weekend numbers, Sept 6/7

Recommended Posts

1:3:1

1 semester starting. You know, normally I enjoy my program, but damn...:(

2 sitfly jumps, the second one was free and it was the first time I not only felt the sit but kept it, too. 90% of the dive was in a sit. Freeflying is the shiznit!

1 first night jump! It was awesome! I'm not even gonna try to describe it.

Skydiving is easy. All you have to do is relax while plummetting at 120 mph from 10,000' with nothing but some nylon and webbing to save you.

2 days spent avoinding situations:8:0

Nice calm weekend.. 2 wingsuit jumps, 2 cross country jumps, 1 RW ,1 freefly, a tandem and a tandem video. Good swooping conditions and I bettered my best swoop by a bit. I love clear and pulls at 13k... nothing like a 6 way just flying around each other like fighter jets B|


Jumping a tube is'nt dangerous enough... jump one with a camera and film your own deployment like here: Peace!

Had an awesome day playing in the clouds at Eloy though!!! ;)

Although I showed up to the DZ today and thought I wouldn't get any in at all, it was only raining at the DZ. Changed hoping that would help a bit and 30+ minutes later, FIRST LOAD!!! Tee hee. :P

take the time to appreciate the people around you.

6:0:1 or 2 just because I had so much fun!
Did some fun jumps and then did some really fun jumps. Did a tennis ball jump that had 10 throw and catches, thanks Paul, and Paul, and Ted. Did some fun belly stuff with Terry's group(I am fast coming to love yous guys.) And then Sparky and Shawn showed up and I got to practice my freefly skills. I use that term loosely. Then drank Ted's beer and was glad I wasn't doing Tandems till sundown like the other tm's. CSC rocks! Thanks TD and Doug and all the rest of you for all the fun...
see ya next week,

Have fun on your trip!

TheAnvil: 0:4:3 in Hollister. Great time both days. Skypup and I got lost on the way to the San Jose IMAX, where most of the H-town crew was there (we refused to miss the sunset load). Pop, Hookit, Skydivexxl, and several others were there.

Beers to all,

Jump 2 this weekend was fine until deployment and was pleased to see multiple line twists greeting me. And jump 3 I botched the landing big time. But I walked away so no harm done. This jump is why I do, and will for a while longer, jump sky barges.:)

85:B|:1

85mph down the taxi-way on our pilot's 2003 Yamaha YZF-R6. Yeah, he was dumb enough to let me take it for a spin and I was stupid enough to accept. I'm now shopping for a used Yamaha....and I used to be such a Kawasaki fan. Sigh.

Made enough jumps to make me very happy but the case is owed for my first wicked carve on landing. Scared the bejesus out of a friend I made a human target out of, but got lucky that he was just insane enough not to move, and let me carve my Stiletto completely around him.>:(

Missed jumping on Saturday due to an evil migraine. Ugh.

I'm new to the forums... how does this weekend numbers format go? #:#:#?



Humps (or other significant number): Jumps: Beer owed.

Yesterday I listened to the weathermen (who suck). I need a job where I can be 5% accurate. They said that it would rain all day Saturday, so I cancelled my day at the beach with my friend. It was Beautifulllllll out.

Today I did a 10-way speed play jump. Just fun to push it a little. B|

Next was a cool 5-way. Round, compressed acc, left-hand donut, 570 to a rt-hand donut, open acc, back to the top. 11-pts. :)
Third. 10-way. Slot perfect round. Split into 2 5-ways and cog back to the round. 5-way with flakes. Round. B|

Sat was a bit slow but got to meet another member of the Evil Empire who has arrived at Snohomish from Orange in Mass. Got in a few jumps with him. Shut out today.. the low clouds have returned to the Seattle area and we finally shut down the record books with our all time streak of 61 days above the 70 degree mark. ( Hey this is BIG NEWS in Seattle) For those of you sweltering in 100 degree heat all summer.. eat your hearts out.:P

Only so far......I'm off Monday and Tuesdays this month. Heading to the DZ tomorrow. B|



I lied....left work on time at 5, and made it to the dz in time to make one jump!!!

BTW - has anyone else noticed Clay's secret sig line?

pssst..

a little bird told me there was twice as many nekkid boys as nekkid girls in the pool and one whom will remain nameless (and probably hung the fuck over) was quite adept at keeping a disproportionate number of said boys occupied.

but you dint hear that from me:)
namaste, motherfucker.

:) Let's just say that the Everything To Do With Love show was...beneficial! : 3 : 1

3 coach jumps--had an awesome running exit out of the CASA on my third jump. I was supposed to chase my coach around the sky, but I discovered that REALLY need to work on my forward movement and tracking. :S I can play the fall rate game really well, though!

1 case of beer (PAID) for landing in the runway. After I gathered up my canopy and ran behind an otter mock-up, I found the DZOs wife waiting behind there, half-naked! :o Apparently she and a friend were doing a lingerie observer ride with the "really hot CASA pilots." :D As she was explaining this to me, half-naked, she stowed my toggles for me. She rules! B|
