lummy 4 #26 June 28, 2004 4:13:4 Took Friday off and went to the American boogie. Made lots of jumps with old friends and new alike. Firsts, lessee.. first time going to 18k on oxygen. It was cool but it didn't seem a whole heckuva lot longer than a regular jump. Also did a 6 way tube out the back of the Skyvan, now THAT was a blast :) WEll, except for feeling my altimeter pull off my hand when the tube broke up. Kinda freaked me out not knowing what my altitude was (Even tho I have a pro track). I was low so I kept an eye on everyone and tracked when they broke off. The last 2 firsts were the same jump. For Sunset Sat nite, they organized a 60 way cross country.WEll, it was SUPPOSED to be a cross country but somehow we got out right on top of the airport I was in the lead Skyvan and it was SOOO awesome looking out the window to see the other skyvan no more than 40 ft (or so) away. Jumped out and pitched, then turned around to watch all three planes unload :) Me and a friend of mine were going to try n dock but I was going too fast for him to keep up. and to top off a great day, both skyvans and the caravan did a formation flyover after everyone landed :) Oh, the first 4 was for the amount of sleep I got both Fri and Sat nites.I promise not to TP Davis under canopy..

Amazon 7 #30 June 28, 2004 nope:9:0 Wow what a wonderful relaxed.. fun weekend of jumping. Jumping with good people from a wonderful airplane.. and jumping just as much as I wanted... relaxed.. laid back.. and only once with a tandem .. because I wanted toToday I started flying a camera.. and.. on the third jump learned about low battery power the hard way.. a little more tweaking of the system so the eyepiece does not move and it should be flawless.. I think the Chin Cup will help when Dom gets it sent out.. The Chin strap... lets it move a bit much... Oh yeah.. forgot.. one TOTALLY EXCELLENT Pieing of AcmeSkydiver the Friday night to celebrate her 100th.. what a supurb mess. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rainbo 0 #33 June 28, 2004 :4:0 Even though the first number sucks my weekend was made when I was allowed to jump with all the hot chicks at the JFTC tryouts with Jenny. The dreams as I slept where extordinary. Nothing can make a persons weekend better than meeting a hot .commer for the first time and hearing the phrase " you're actually attractive" (thanks Vallerina). It was also a great weekend from the perspective that I jumped painless for the first time in awhile. Perhaps going back to my Stilleto 150 had something to do with it as I did not have to run out any landings even with no wind on Saturday. Oh yeah, I can always take women and peeing to a level.Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

Vallerina 2 #34 June 28, 2004 CHANGE YOUR AVATAR!!!!! When are you guys going to fix the door at SDC? The darn thing moved on me! I swear!!! Unfortunately, Phil isn't here today, so I can't show him my HUGE bruise! It's really gross looking! My mother was impressed. I even jumped with Tigra! She's a cool lady! The only dz.commers I didn't jump with were Kallend and KrisFlyz.

eeneR 3 #35 June 28, 2004 :8:1 What a kick ass weekend!!! woohoo.... lemme see...6 jumps on Sat, 4 all women ways... If i remember they were 12-14 ways 2 jumps on Sun...1 22 way from 14,000, Fusion 11/11 it was 11 guys as the base, and 11 girls chasing them out we didnt quite make the second point on that one... jump 2 on sunday was the same jump but this time we only got 10,000ft...so it ended up being speed 22 way 1 case owed for first attempted hybrid! It was a great weekend! Thanks Jenny Martin and Missy Nelson for having the ladies camp!

Brains 2 #37 June 28, 2004 1:5:0 and it was good Five jumps, all video. Four training with my teammate. One video of an aspiring freestylist who has improved tremendously from the last time i jumped with her.Pretty good weekend overall, i was hoping to kayak sunday, but the thunderstorms prevented that.
