ridetofly 0 #1 February 26, 2004 I was looking for some examples of 20 ways. You know the typical stick man sketches. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Aaron Live as you will want to have lived... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
airgord 1 #2 February 26, 2004 They haven't done 20 way at the Nat'ls here since the late 90's but someone might still have copies of the old dive pool and post them for you. Try the USPA and see if they're archived somewhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sdctlc 0 #3 February 26, 2004 My copy of Freefalling Together #1 for 2 to 20 ways has 60 x 20 way formation noted. I can try and get them up to ya. But then I would have to figure how to merge multiple scans into one or two... Maybe somebody already has done it?? Let me look into it! Scott C."He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"

prost 0 #5 February 27, 2004 I have a copy of that book as well but no scanner here. If no one else can post them I will try to get them scanned at school or when I am back at the dropzone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luminous 0 #6 March 2, 2004 I had the same question recently and besides the "flying together" books, Jan Meyer has an excellent DiveMaker program. I say excellent not from experience, but from having it highly recommended to me by the organizers of the Texas big-way record events. I'll probably pick up a copy when I get employed again.

daveb 1 #7 March 3, 2004 Small world! I had to pull my copy of that McGowen photo off the wall to compare! On closer inspection, your jpeg is the next dive after my photo; I recall the outfacing guy at 2-o'clock being replaced by the guy in your photo. (I'm the one in black towards the bottom right of the image, say 5-o'clock.) Those were some really fun skydives! I just pulled out my logbook to check; 12-30-2001, jump ~615-ish. My only note: "16-way w/ Craig Girard". Sigh: I remember the formation, but not much about the actual jump; I really need to keep better notes in my logbook. Back to your regularly scheduled discussion.... -- Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harryskydives 0 #8 March 3, 2004 Hey Dave I got my tickets and we are going to Eloy for easter. Did some kick ass 8-10way at the Xmas boogie. I am up for a repeat, you in?? I remember Doc Sherry is the person i have a grip on in Mikes picture. Back to the 20 way question. I tried to find the 20-way dive pool on the internet and did not. But it is probally in the back issues of parachust. It looks like rain this weekend maybe i will find the dive pool and post that. Don't run out of altitude and experience at the same time...

daveb 1 #9 March 3, 2004 Love to, but we are training that weekend in Dallas. We also trained a few days in Eloy just after Christmas, but I didn't hang around for New Year's, what with a long trip looming in Jan/Feb. I'd jump with you again in a heartbeat, given the chance. I'll bet the 8-10 ways rocked! The Eloy boogie is on my perpetual calendar; lotsa fun! -- Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
