, somewhere there is some guy that's sick of her shit

I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried
