FallRate 0 #1 August 20, 2001 I haven't been around Richmond much lately, but I am definitely looking forward to "THE" Boogie. First, I'd like to start a thread dealing with anything Richmond related. So if you have anything to say, start here! Second, I'd like to know who wants to take advantage of the extra sleeping space I will have in my van during the boogie! Terms are negotiable. :)FallRate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mountainman 0 #2 August 20, 2001 Hey FR.....I'll surely be at Richmond from Wed-Sun. That is gonna be a blast man. Do you normally jump there?? If so, does everyone there call you "fallrate"??Eitherway, I am gonna be there this coming weekend, the week of The Boogie and then the following weekend. I am going to be demoing canopies during the boogie, so that should be a blast. See you out there!!--------------Drop on in...leave a message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vallerina 2 #9 August 21, 2001 So, I got my little pamphlet in the mail about Richmond, and it mentioned tons of fun fun organizers. Are there many organizers for low-time skydivers such as myself? Also, is it really starting this Sunday? That would rock if it did! I could go Sunday, go back to school during the week, and then go back for more fun stuff Friday!"To alcohol!

mountainman 0 #14 August 21, 2001 QuoteAre there many organizers for low-time skydivers such as myself?I am pretty sure there will be plenty of organizing for us low-timers. I only have 16 now and will have maybe 20 by boogie time. From what I hear, there will be plenty for everyone.QuoteAlso, is it really starting this Sunday?I think it starts on Wednesday (next week) and then goes until the following Tuesday. However, you can always go jump on Sunday anyway and get your juices flowing early.--------------Drop on in...leave a message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
