flyhi 24 #27 September 5, 2002 QuoteSometimes we pay for beer........ I think when you say that, you should to preface it with, "Once upon a time..." That should put it in the proper perspective.Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skygirlpc 0 #28 September 5, 2002 I don't know why these other girls aren't getting all that special treatment, but I know that I'll admit to it. And even to enjoying it! Can I help it if I save a little money and I've never had to flash anybody! Never will!

meatmissile 0 #29 September 5, 2002 Jasmin and Skygirlpc - thanks for the honesty! I assume that the "pc" at the end of Skygirlpc does not stand for politically correct . Some advice to the girls claiming that they do not get preferential treatment at their DZ's - get another DZ (joking ). I have never been to any DZ where the old hands didn't "help" any girl to the point where she actually started feeling scared. If you like not receiving preferential treatment, and don't - good for you. To the sheep-afficionado's: Whatever puts a skip in your walk. Come to think of it, I'm glad I'm not a girl after all. The feminist movement would have put a price on my head! -- ZZZzzzz.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

happythoughts 0 #31 September 5, 2002 "I know its sexual discimination when only girls are able to flash for extra height" There is a KingAir pilot named Johanna. We were asking about extra altitude. She said if she saw 12 inches, she'd take us up. Fortunately, my 4-way team was able to come up with that. Besides, I know of one case where a girl flashed the pilot and he took us down 500 ft. "the guy feels my leg strap..." Sounds like a unique case. This doesn't happen a lot. You may be blessed with an unbelievably cute rear. In order to correctly offer my opinion, post a pic and I will review it. Don't worry, I am a high trained professional. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

happythoughts 0 #33 September 5, 2002 "advantage of being an RW" I understand. With RW, I get to touch others. For Freefliers, I guess they just touch themselves. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #34 September 5, 2002 QuoteI guess they just touch themselves. Nope...they are doing it all wrong. I touch others every jump. Thats why I enjoy jumping with Caryn and Jenn so much!!!! They are good free fliers so I get to touch them LOTS. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
happythoughts 0 #35 September 5, 2002 Well, it didn't happen if you don't have video. Do you have any video of them touching each other ? A while back, I wanted Rickerby to do a painting for me. He said that he wanted to do a skydive with me first. He said "I been doing freeflying now. I don't take grips or turn points." A couple of years later, I asked how many points the freefliers were turning, he said "No points dude, we're not into that." Now you see freefliers dirtdiving things that have names and organizing 10-ways. Things have certainly changed. Do RW myself, but that's because I'm an old fart. I have started saying "dude" a lot though, so I feel it's a step in right direction. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
