cloud9 0 #1 May 11, 2001 Dear DZ.commersI am sorry to have to bring this to your attention, but I feel compeled to clean up this sport. It has come to my attention that some of you are pulling your PUD in freefall. I truely can't understand this type of behavior in presence of your friends. I understand that its mostly the freeflyers who are PUD pullers, but some are even into RW (that means they're touching you) and some are even canopy swoopers. I heard just the other day a load of jumpers went out at 13,500 to do a cross country and someone on that load pulled his PUD. Or should I say someone pulled his PUD for that load? Anyway this discusting habit has just got to stop. Your giving our sport a bad name and think of the kiddies! Cum'on one guy was even on video pulling his PUD. Now that's just to much!! So you PUD pullers had better beware cause there is a group watching you. And I'll tell you another thing... wait a minute someone is trying to tell me something. A PUD is not what..... its a what...... OH!!! never mind!!Have some great jumps over the weekend.Bleau Skies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And getting it pulled by someone else isn't nearly as much fun!!Blues, squares,PTiger Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
