Summersault

Did my first summersault out the door today. Cool.

Ordinary's..... just not good enough today.

When you get a chance and a few more jumps, try rolling a tube out the door. This is not a freefly tube, what I mean is that 3 or 4 people get caterpillar grips on each other, forming a loop/circle back on itself. One person has to lie on their back with their knees at the edge of the door, the others then move in over the top to complete the grips, usually grabbing the leg straps instead of grippers. Then you just roll it out the door. It is really easy with tailgate planes, just slightly harder with a side door. It is really fun to see ground-sky rotating around so fast, and you are looking at your friends laughing along with you. When you want it to stop, everyone can let go of the same side grip to make a donut formation.

People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

Still got a scar on my leg from trying that with 5 people out of an Otter. My buddy on that jump never found his shoe, either.

Where is that picture?

I remember many years ago some guys (maybe british) were taking a few rows linked together out of a C-130. Doing 3 rows out of a skyvan is certainly more ambitious.

Evillurker: No way would I have tried a 5 way tube out of an otter, silly person!

Yeah, you tell me that now. I wondered why they put me last in line. I think I figured it out. Pretty good practical joke, actually.

You're all insane, and I greatly respect that.

Thanks for the link to skydiving movies. Didn't know about that one. There's some great stuff there. My wife is doing her first tandem Sunday. I'm really enjoying watching her watch some of those videos !!
