I'm back & my 500th :)

[AggieDave 6]

Yup, back from the Jackass Boogie at Eagle Flight Skydiving (granbury, TX).

It was a BLAST, I got a lot of jumps and had a great time. Did some FF did some RW and some wacked out/odd dives.

Did one where we tried to get A-ron to spock me going head down with me on my belly. It almost worked, I did 169mph on my belly, but wasn't *real* stable (potato chipping) so it didn't happen.

Even tried a reverse Hybrid, with me on my back and someone HD holding on to my chest strap. I had the fall rate for it, but it didn't launch clean and went downhill from there. It was still a fun/funny dive, though.

Did my first balloon jump there, that was great.

For my 500th, I did a 2 way RW dive with Perry Perkins (from SD Dallas), a fun dive (dive the door...2-way, left compressed, right compressed, 360--wash, rinse repeat). Only got 10 points, but it was still a great dive.

Well, wish me luck, on Tuesday I start the course for a TM rating (RWS).


I hope everyone else had a kick ass weekend too.

Not just a fatass, but one that can fall like an ICBM aimed at a communist dictator!

funny.... as conceptually that should be an oxymoron

Landing without injury is not necessarily evidence that you didn't fuck up... it just means you got away with it this time
