Brigitte36 0 #51 December 10, 2004 QuoteI have been in skydiving for almost six yrs (1,200+ jumps, TI , Sr. Rigger and all that), but over the last year or two I have gotten pretty discouraged. At least in my state, it seems all about partying, getting drunk, playing poker all the time at most dz's. Does anyone these days still thinks of skydiving as a SPORT??? (Other than a venue to get laid after too many beers.) Maybe I am too old school...maybe I am just old.well, I must have been doing something wrong because I don't notice a whole lot of the above at my dz (btw- NOT being sarcastic) sounds as if you just need a change of pace to get so you appreciate the sport again Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But some other poster took good care of that I noticed. Why can't someone express their frustrations freely on here? I know lots of jumpers frustrated by the level of partying at many DZ's.
