Check the dropzones tab at the top of the page. Skydive Playa is where I did my first jump as a tandem. Basically a cessna tandem factory. Beautiful location though. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

Not sure, but I think they have those just down the street at my local drug store. In high school, that was the brand we sold for our German Club fundraiser. Haribos are the best.

I'm camping out, and the gear will be there already. I'll just have my rig and suitcase. Return ride on Sunday is already set. Thanks for checking around for me. boy 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

Looks like my Plan A on how to get to the DZ from Portland airport is out the window. So Plan B: Are there any local jumpers passing by or anyone else arriving in Portland Friday around 2:45pm that might be able to offer a ride? I swear I will have freshly bathed, be on my best behavior(no farting in the car) and you can have my bag of airline peanuts. Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? This public service announcement has been brought to you by "Monkey needs a ride, pleeeeease!" And now back to our previously scheduled program. boy 50 donations so far. Give it a try.

Dave, if you weren't bigger, faster, stronger, taller and a better aim, I'd seriously suggest you lose your guy card for a short time for starting this thread.

Not sure about the UK, but I'd say about half your income for the rest of your life.

You are absolutely right!!!! Packing a reserve is nothing magic. I always tell to everybody that a monkey can pack a parachute. The only difference is that he, the monkey, doesn't know how to deal when something looks wrong on any components of this same parachute and as long you give him bananas, he will just keep packing to get more bananas!!!!! You willing to give me lessons? I prefer mangos to bananas. boy 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity

Chris, congrats on the landings with the lack of wind. I just downsized myself and I'm working to re-dial in my landing accuracy as well. One thing I was taught when getting my coach rating. It is not the responsibility of the student to match the fall rate of the coach, but the other way around. I was told to dress for success to match my student. Adding weight should be the last resort. I had an average to fast fall rate and had a hard time not sinking out on a floaty student. So now I have a suit with swoop cords and small wings. Gives me much more range to stay up with you floaty butts. If I still have a hard time, I'll find another coach who can. Good for you on questioning wearing extra weight. If you don't have one, a tighter slick suit might be a better way to go to get your fall rate up without increasing your wing loading. Just making more jumps will help as well. Eventually, wearing weight might be the right thing to do so you don't have to work so hard just to stay in a formation. But give yourself some time to keep making good safe landings with your canopy. Good luck and let us know when you get your "A". boy 50 donations so far. Give it a try.

Except for the fact that your car will have met it's demise from a Skyvan, I'd ask you what you have in the trunk besides a spare tire. If you can do a lay over, I'll try and take a day off.
