Weekend Numbers Oct 4-5

Recommended Posts

0:9:0

Beautiful weather greeted us daily this weekends. The king Air was making record time to altitude and fun was had by all (except the chick who broke her arm) at the Casino Party at Skydive Atlanta.

I had 9 fun jumps including one dressed in our Pimp and Ho attire. I am curious as to why the camera guy insisted on flying directly behind me and Jen!?:o Jello shots shaped like poker chips were the flavor of the evening and lots of fun was had by all.

2 days of pain the butt work to finish up a trailer at the DZ...over the last few weeks, we had to tear down the desks and stuff that were in there, this past weekend, we measured and cut a sub floor to stick the cheep vinyl tile to (the trailer wasnt square either :S lots of cutting), (doesnt stick to partical board ;)) Cut and glued that down, tiled the floor, sealed windows, made a cover for the AC unit that had nothing but a tarp coving the inside from the out! :S It now has been plywooded into the trailer! Built 2 futons, installed fridge, microwave, coffee pot, toaster and a few other things oh yes made curtains for 8 windows....and got to sleep in MY trailer last night!!! Yippie...

All the hard work kicked ass...I love power tools!!!!:ph34r:

0 jumps (still grounded from car accident....friggen blue hairs)

1 Case of beer for new trailer!!! to be payed at sdc hopefully this saturday if the move goes fast to the new apartment fri/sat B|

2 (Gunner helmets sold; glasses of lemonade and vodka; people I drunk dialed Saturday night):0:0

The store was busy on Friday and Saturday! B| Didn't want to close up and jump just in case someone wanted to spend their money. Hung out and drank a bit Saturday evening then went to an Italian restaurant in Sebastian for dinner (I don't know the name, I was really drunk at the time).

Got back to the house relatively early, turned the TalkBack odometer over 500k, then couldn't get to sleep until 4:30 am. No hangover but I've been soooo tired all day - so I didn't jump today either.

No biggee. I can jump tomorrow. B|

You went to Vic's, I think. At least that was where everyone said they were going when I snuck away from the DZ to go do a nice long rollerblade run (which I fell and took a chunk out of my knee, by the way. Even worse I tore my brand new expensive pants AND got blood on them). Then I took a hot shower and sat here laughing at your drunken postings and PM's.

I knew that you would not be getting on first load! But I must say you seemed quite fine this afternoon.

Oh yeah, almost forgot what the thread was about - I was only able to sneak out of the office for three - no, four this weekend BUT I did have one of my nicest swoops ever that resulted in many compliments and constructive (for once) criticism. So I was happy with the quality if not the quantity.

many, many boxes packed:4:0

Got 4 fun freefly jumps in on Saturday after doing the soccer mom thing in the morning (yea, they won!). Two of my jumps were with Pops. We were going to jump with Fozchek, but the wait for a plane was really long so Pop twisted my arm into bagging on the load and drinking beer. That Pop...he's a really bad influence! :P

Sunday I spent being lazy and then packing a bunch of boxes for my move into my new house in 10 days.

15 minutes of tunnel time

4 jumps on Saturday (3 5-ways and an 8-way, all very amusing)

0 cases owed!

One wierd thing: During an exit, I managed to open a friend's full-face helmet with my foot. :S I didn't know it had happened til we got on the ground.

Booked more tunnel for this Friday! :)

Finished up with my first real logbook! So now I have to buy another one and bounce proof it (Wingnut did the last one). Guess who rolled up to my BFE DZ...we're all packing up getting ready for the next load, when a car rolls up an two guys wearing GO FAST shirts get out...it's Luigi Cani and JC Colashure! Totally badass, Luigi and JC were at the Royal Gorge Bridge invitational BASE boogie, and dropped by for some jumps and a very special jumps. They were going to skydive on to the Royal Gorge Bridge (and did) I was on the load when they went out...Wow! JC went out, but Luigi stayed on because he didnt' like the crosswinds...I really respected that he knew where his limits were and decided not to go. But I was doing a 2 way FF jump with someone, and we invited him on it, so we went and was a totally cool dive.

A lot:14:0

A HUGE storm came in so we had to shut down early today, so I didn't get the other 3 jumps I wanted nor the tandem that was scheduled for a time after the storm hit...that's ok, I'll make those up later.

I did something like 10 tandems this weekend, not a bad weekend, if you ask me, had some fun jumps, had some phat-nasty hook turns with some noice swoops (no, not that last one on Saturday, I know, that one sucked...nice and fast, but low and short).

All in all, I had a very nice weekend.


You know what's absolutely crazy? I actually get paid to jump out of airplanes! Holy shit, my job is quite possibly the best job EVER!

No kidding AD! I was jumping with A-ron the entire day. I was the 3rd man on that jump, but my leg straps kept coming up...he's a great skydiver, and considering he hasn't jumped much since before he entered basic.

You should see Trevor's video of him and A-ron doing a balloon jump in Texas. A-ron is right off the balloon, and does 3 or 4 FF transistions and is rock-freak-solid the entire time. On a balloon jump, right after he leaves the basket...with NO air, basically!

12 Pieces of stainless steel taken out of my right femur (2 "cable ties" left in):0:0

Dr. also repaired a torn cartilidge in my knee and scraped out roughness from arthritis. Right now my leg feels better than it has in years, what little pain left from surgeries is well taken care of by legal drugs.;)

Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

took a trip up to north jersey/NYC this weekend for my old college roommate's wedding. tastefully enough she married a mutual friend as well. gorgeous wedding, totally formal, freee anything-at-all open bars and table service, jazz, filet mignon, they really outdid themselves. i cried like a baby at the ceremony. how embarassing. :$

met up with another friend that i hadn't seen in a while this afternoon, i kept trying to get her to let me sell her engagement ring to buy a few rigs/tunnel time. :ph34r:
