pyke 0 #2 September 8, 2003 That would be NOICE....'cept that nobody has seen pics of this jump. It was covered by Dave Wherley, but the author tried many times to get pics sent to her for the spread...apparently nobody turned them into Skykat or something - but there are none to speak of. And, it wasn't as glamourous as the article made it out to be, unfortunately! Just as they hit the second point in the hybrid (going into the stand) - s. lee's dytter went off and the ff's bailed...so I doubt there were any good pics other than a 10 way BFR. Sorry chopchop! Now, what's this I hear about you possibly coming out here in Oct. That would rock!! I know that celljumper would LOVE IT!! Can't wait to party with you all!

chopchop 0 #3 September 8, 2003 I see... no wonder there was no noise about it here.. It was just fluff for Parachutist.. Oh, well.. hopefully we'll do something cool at the Byron Boogie and document it properly.. The west coast folks on dropzone.com can definitely do better than a 6-way. When are we supposed to be out there in Oct. again? Probably time to start planning my trip.. chopchop gotta go... Plaything needs a spanking..

LouDiamond 1 #4 September 8, 2003 Dave has the footage of everything that went on that weekend. In fact there is a 4th of july mix tape sitting in the school of the original footage and the edited final version that I think he made. It's pretty kick ass but rather long to make into a MPEG/WMV/AVI"It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkymonkeyONE 4 #6 September 9, 2003 I was a hanger on that dive, and yes, Stephen left just as we got "hung" so I didn't really pay it any attention. More to the fun point were the raft dives and the large BirdMan flocks we threw down. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chopchop 0 #7 September 9, 2003 That tends to be a problem when you have a large base.. If anything happens on exit, it takes so long to rebuild, the jumps is over by the time the base gets "up to speed" so to speak. So... what were you guys trying to build, anyway? 5 belly fliers with 5 hangers? chopchop gotta go... Plaything needs a spanking..
