skybytch 273 #27 March 16, 2005 QuoteThat's it? Yeah, that's all. But then again, I haven't been jumping very long. Ask me again in 15 years or so and I'm sure the list will be more impressive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #28 March 16, 2005 Hey asshole! You left off swooping. As for me I've done quite a few things in this sport and will get on a handful of different kinds of skydives. FF RW CReW (weekend warrior/sport canopy CRW) Swooping Camera flying on occasion even. What do I live to do in the sport? I live to do tandems, I LOVE doing tandems. Hard to explain, but I love it. That and swooping. 9 times out of 10, if I'm not doing a tandem I'm doing a hop&swoop solo. --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Yoshi 0 #33 March 16, 2005 I learned static line, then mostly freefly.. out of my first 500 jumps (other then when on student status) I did about 15 or 20 belly jumps.. I have a handfull of birdan jusps, I am a tandem instructor and coach. I still like to freefly, but I have found myself doing a handfull of belly flying with low timers lately (I really enoy teaching newer people how to do different things, and its really cool to be able to see a good amount of improvement even in 1 skydive. I swoop, and have a handfull of crew jumps (high performace crew and also under big fluffy 7 cell f-11 canopies). I have done 2 speed dives with a max of 249mph (hip mounted pro track). I also fly video for tandems and have done a couple bog way video/4way videos... I really enjoy track dives and hybrids... I havent done any accuracy (other than swooping) but none with an accuracy canopy, but I would like to try it some time... I guess I ust want to be a well rounded skydiver and no matter what dropzone I go to with any type of people flying I would like to be able to get up in the air and hold my own... -yoshi_________________________________________ this space for rent.

Tonto 1 #40 March 17, 2005 QuoteI live, breathe and eat CRW. I did too, for many years. Something about being at the DZ at 04h00 and having done 8 jumps by 09h00 before starting your normal day of AFF, Tandem, etc. Of course, there were the down sides... Like a team member prone to singing one line from a song like "Why does God make things like Tornadoes?" by the Crash Test Dummies - every 5 seconds on the climb to altitude in a C-182... but at least I'd get the chance to try and kill him on the way down! Ahh. And those landings... the adoring applause when you managed to stand them up... CRW is cool. I still bump end cells with my AFF partner after the student pulls. I still wear gloves on every dive, and carry knives, and it's helped me so many times when the traffic on final is heavy. It's never heavier than a stack or plane! tIt's the year of the Pig.

hookitt 1 #41 March 17, 2005 Currently, Freefly, Flat Fly, Swoop, and instruct... and coach... and I'm a student. I've worn tights, didn't like em... but they sure made a person in a resteraunt in livermore want to kick my ass. (got wet on a pond swoop and only had bounceproof tights to wear home)... any way, the tights were great for freestyle. Tried a board a few times. Wow... spinning is cool... until you wish you weren't spinning. lots of camera for tandem and AFF, and some 4 way.... and Freeflying. Quit doing camera dives for money and continued Freeflying. My teamates and I (MadStyle Fly Team) managed to do well in the earlydays of freeflying. AFF came later. I've had the priveledge of teaching some amazing people how to skydive. Some of those people can school me now. Birdman is quite intrigueing. I've a dozen or so bird jumps.... and one cutaway with a birdman suit on.. Yippee! Hmmm... I guess I'm a jack of many trades, and master of none. I'm at the airport right now and they just announced a boarding call....

boinky 0 #44 March 17, 2005 Well, nowadays we start at 0600 hours. But still very early, before the sun. We get to greet the sun on our ride to altitude sometimes! Stand your landings up?
