Unutsch 0 #12 December 3, 2002 winter doesn't suck that much, it's actually my favourite time of the year! and guess what, it snowed last night!!! well, only Pohorje is covered with snow, but still, it's an overwhelming feeling to see a mountain covered with fresh white snow! Can't wait till it's snow everywhere!!! I really hope we'll be making some winter jumps this year again, 'cause there ain't no nicer pictures then freeflyers doing their thing over a snow covered area, with blueskies and sunshine in their face. So what the f*** if it's cold, just wear 27 layers of warm cloths and JUMP!!!

ladyskydiver 0 #14 December 3, 2002 Quote It's almost down to fifty degrees here. Talk about sub-arctic chill. You poor thing. I can understand why you'd think you were enjoying a sub-artic chill. Of course, when I got up this morning, it was 14F and with wind chill, it feels like 2F. Oh...yeah...and it was snowing. LOL But...if it's jumpable this weekend, YIPPEE!!! Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you smile. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Geez...with plane tickets down to a $200 round trip (that's $84,000,000 Canadian), it is almost silly to stand around in the Great White North and whine about cold/snow when you could be skydiving in 70 deg weather. (Disclaimer - Yes, it did get down to the 60's at night last weekend) Come down for the Christmas-New Years week. Light a bonfire and party. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
