FallinWoman 1 #1 February 25, 2002 0:5:0Saturday was great...warm temps for the midwest this time of year, good wind. Made four great jumps, including a hop and pop from 7,500.....Tina and I jumped together and deployed at about the same altitude, so we spend some time chasing each other around the sutset sky. It was quite beautiful.Today...watched the anamometer (sp?) and the 35 mph gusts....made a hop and pop (from 4) for the sunset load.....Great openings, five landings on my feet....all in all a sweet weekend!How was yours?Anne Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndyMan 7 #4 February 25, 2002 0:1:0Jumping on saturday, skiing, then watching the hockey game on Sunday.The ski trip was highlighted by turning on the airconditioning in the car on the way back to chicago - IN FEBRUARY. To say it was slushy might be the understatement of the year._AmICQ: 5578907MSN Messenger: andrewdmetcalfe at hotmail dot com Yahoo IM: ametcalf_1999 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

indyz 1 #6 February 25, 2002 0:0:0I kept checking Saturday's forecast during the week and it looked like bad jumping weather. I didn't even bother seeing if anybody else from the club was going down. D'oh. Maybe next weekend to celebrate the end of midterms.--BrianHomepageAIM: suprmath Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Geoff 0 #18 February 25, 2002 Pretty bad weather here in England. did one Hop-n-pop from 4000ft cloudbase - it was snowing on exit and raining by the time we landed. That's real hard British skydiving! Who needs Deland or Eloy? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skreamer 1 #21 February 25, 2002 3:1:0Another low lob on Saturday - still not sure it was worth it. Phuqing cold and strong winds with turbulence. Hmmm, 5 of my last 7 jumps have been hop n pops - I love skydiving in the UK..... "Don't die until you're dead" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
