Dude. I heard you were dead!? What a pic. This is Mark Frye(aka French Frye) and that pic brings back a lot of memories. The old Coonass skydivers. I talk to Sonny about once a year and Tim Garlington less than that. Just wanted to drop you a line and say whats up, and it's good to see you are still jumping(and alive). I still make about 20 a year, haven't given it up and won't as long as old friends will still jump with me. I live in Ft. Worth now and have two kids. Have a great one and BS, BD!!!

Thanks

hey...The Herbie Hog had the pilot chute pouch on the riser....it was easy to throw out,and was cutaway eliminating the horseshoe mal...if it got stuck in the pouch.I really liked it because in freefall it was right next to your head easy to see and grab.Alot of closed minded people thought it was sport death....but they didnt look at the practicality of it.It was just "different". At least there werent people bouncing with a twisted bellyband like the wonderhog started out with!

Hi, Don. Long time, no see. Not sure if you remember me, but Ralph and I were roommates for a while and I started jumping at Tech. I have no idea where Ralph is these days. You could probably contact Tim Garlington, he still lives in Ruston. He may know. BS, BD, "french fry"
