BillyVance 35 #1 June 23, 2008 Today is my 15th Skybirthday. Made a tandem at the old Skydive North Alabama DZ in Hazel Green. Sure, the jumps have slowed down significantly as life as gotten in the way, but I ain't done yet.

Well, I've achieved just about everything I set out to do. I hold a number of deaf world records, state records in both RW and CRW, earned a slot on a 300 way world record attempt, did the WFFC at least once, once skydived on all three US coasts within a month's time, seen my share of fatalities, lost a number of friends to the sport, broken a wrist on an otter door on exit, and if I was a cat, I've probably used up 7 or 8 of my 9 lives. I just skydive for fun now.
