Snowflake 0 #1 August 17, 2001 As I sit here at 8 am getting ready to go to work. I realize I'm starting to feel ill (I'll probably have to leave work early today). NIN is jamming "I was up above it now I'm down in it"(kinda fitting huh?). I've taken my half hour shower (it takes a half hour cause I have to practice form in the shower my track is looking good) and I'm ready to get at least a falcon this weekend. I will not be overwhelmed by my four way tasks this weekend. I will kick ass and take names (as good as a newbie like me can). I wanna know one thing people "ARE YOU READY TO RUMBLE!!!! Yehaaaaaa the weekend is here so forget your problems grab your gear and get your ass to the DZ. Now I must go to work and look miserable for a while and then get the flock outta there. See ya in the airBlue Skies & Soft LandingsJG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mountainman 0 #2 August 17, 2001 hhaha......i do that same shit in the weirdest places. I remember I had a thread this past April/May about when I stick my head out my car window going about 80 just to get the sensation of freefall. *sigh* The good 'ol days......--------------Drop on in...leave a message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallingMarc 0 #3 August 17, 2001 Sweet, I'm not the only one...!

What's really funny is whenever you get a sudden blast of air from anywhere but straight ahead, you instinctively arch..

When I first got my helmet I wore it at a party I threw ( being really drunk ) and asking everyone,[voice of Warren from there is something about mary] " Have you seen my wiener? " ,[/voice of Warren from there is something about mary] Skydiving equipment doesnt even need to be for skydiving to be good for something...CHRis Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aviatrr 0 #7 August 17, 2001 Quote ...especially w/ your helmet and goggles on. It looks even funnier when somebody is wandering around(usually more than just slightly drunk) with a camera helmet on.. I haven't done it yet with mine, but I'm sure the day will come..Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mountainman 0 #8 August 17, 2001 That would be awesome to wear the camera helmet around a party with it on. You could surely get some good footage. If so, post it!!--------------Drop on in...leave a message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkydiveMonkey 0 #9 August 17, 2001 Quote I stick my head out my car window going about 80 just to get the sensation of freefall. It's when you look down and keep shouting 5 left to the driver of the car with no seats in that you know you're going a bit too far (is there such a thing?) Don't pull low, unless you are Alex@SkydiveUPSC.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HotLoad 0 #10 August 17, 2001 I'm incredibly jealous Snowflake. Ten dollar Otter loads and a pig roast........man, I'm pissed. I have the privilege of working Sat morning, so I can't go. You'd better get that falcon with all that altitude to work with.....good luck. I was actually hoping we could get a jump in together (can you say hybrid?), but I guess it will have to wait. Jason (the guy I was down there with w/ the goatee) will be down there with a couple of other guys, if you get a chance, jump with him. He's a pretty good flier, just don't tell him I said that. Rip one in the plane for me! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #11 August 17, 2001 No...it's going down the road with the sliding door of the rental minivan open and doing door checks (military static line style) Hanging your body outside while only holding on with your finger tips. Caution- Cops hate this.....especially when in Kingston Canada and leaving a trail of empty beer cans. Damn Canuks have no since of humor!"I've got pieces of corn in my crap bigger than him" -Fat BastardClay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
