    shhh!! come on, man... I don't want to be all sticky n stuff. I gotta make jumps ya know. Besides, there's always my 500th jump, that should probably happen in '05. :) Angela.

    just so you know, I somehow clicked the wrong answer on the poll, too, the yes/no thing confused me... oops

    Well, I of course can't be listened to because I have a meager 100 jumps... but, no one has ever cut in front of me to check the spot. I think if I had more experience and could spot well, this would piss me off, too, and therefore said person seems to be generally in the wrong here. However, I can't spot for shit, so if I were doing a solo, and it were questionable, i'd probably ask someone else to check the spot. I do most of my jumps 2-way with my bf, though, and he spots so i'm not worried about it:) jmo. angela

    I agree, Bubbles. I can barely drive in the back of a car, and get sick just looking at a roller coaster. Yet I have no problems skydiving. angela.

    It would be very difficult for me to not pop someone in the mouth if they did this to me. I'm getting my 40$ worth, i'll tell ya that much Angela.

    Well, I jump at a small dz... plus, I think after I make another jump, i'm in the clear. So, i'll tell everyone at the dz that I did my 100th,... after I do my 101 on Saturday. Yep, that's the plan:) Angela.

    We were sweating yesterday in Fla. don't know how the west coast is, but here in SE Fla, it is freakin' warm! Angela.

    That's cool:) Hey, maybe i'll get really good by then (ha!). How does that work anyhow? Do you do two ways? Do they send someone with you to film, or are you supposed to have a camera? How is it judged? Angela.

    Did a 2-way with my bf, fun exit and a great jump! I had lots of fun! Since no one from here was out, I didn't tell anyone I was making my 100th, thereby avoided pie 200th jump coming soon, stay tuned! Hope to see you out soon, say hi to me if you show up. I'll be out this wknd.
  11. SkydiveNFlorida
    hah! Sounds like that was one to be remembered! I miss zhillz! Angela.
  12. SkydiveNFlorida
    That's great! We'll see you there, then! :) Angela.

    Ouch, AFF..... If I had to do That I don't Know if I ever could have become a jumper. I got my Licence on the Dope Rope for less that $400 whas dat? Static line? When was it that you could get licensed for 400$? I bet I could get a few more people into the community at those rates, lol! :D Angela.

    I believe that the point Jim was trying to get across is that "everything possible" could still fail to be enough. Goose said with such confidence that he was sure they'd pull for him, and undoubtably, they would indeed make their greatest effort i'm sure... but it IS possible that they aren't able to. Anything is possible, it's a big sky. Angela.

    There are some who jump w/o helmets. I guess I just wouldn't be one. Especially with my lack of a cypres. Why don't you just ask at your dz what the requirements are. It's your life, if you want to jump w/o a helmet and they will let you, then it is your call to do so... Angela.
  16. SkydiveNFlorida
    That's cool. Too bad you can't come, but it is always a good time to visit Florida you know!! I think the PMS are going to be in New Orleans end of February for the Mardi Gras boogie. Maybe you could go back again. I won't make it this year, maybe next:) have fun & eat lots!! New Orleans is a great city! Angela.

    My take on helmets: 1) dytter holder 2) some protection if you hit your head on the plane 3) possibly some mid-air collision protection if someone kicks you in the head. Just curious as to why you feel that a helmet is so useless.? Of course if you don't pull and slam into the ground at 160, well, it isn't going to do you much good... but they are functional in ways. Angela.

    Well, i'll be making my 100th tomorrow. No actual plan as to what i'll do, but no matter what, I always have fun so it won't matter Anyhow, i'll be in Pahokee if anyone wants to come out and join in the fun

    Thanks, Push! Kristi, I am going through the thread again now. . . but there are so many pix that aren't of jumpsuits. Thanks for the link, tho, I will definitely be looking through it. All pix are appreciated, please post!

    I need inspiriation. I am headed to Deland this weekend to be measured for a freefly suit from Ouragan suits. I am probably going with a 2 piece. Anyhow, I need some inspiration. I am trying to draw designs, but i'm just not all that artistic and could use a little help! Just looking to get an idea of what I want, I have already decided on colors (purple, metallic silver, black). PLEASE POST PIX!

    I don't have back problems, but I have gotten backaches jumping Sabres, and from arching. Thankfully, you can get other canopies and take up freeflying Skybytch flies a Spectre, the openings on those are nice ime. Angela.

    For one, I do not! I definitely believe that even the poor should be educated. There are enough rich people in this country... take more taxes from the for education if $$ is lacking. jmo. Oh, and what about lottery funds? I know that the Fla lottery is supposed to have funds alloted to education, though i'm unsure of a % or fixed sum and where exactly that $$ goes (I suspect only Florida?). Angela.
  23. SkydiveNFlorida
    Wow, that is moving! You are awesome! Yeah, it is definitely unfair that you should have to pay for those things. A shame Hope you have a Happy New Year! Angela.
  24. SkydiveNFlorida
    Yeah, chick! Get out, go to Hirams and get sloshed. That's what i'd do if I lived in Seb... that or i'd drive to Orlando. Angela
  25. SkydiveNFlorida
    Oh, man, that sux! I know you want to jump your cypres, but if the rig has 4 mistakes, ... maybe worth sending back. Just my 2cents. Good luck, ' Angela.
