BikerBabe 0 #1 October 1, 2003 Can I just say how lucky I am? The only one on here is FrikkenSkydiver, but she won't see this because she's either in training at the tunnel or lying around in pain. You guys rock! Know what they did? Somehow, someway, they managed to get us an hour of tunnel time the Saturday morning before Nationals (the 18th)!!!!! Woohoo! Now our alternate can fly with the others (In case I decide not to jump), and I can get in there and see if I've got some weird uncontrollable spins going on because of my smaller leg. Sorry for the random post, but I had to say it. My teammates ROCK!!!! Never meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup!

Ron 10 #3 October 1, 2003 QuoteKnow what they did? Somehow, someway, they managed to get us an hour of tunnel time the Saturday morning before Nationals (the 18th)!!!!! That is a quick way to get disqualified. From: MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING, July 11 - 13, 2003 Fredericksburg, Virginia QuoteThe Committee discussed whether competitors would be allowed to use the wind tunnel after the draw. The Committee interpreted “1-1.6:B. Once an event begins, no competitor in that event will be permitted training or fun jumps.” to include wind tunnel use. Based on this interpretation the wind tunnel will not be permitted after the draw at the 2003 Nationals in Lake Wales. A motion to add the word wind tunnel to the SCM will be happen at the next meeting. The draw is done the night before at around sunset.

BikerBabe 0 #4 October 1, 2003 Actually, the draw this year is on Saturday night. Saturday is for practice jumps, registration and the like. Weird, I know, but we double and triple checked. Actually, it makes a lot of sense, so folks who want to work on Friday can still get there in time to register, etc.Never meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup!

Ron 10 #5 October 1, 2003 Well then your good...Good luck! I know several folks that didn't know of this."No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." -- Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Jefferson Papers, 334 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BikerBabe 0 #6 October 1, 2003 LOL, I didn't know either, since in most previous years it's been on Friday night. Hey! We're not cheaters!!! I just have this mental picture of me hopping in the tunnel with my atrophied leg and spinning like a top, or a 2-jump student! Ack!!Never meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
