quade 4 #9 August 8, 2002 Hey, forget about your new gear for a minute. When are we going to see the ESPN piece? Did they give you an air date? Even more importantly, did you manage to stand up all your landings for them?quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #11 August 8, 2002 Quote What's green, purple and yellow Those are the Mardi Gras colors, but it's the wrong time of year. So, I'm guessing it's a new canopy or jumpsuit for the ESPN gig.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michele 1 #12 August 8, 2002 Yes, the ESPN thing was yesterday. I'll get something up about that later - I'm still in overload - both good and bad - and frankly have a serious case of Dragon Ass today. I think a nap is in order! My green, purple and yellow surprise was, sadly, not free, and has been gently loved and well taken care of. It is not a jumpsuit, nor a new pair of shoes...A Spectre 210, inspected and in excellent condition, which I bought through a "connection" here on these boards...and got a stupendous deal on it, too, even though I am not exactly ready for it...2 toesies landings on the 230 does not make me ready for the new, smaller canopy - one more day of stand-ups, and I may be willing to try it. My rigger checked it out, and told me "grab it, darlin', it don't get better than this". It has 203 jumps on it, and while I am thrilled with it, I am dismayed, too...I took it out of the cardboard box (24x24), and it took 20 freakin' minutes to get it to go back in. I am NEVER going to get it into a d-bag. But I love it! Thanks, Phree! And yay, Quinten - the check's going in tomorrow's mail.l Thanks for the deal!

Lindsey 0 #21 August 8, 2002 Hey, BBBB....I hear ya', woman! A couple weeks ago I came slidin' in on my bare knees at about 40 mph.....finally healed.....then crashed in a bean field last weekend. Prior to that, Ihad not fallen down in more than 400 jumps!!!!! Yeah....humble pie! LOL BUT I must say that it didn't cross my mind that green, purple, and yellow were anything but gear for Michelle.... I think this girl's got her timing down now.... just don't get cocky, chick!

Michele 1 #24 August 9, 2002 Hey, Lins! Quotejust don't get cocky, chick! Oh no, I am still not ready for it. I figure at least one more day in the 230 standing them all up, and then perhaps, if the wind is right, I shall try it out. But man-oh-man, I want to see my own canopy over my head...I need to fly it a few times before I take the canopy control class, just to get a little used to it, anyway. And sorry, didn't mean to scare anyone with the colorful title...and yes, it does resemble my body, now that I think about it...(still pretty apparent bruising...10 days later. yikes!)
