Michele 1 #26 September 6, 2001 I ahve had many dreams about skydiving, but there have been two nightmares which have woken me from a sound (?) sleep, and have stayed with me.The first was watching someone drop out of the sky. He was pulling and pulling and pulling and nothing. He was about 500 feet, when he finally went for silver, and he pulled, and a malformed reserve came out - it had wings, and holes, and things like little chutes all over it. It slowed him enough to land.The worst, though, was this: I was asked on a 507 way, and everyone had matching suits and canopies. We turned and tracked away, and there were canopies opening all over. I couldn't find a clear place to pull. I would dart this way, then that, and it was just more of the same: canopies, canopies, canopies, over, under, beside me were these identical canopies. I just tracked, turned, tracked more, turned, tracked. I kept looking at my alti, and I was getting really low, and still had no clear space. Sort of like the running away dream, but flying, instead. Shudder......ciels-M"What of the dreams that never die? Turn to your left at the end of the sky". ~e e cummings~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lazerq3 0 #28 September 6, 2001 QuoteI had a dream once where my main malfunctioned so I chopped it and the round reserve (ugh!) didn't open fully and I woke up about 2 seconds before I would have gone in. Well scaryman I had that same dream... only I landed the round partially opened and then my chute and free bag was right in front of me. My latest dream was that I was at a DZ and they were hooking jumpers up to the ends of the wings, flying over a tree at about 50ft and drop the jumpers into the tree to learn how to climb out only the plane crashed into the tree and it was all crazy then my little girl came in the room and woke me up! Even though I've had a fare share of skydiving dreams I love every one of them. even if it does scare the shit outa me cause then you wake up and go phew...ony a dream!!!jason Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
