Zennie 0 #1 April 23, 2001 Yesterday was one of those skydiving days that's going to be hard to beat! I jumped my own rig for the first time. I got my SCR (with Scotty Carbone organizing & presiding over the ceremonies) and my Eagle award. The SCR was a 9-way that alomost became an Eagle dive, but we missed the second point. The next jump we went for the Eagle and got a 2-point 10-way. This was also my first foray into big-ways (i.e. something bigger than a 4-way ).Yes, know that's a ton of beer for one day, but I brought out a keg that morning, so I'm good for a while. Hope everyone else had a great weekend!------------Blue Skies!Zennie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miked10270 0 #3 April 23, 2001 Hey Zennie,Nice one... Unfortunately, knowing Scotty as I do (BTW did he get the badge for his chef's hat or do I gotta fly out to AZ with another one?) I feel It falls on me to confirm whether yo got the points... or did you accept a "sip" of Scotty's "Orange Juice" on the way up?!!Just checking you didn't do the 20 point 80 way out of a C-182,206,000 with a purple & orange sky with 79 smiley faces... Say "Hi to Scotty from me (althrough I doubt he remembers me from '00 @ Coolige) & reassure him that if I ever get famous he's STILL my Readers Digest "Most Unforgettable Person".Mike D10270.

I've got the video. Quoteif I ever get famous he's STILL my Readers Digest "Most Unforgettable Person".Mine too. He's one of the most unforgettable (if not the most) people I've ever met (in a good way). And he makes a darned good brisket!------------Blue Skies!Zennie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ramon 0 #5 April 23, 2001 Congratulations!It will be hard to beat that weekend for a while. Many times Scotty's loads don't go so well, but alas...he does organize bigs ones for the newbies all the time. Often if some deguello team mebers and some more experienced jumpers are there to help the lower time jumpers, the loads go off great.glad you had funramon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
