The weekend of the 4th and 5th is the one I'm shooting for! I just hope I get back in enough time to make it there on Friday the 3rd. I'll keep an eye out for you. Too bad I don't know for sure.....I'd like to take the canopy control course too..... It'd be neat to meet a few people from dz.com while I'm there!!

24 before my 1 and only (knock on wood) Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

I've got a FT-50 I think it is. I love it....use a protrac also. I bought a new galaxy and didn't like it....so I gave it to the wife . Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

Hey Gus, I'm doing all right....counting down the days. I should be home in a week (I leave here Saturday). She's been telling me about it everyday........I'm very proud of her. Thanks for taking her under your wing! She really enjoys rigging. Thanks again, and see you soon. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

Skydive Carolina in Chester, SC is the closest to Concord and Charlotte. I live in Charlotte and it takes about 30 minutes or so to get there. I-77 South to Chester....you can get the directions off of www.skydivecarolina.com They usually have a Otter....but lately its been a King Air. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

.....Who posted this crazy thread....someone must have stolen my screen name! ..... Yeah, I have never been so totally disgusted with my teams play as I was yesterday. That was truly the worst game I've watched them play since Coach Fox took over. Props to Seattle. Hopefully they'll go on to win the Super Bowl and represent the NFC!! As much as I hate to say that now ! Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

Thanks very much. Thats what I was hoping! Hopefully I can make it down on for 4 days (fri-mon). But if not...sounds like it shouldn't be much of an issue.

Hey, I want to hear how the weather usually is usually at this time of year. I am coming home for 2 weeks around the 1st of Feb, and I'd like to head down to Deland and make as many jumps as possible. How are the Temps in Feb? Rain, wind?? I'd check the weather....but somehow thats filtered out on our computers here (and DZ.coms not ). Also....during the week.....usually lots of loads? Or does it slow down CONSIDERABLY during the week? I would like to make it down for a weekend...but that may not be possible. Any feedback would be GREATLY appreciated! Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

463820....I have nothing better to do . Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

No....my lame ass excuse is being stuck in the sandbox! I will be jumping in about 2 weeks or so though. So I wont be a non jumper for much longer! Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

I can't believe no one else said Friends. Maybe I'm just a dork...... My Favorites: The West Wing Friends House I hardly ever watch T.V. about the only time I do is for those three shows. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

***Brian focuses on teach people how to fly a canopy well, which is a very different thing than "learning to swoop". This is a key difference, and a good path to follow. People who prematurely decide to swoop only get themselves into trouble, with predictable results. If instead somebody intends to learn to to be an great canopy pilot, then the step to swooping is relatively easy. Brians book is an excellent resource for somebody looking to be a great canopy pilot. *** Thanks for that.....you made me think about something I've been overlooking. It shouldn't be about learning to "swoop". It SHOULD be about being a good canopy pilot. If you are a good one....and have built up your experience level.....then swooping isn't such a big "jump". You will already have the basic skills, if you have taken the time to learn how to fly your canopy. Just some thoughts I was having....I get bored easily. BTW, I bought Brians book....it arrived yesterday. I've already started reading it....and at this rate should be finished reading it within a day or so. Thanks all. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

I'll echo the Carlolina 27 Broncos 17 I think that lots of people don't give near enough credit to the Panthers. Gonna be some suprises in the next two games! Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

Ernie Long and Mandy Schaeffer. Don't know how well known they are outside of Texas....but they are who my wife and I look up to in skydiving. They are the head instructors at Skydive Dallas.....great all around people. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

I went and posted my comments. I'm not a BASE jumper. But am very much looking to make my 1st BASE jump. Just gotta get out of the land of sand and figure out just what I have to do. Hopefully this will work in favor of you guys sport. Good luck! Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

Yeah, they don't KNOW about Goings. I wasn't going to spoil the surprise....but oh well. But even if Alexanders back....not worried about that. Carolinas got the #3 defense in the league. We got 'em covered there. And all this smack talking about Delhomme....must have forgot he's 5 for 6 in the playoffs. I think we're gonna surprise you guys out there...maybe you should stick with your coffee and leave the football to us good 'ol boys ! Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

What about 'em? Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

Carolina style???!!!! Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

I said it once....I'll say it again.....watch out for Carolina! Two down one to go. Here we come Seattle watch T F**K out!! Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

Run 3 or so miles M-F.....about 50 push ups and sit ups or crunches after the running. God I hate running that much . Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

I think you got the first parts right. But I think the Panthers and the Colts will be in the SB. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

Ft. Sill, Oklahoma to Kuwait City, Kuwait.........I wasn't timing it...probably something close to 20 hrs I'd guess. No fun. Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

Die hard Panthers fan....since there inception! Watch out Chicago....! Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft.

Yeah, I like my old sabre. Its been a good canopy! Not too much of a problem with hard openings....brisk, but not crazy. I love higher hop n pops....I'll like them even more when I get a more comfortable harness! Looks like I'll have lots to work on when I get back. I'd got to the point where I could do all the checks on my old canopy...but 4 months of no jumping then another 7 or so probably isn't going to help my situation. Thanks for the advice and insight.
