Head 0 #1 April 13, 2001 I just looked at fruce's webpage pics of canopy pilots. BTW, fruce, kickass website! Got a question for you kiddies...do you know any female extreme canopy pilots? I'm the only chick at my dz that can keep up with the boys and I want to hear from some other sister swoopers!Head Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albatross 0 #2 April 13, 2001 I don't know if we want to go back this way but last time this area come up we spent a week trying to decide if women had problems landing much less swooping. If you can go for it.Blue Skys and Safe LandingsAlbatross Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fruce 0 #3 April 13, 2001 Head....... (why do I feel like I'm addressing my own member?)....anyway, I haven't heard of any at the larger swoop events, however, I know chics that totally rock under canopy, so it's just a matter of time... maybe you?..... frucehttp://www.fruce.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybytch 273 #9 April 13, 2001 Hey Head, I'm the skybytch and I SUCK at landing canopies. Glad to know there's some women out there who can swoop the pond. Keep it up, I'll be rooting for you at the swoop events! pull and flare,lisa Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLFXpert 0 #11 April 13, 2001 Head,I know of a couple girls that rock. One is a good friend from Skydive Daytona. Her name is Kaz Sheiky and she is a camera-flyer, freeflyer, you name it. She can swoop *very* well. Also, there is a girl whom I don't know personally but have seen in Deland and my b/f tells me she is a pioneer swooper and is well-known for it. I'm sorry but I do not remember her name. Just know that she jumps in Deland.As for me, I'm not even close but I hope to be soon. Maybe by next year? (summer after this coming one.) My b/f is an awesome swooper, camera-flyer, freeflyer, RW, ext. ext. so I'm trying to suck up as much of his skills as possible. Freeflying has come naturally but I seem to be canopy-impaired at this pointI'm stoked to hear about a chick out there kicking ass (you) under canopy. That is the sole reason why I'd like to get into it b/c I am attracted to things there aren't many girls doing. That's awesome you are swooping ponds! Maybe down the road you can give me some pointers. I'm taking it slow and steady at this point but I'll get there....ha ha ha.Much love and blue skies,Carrie http://www.geocities.com/skydivegrl20/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VivaHeadDown 0 #17 April 13, 2001 I admire chicks with "skills", but be careful not to admire too much or they get creeped out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
