A Little Synergy....

Recommended Posts

Yeah, Merrick....I remember seeing that last year also....it was a good site, but not as awesome as this site has become.....
And just think -- this home we call "Dropzone.com" sprang from the imagination of a young South African boy as he played on the veldt, dreaming of skydiving, dreaming of moving to San Francisco, dreaming of creating his very own website and transforming it into this....
Okay....maybe I got ALL of that wrong, but it sounded good !
FYI for all the new folks here....Sangiro and Dropzone.com were written up in a peice in Parachutist late last year (I think). It made for interesting reading, and described the transition from a page to let friends talk about their first jumps into a full-blown website....you might check it out if you can find it.....

Well, Anne, I don't think he is, personally !
And I just ran a search in the old forums....the article was in last November's issue of Parachutist ( I think...I wrote the following at the time...). I guess people DON'T change that much as they age, or, at the least, they write the same senseless crap over and over !

"Kudos to Sangiro"
Hi fellow misfits--
Has everyone checked out the article about dropzone.com in the new issue of Parachuting Magazine, and the interview with our fearless moderator? (It's pretty interesting--the story of the poor country boy who has a dream, works hard to make it a reality, and suceeds beyond his wildest dreams, etc.... ) Actually, nothing like that, but it was interesting to me to learn of our forum's humble beginnings, and of the growth it has achieved in a relatively short time.
Hats off to Sangiro for a job well done, and maybe now, since we know your REAL name, you can tell us where " Sangiro " came from.
