Skolls081102 0 #1 April 15, 2005 Ok, I didn't want to hijack a thread, so I just figured I'd start this one. As some of you know, I have yet to jump- so whilst I wait to lose weight, I am trying to educate myself by reading as much as I can about skydiving. This pie thing is a tad confusing.... When do people get pied? (As in for what reason- and is there more than one reason why someone would get pied?) Whom does the pieing? Exactly what is in this pie? And, do you get pied with your gear on? (Seems like I wouldn't want to get gear that cost a few thousand dollars all messed up with pie....I'm sure thishas been covered before, but there seems to be an awful lot of pie talk lately. Well, thanks in advance for the info. The sole intention, is learning to fly.Condition grounded, but determined to try.Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies.Tongue tied and twisted, just an Earth bound misfit.

Vallerina 2 #2 April 15, 2005 People get pied for their 100th, 500th and 1000th, and every other "thousandth" jump. You usually don't see people getting pied for any other jumps, and sometimes people will miss getting pied. Whoever wants to do the pieing does it. Sometimes, many join in! I haven't seen people get pied in gear because it's rude. I think it's been discussed here before, but I'm too lazy to search! It's fun.There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #3 April 15, 2005 Pieings should only occur at jump milestones, the first one being at 100. There's some debate as to when they should occur after 100, but definitely on any multiple of 1000. The pies can be made of different things: shaving cream is the nice thing, whipped cream is the common thing, but they can get nastier. You should be out of your gear and jumpsuit before being pied. You won't be forewarned, but everyone should wait for you to get out of it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its only in the past 5 years I have seen the lower jump numbers in play. But either way,,,I missed them ALL!! Too late now. Have to catch me at 2000. But I've heard they might stick me in the dunk tank during SkyFest 05. Thats not so bad, July in Texas. If you are on a Pieing jump get out of your stuff fast, sometimes the jumpsuit gets it too if they get tired of waiting on you.

Maybe I'll call out of work so I can get her (sorry weegirl) Then again- I doubt Frenchy would be willing to pay for my first jump ticket (my first tandem)....Oh well....

skybill 22 #23 April 17, 2005 Hi Skolls, Within the last coupleof months or so there was a coupleof threads on "Pie," "Pie Rules" and or the like. Take into consideration that there are no rules except "Jungle Rules!!" People play make believe and make up this silly shit to satify their own vanity! Any one can make up "rules" all day long about pieing people for some dive or another or whatever. The bottom line is that there are,"NO rules!!!" Any one who claims some primal "Right" to pie is blowing smoke. No one has the "Right" to pie me, or you for that matter. Anyone who tries can and will have revenge bestowed upon them 10fold!! I have never been involved in another person's pie job and I really don't care to have anyone (I don't care how good of friend you consider yourself to me or what the event is) trying to pie me. I'm really not into public humiliation, that's what pieing is and anyone who considers it some kind of "Honor" is blowing smoke!!!SCR-2034, SCS-680 III%, Deli-out Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
