billo 0 #102 September 4, 2002 I had such a great weekend!!! what happens at Couch Freaks stays at couch Freaks : 21 : 1 What a weekend! Jumped 7 days straight - from the one sunset load on Wednesday to the morning load today (Tuesday) as the otters headed off for Chicago. You can't beat a load to 16.5 AGL for free! The boogie was great aside from the fact that i had to work. I saw Paula when she registered, but after that she vanished! (maybe i saw you at the naked windsock races? i don't know, i had alot to drink) I think every part of my body is hurting. Monday marked the 21st day of my drinking binge...i started early so that i would be ready for the boogie. It worked - i stayed up late all the time and still made my jumps! Sorry to anyone who i may have hit with the golf cart...they should have moved! Oh the beer is for the 17 way belly dive that i was on, my biggest formation to date. It was supposed to be 21 with 2 camera, but the 3 girls and one guy went low. It was still a blast - all club members! Anyhow, must get some sleep.... b Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpeedRacer 1 #103 September 4, 2002 Has anyone else noticed that, quite often, the numbers in the first category interefere with numbers in the second, and vice versa? Like last week my numbers were something like 12:0:0, b/c I didn't go to the dropzone b/c I knew I was going to get laid. ( imean I love skydiving as much as anyone, but a man has to have his priorities) If I'm at the DZ, the only women there are either married or already girlfriends (often of other skydivers). So female skydivers can get both numbers on the same weekend, but its hard for guys Huh huh ... he said "hard" Does anyone else out there have this experience??

Jessica 0 #105 September 4, 2002 5 great days with Eric:2:1 Beer is for making my first CReW dock. Less scary than taking a dock, I found out. Whee! The only complaint I have about Skydive Temple is that the DZO locks up the bathrooms way too early. WAY too early. Otherwise, it's a great little DZ. We spent the rest of the week tubing, zooing, cooking, eating, River Walking, Love Boat watching, sleeping, engaging in parrot combat, and all kinds of fun things. Skydiving is for cool people only Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhreeZone 20 #111 September 4, 2002 1 chunk taken out of my finger by a parrot:3:1 2 3 stack roatation jumps with some hot shit dawgs (I counted 4 on the first and 7 on the second). 1 clear and pull at 3 for the hit and chug. Beer is owed for being the first time I swooped OVER some one... Went right about 30 degrees and up about 6 feet to make it work... but only fell to the side running it out. Stood up and chugged the beer Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
