AggieDave 6 #1 April 5, 2004 Yup, did it on Sunday, as it turned out I was going to end up doing a tandem for #1000, so the DZO took the tandem to let me go play. Did a hybrid with RedAssSkyChick (my fiance), MFDammit and PLF, it was quite interesting, went mostly as planned, but funneled very funily. Everytime I would go into a stand, MFDammit and PLF could keep up and would get pulled along like a couple of streamers. This was the kind of dive I really enjoy, low pressure, friends and fun. Sure it didn't work out quite as it was planned, but we were talking about it and laughing about it for the rest of the day. --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

And of course, we didn't have outside video...oh well, atleast the first person perspective of my swoop came out really well on video.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

PC-105 on an Optik with a Bonehead D-box. Its a real clean setup, I really like it. Haven't gotten good video in the air yet (still breaking old habits so I have the video looking, instead of my eyes, etc), but I've got a couple killer swoops from the first hand perspective.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."
