Here is a pic of miss mad hatter, and you can also see miss white rabbit in the back ground. Yummy!

I was present when you were the white rabbit, and I will say that you MORE than qualify as a hot dz.commer chick!! So, you are going to top that costume this year right?

I find that REALLY hard to believe.

What up fast healer! Welcome back babe!!!

Congrats sweetie! Tell Sarah she is the hottest freefly tube I have ever seen!

Sure is. And Ovid even has a McDonald's now too!

Fingerlakes Skydivers is located in Ovid. It is my home DZ. Batavia is about an hour and 20 minutes north and west of there.

Sweet pics, Jimmy! Thanks for posting! How are you feeling? All ok with the shoulder? Yes, Amy is a real sweetheart and someone who inspires for sure. She wanted to take you home too!

Just more comfortable. If I wear those shorts under my rig they bunch up and such.

Here are a couple shots from a hybrid we did with Amy Chmelecki this past weekend. Photos by Dale Harris.

Here's one that didn't make the original gallery, but I thought was funny. Is it Amy? Or is it Kenny?

Shutterfly would be sweet. Great way to display and distribute.

Yup. The proof is in the picture! I was in the zone.

Here is one of me from this past weekend. Compliments of Matt Ersing.

Yup, she was looking forward to coming to SkyFest this weekend, so I am sure you will have some fun! And SkyFest IS on my tentative list for next year!

Nice photos! That is probably the best swoop shot I have got of myself. Thanks for posting them!

Had a blast this past weekend at the Batavia Boogie. Few weather holds and plane issues, but overall it was great and we had some serious fun! Amy Chmelecki came out to organize and do coaching and we all did some sweet jumps and partied hard! Thank you to the Frontier crew and all who came out! And thank you Amy!!! I had tons of fun! Pictures HERE Enjoy!

None other than Ian Drennan. Nice shots.

See ya Friday morning, bright and early!

They rock out with YOUR cock out. Ride in the car with Girlfalldown, crank some Beasties, and you will see.

I will do my best to make it happen at the Batavia Boogie.

I figured as much! Plus, I figured if there was a "go to" person during a zombie attack, it was her!

I am just standing behind you if we are attacked!

My heart goes out to you and all the Xkeys family and loved ones of Sara and Ron. Fly free.

Like the dock I have in the attached pic? Flying head up and using your arms for docks is a skill that is hard to develop and takes quite a bit of practice. The problem is that most people rely on their arms for stability and fallrate control more than they think. You need to develop a strong lower body position for flying, stability and fallrate control. A couple things you can do to practice this on two ways: Go out and face off. Then play money see, monkey do. By this I mean, one of you do something with your arms, the other mirrors it. For instance, you can place one hand on your head, or a hand on your hip, or even both hands on your hips or head. All the while you are holding these positions, you need to stay facing each other and on level. Go out and practice taking hand to hand docks. By this I mean to face off and extend your hand out directly in front and take the docks as if you are shaking hands. Do one hand, then the other, and eventually taking both hands and flying that dock. These drills will teach you to fly with your lower body and free up your arms and hands. Get nice and wide with your stance and be solid. Think more in terms of head up flying and less in "sit." Be strong with your feet and legs and fly that lower body. Good luck.
