Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites CornishChris 5 #11 April 3, 2007 I hope you get better weather than we are having here at the moment. 8 jumps in 3 days and raining today. Managed to consume my body weight in Cerveza every day though. The new bunk houses are also pretty cool and we got 15,800 feet on one jump yesterday - 78 seconds of freefall.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites shropshire 0 #20 May 25, 2007 Update.... the long weekend went great for us (so sorry, not so for one lad on the beach). I got 8 in (some windy conditions slowed us down) jumped my 200th with some good mates. The sit is coming together (NOT). Colin is current again and jumping well (too well - Bastard!!). Keep it up lad. Riggy & Scoop got their 50th in (both were 4 way Horny Gs... loads of giggles). Thanks for making a great time in the sun gang (.)Y(.)

I can now do the splits pretty effectively after you guys nearly pulled my legs off After you guys left I busted out loads of jumps on my back and can now hold a stable on heading sit for the duration of a dive. Probably backsliding like a bitch but I don't know yet as only did solos. What a great developmental trip. Also had one extra dive of note. Linked flat exit, released, mate went into a sit and was just carving around me. Was sweet. What wasn't sweet was the uppers were howling and we had to hitch hike twice to get back to the dropzone. 15 min drive so must have been a fair way off Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites shropshire 0 #22 May 25, 2007 > - BwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaHEver think about looking down in freefall? Glad that you enjoyed the trip. We'll do it agaion later in the year. (.)Y(.)
