Casch 0 #3 October 9, 2002 Yeah, I jump in WA at Kapowsin. Love the DZ but I just wish we had better winter jumping weather, summers are great though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wlie 0 #4 October 9, 2002 Winter's when you work on your written tests and do hop-n-pops to jack up your jumps numbers dude!At $8-9 a jump for a hop-n-pop during the winter, you'll save lots of money for new gear, and most importanly - BEER! at the end of the day. My other ride is the relative wind. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casch 0 #5 October 9, 2002 LOL, that's funny! 17 yo drivin up with beer for the DZ (although they didn't card me last time when my mom was in line behind me). Actually I'm not sure if I will even have my A license before winter starts. I hope so...I am on jump #11 in the staticline course, I just did a 15 second delay. I should hopefully have my license by the end of the month or mid november (crossing fingers). Working part-time at a movie rental joint at min-wage doesn't pull in a whole lot, and each month my entire paycheck goes to pay off my credit card with which I have a habbit of going overboard with when it comes to skydiving (that's why I set a $500 limit...I don't trust myself) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Casch 0 #11 October 9, 2002 I Found Kapowsin before I found Eugene and also Kapowsin was the first DZ I found that accepted parental consent for minors, I know now that Eugene accepts it also, but it's only an hour closer (Forest Grove is about 20-30mins out of portland) and I have really become acquainted with the people and the DZ itself. That and I am still on student status so I don't want to leave yet. ALSO, my mom has decided to become a jumper too...she always copies me...and she lives in Spokane WA (I am a Washingtonian at heart) so it is more convienient for her. I haven't heard anything about a court case...care to enlighten me? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hooked 0 #12 October 9, 2002 The only court case I know about, you can find here on the home page under DZ news. It concerns the alcohol permit and airport residents unhappy about Kapowsin. It is an old article though. Kapowsin is a great DZ. Everyone is very friendly there. Good for your Mom wanting to skydive too. I have done 4 tandems there and want to do SL or AFF there.
