First 4 Stack @ Spaceland!

Recommended Posts

Crossposted from the CRW forum...
That's right folks! We haven't really had much CRW activity, but that's starting to change.
Our own Jumperpaula was part of the first 4-stack built over Skydive Spaceland yesterday. My rig was also part of the stack. Unfortunately I wasn't in it at the time. ;)

Thanks to Eli, Rich Delgado and James from San Marcos. You guys make it seem sooo easy.
It was nice to generate an interest in CRW on the DZ too. People with thousands of jumps were telling me they have never done CRW and it looked fun.
Thanks Pippy for working us in on that load. I understand a scene was made and the drama was not necessary. I didn't know any of that until last night after I got home. So, THANK YOU for working it out.
The canopy under me didn't have cross connectors on the risers, so as the stack built I started to slide up the lines. By the time the 4th canopy docked, I was riding all the way up by the cascades. My ankles were killing me as the tention on the lines cut through my jumpsuit booties. Tennis shoes and jeans would have been real real nice about then.
What fun.....am I ready for my Down Plane now?

lets work on it though and get it right! it was still mucho fun!


Hehehe. I haven't been on a zoo load in a while. :D
But yeah, the horse throws ya, you get back on. I just need practice taking the grips. Once we get it, it'll be badass. If we can get a stable, reliable base going, we can start adding stingers & other cool stuff.

I was over in Manifest and if it would have been me there I would have set Maifest on fire and left it for road kill.
People were yelling their orders out like it was Burger King. I know there for a minute I was about to break out the numb chuck things and crouch like a dragon or something....
Rude! Who raised some of those people? I was going to start throwing Pip Punches.... McSwings and misses...whew... Pip Punch WhackaEllie.... AirAnn action figure sold seperatly
I dont know why I get into SO much trouble minding my own business....... hummm..... does it follow me around. ......
I dont have a middle name- but if I did Daddy said it might be "Trouble". :S

I was afraid the whole manifest fubar would overshadow the accomplishment.
But I appreciate the difficulty of the job and the situation we were in this weekend at the DZ.
The tandems needed to get done and the weathered out students needed to stay current more than me. There are plenty of days at the DZ where I can get on a load anytime I want. ONE WEEKEND of backed up DZ business isn't the end of the world. Again, I feel bad that those organizing my load caused Drama in an already stressful day.
It's easy for me to be patient because I know the money made is going right back into the DZ. Thanks Spaceland for providing a nice place to jump and constantly improving the facilities for us.
Not a DZ.com record, but yes My First 4-Stack. Way Cool!

Was your daddy a green eyed mountain jack? ;)
