Antithesis 0 #7 August 6, 2002 I'll believe it when I see it on video. I was at the WFFC Thursday through Sunday and only saw people in the DZ.COM tent once.

I just got back and we tried a 14 way on the first attempt and a 17 on the second. I flew video on the first and we clocked in at 185 mph for the max. Yep... Funnelled out the ramp, but it rebuilt FAST, but the base never rebuilt all the way so it did'nt count. Try 2 was an interesting dive. Poor Bill Von was the organizer of this one. We proved you can't spell DropZone with out a Z and 2 O's on that one. If we had another try after reasigning slots and only going for 11 people... we had it but if you were a poster... there was NO way we would EVER think about not putting you on the load. We had 60-how ever many Bill has jumps on all the loads. BTW... SeaMonkey is the shit Chuck... you have one HELL of a roommate.

Yep, we had plenty of talent there, but we would have had to cut 4-5 people to get a successful dive, and cutting people just isn't what the WFFC is all about.

That was the 16 way attempt, right? Funnel is an understatement. The base blew apart out the door.....I just hung up high watching people flying in circles till breakoff. The 14 was much more interesting. Me, being a floater that never did anything bigger than 4 way was unprepared for what a formation does as it builds......yea, the floater went low.....waaaay low......smoked right by the base in fact. Next time I'll know what to expect, and have considerably more experience as an added bonus. Thanks all for the opportunity. It's not often someone with ~70 jumps gets on 2 record attempts in the same day.
