SpeedRacer 1 #1 May 25, 2001 Hey everyone!While visiting my brothers up in Somerville MA (near Boston), I got my older brother's girlfriend, Alex, to do her first skydive at Pepperell! She loved it! Just look at her smile in freefall:Alex in freefallAnd here is the endorphin-induced high after landing from that first jump:Alex just after landingYEEHAW!! My first convert! (I wonder, does that mean I owe beer, or does she owe beer?) There's NOTHING like that first jump!!Speed RacerBrew Skies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PalmettoTiger 1 #2 May 25, 2001 Well, you said the f-word 5 times in that post, so I'm thinking somebody owes A LOT of beer! j/k.. according to the beer rules first jump is not a mandatory purchase but it is strongly encouraged.Blues, squares,PTiger Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpeedRacer 1 #5 May 25, 2001 In answer to the above question: My older brother's gf was the only person I know who is crazy enough to try skydiving!Only problem with Pepperell is you usually have to pack outdoors.But while I was there one of the old timers there came up & showed me some quick packing tips..Wish I could have stayed & gotten all those techniques down pat, but I had a long drive back to Maryland.But while he was teaching me, I was really reminded that I was back in Massachusetts:"yeah, you just bring these fuckin' lines ovah heah like this, see, and then you don't need to fuck with that shit ovah theah...."ROTFL!! I'm home!!Speed Racer"De plaene!! De plaene!!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
