  1. I actually called there about a month ago!! I left a message & one of their managers, aguy named Collin actually called me back the next day. He didn't give any reasons why, but he said it won't be up & running until late fall of this year. So, I am sure it is probably safe to say that it won't be open until 2005????
  2. I actually called there about a month ago!! I left a message & one of their managers actually called me back the next day. He didn't give any reasons why (& I didn't ask) but he said it won't be done until late fall of this year Kinda sucks (well really sucks) I'm not brave enough to jump when it's this cold & was hoping to build my freefall skills this winter! I can't go where it's warm & jump, because I do not yet have my A license So let's hope that furry little groundhog was wrong & warmer weather is on it's way ........ although it doesn't look promising!
  3. Hey, Happy Bithday!! It's my mom's Birthday too!! Have fun jumping your birthday away!!
  4. Wow, you need a special license to drive an ambulance in California??? I've been an EMT here in New Jersey for 8 years, and been a Paramedic now for almost a year! I've been driving ambulances for almost 9 years & never needed anything other than my New Jersey drivers license
  5. Sorry to hear that!! My boss is REALLY kewl, and if I want to take off to go skydiving, it's not a problem for him, as long as I find my own coverage, or switch with another full time employee!! My boss definitely ROCKS
  6. I'm not a firefighter, but I am a paramedic ........... here in the COLD, COLD, COLD state of New Jersey
  7. I wish that the guys that have cheated on me were at least honest about it!! Would have saved a lot of hard feelings towards them!! Or at least I would've expected it, not that it would've been any easier
  8. I saw it in Hartford, Connecticut, and absolutely loved it!!
  9. I have one that I've watched twice. It's not impressive at all!! If you want it you can have mine! Just PM me!!
  10. I actually just got a Z1 EVO!! Haven't had a chance to fly with it yet, but I love the style, and the fit!!
  11. I meant to put the Neptune, and not the Digitude I want something that will log my data as well!!
  12. I am currently in the market for my first audible altimeter, and was just wondering which one you prefer, as I am not sure yet which one is the best, and I am having a hard time deciding on which one to purchase Thanks for your help
  13. I've had the same problem Try accuweather.com, and enter the zip code of your dz. It's actually what the pilots at my dz use to check the weather, it will give you cloud ceiling height and all, and it's pretty accurate.
  14. I bought my first set of gear used, in pieces here on dropzone.com in the classifieds. You should take a look. Never know what your gonna find
  15. All I know, is I thought it would be a one time thing just to experience it. Directly after my first tandem I went up for my second, and the weekend after I went back for my third and ground school!!!
  16. That's fantastic!!! Best of luck, and enjoy! I don't thinkyou're crazy
  17. Go back to the sunpath website, and click on sizing on the left hand side of the main page. It will give you the different models, and what size canopy (main and reserve) will fit into each model. Don't forget to check what size harness you will need. I believe you will need a C-17 harness. Good luck!!
  18. I have onlt gotten nauseous twice. Both times were after my first two solo jumps right off of student status, I think it was just from the fear of not having an instuctor with me, I haven't had any problems since then. I am sure in time you will be just fine!!
  19. Always go by dropzone policy. 1000' in the otter and the caravan, 2000' in the skyvan
  20. I actually just purchased a used Odyssey off of the classified section here at dropzone.com. The harness and container was everything that she said it would be, an I absolutely love it. Just to let you know that eveyone is not shady, but I will keep that in mind while I am looking for the canopies to put inside of it. Thanks for the heads up!!
  21. Congrats on the new rig, and welcome!!
