There are some jokes you just don't play no matter how funny it may be. I do like it though Can't we all just get along

First off I would like to say it's good being back in the forums. Like anybody has missed me over the last two months. God speed for the injured jumper and may they jump again. I'm still a newbie to the sport, but I have great respect for what could possibly happen each and every time I leave that plane. It has been said before and I will say it again how many people have to get hurt before someone will step forward and do something about this problem. I haven't had the opertunity to travel to any world class dropzones like Perris, but I am planning to next summer. Dont these DZ have rules as to what a jumper can and cannot do below a designated altitude. Both DZ's that I jump at here in Washington State say that there are to be no 360 degree turns under 1,000 feet and absolutley NO HOOK TURNS. Sure visiting jumpers don't like the rules but it's for SAFETY!!!!! I believe more DZ's should start setting more stricter rules as to what jumpers can and cannot do. If you really want to swoop then do it over a pond where if something does go wrong the water is a lot softer than the dirt. Another thing pointed out is talking to newbies who want to down size because it's cool. Listen to the more experienced jumpers they know what they're talking about. This cones from experience. I came to my home DZ as a smug PARATROOPER fresh off active duty. I thought I jump rounds for the fun of it. I got a rude awaikining when I could have cost the lives of myself and two fellow jumpers because of it. safety is number 1 for me know. I have just purchased my first rig and every body askes why I didn't get something smaller and I tell them I done feel safe enough yet to down size. Look out for each other and keep each other safe. We jump to have fun not to kill or cripple ourselves. Can't we all just get along

Goober Girdletush I like the sound of that. I sounds better than Scott Petersen dont you think

I used to be a paratrooper in the 82nd and I've seen my share of injuries. It was my first day at the local DZ and I was going to do a tandem. The load before mine they had an accident. A dumb ass jumper decided to do a 180 on approach and ran his feet through the top cells of a lower jumpers canopy. Thank god he hadn't been two feet lower or the lower jumpers canopy would have blown in two. Instead the atatchmant for the pilot chute saved it from ripping in two. The lower jumper burned in from around 150ft in a spin. He lived hand was seriously fucked up with many broken bones and internal problems. What a great first impression of the sport. After that I never did get to do that tandem. So I signed up for the next weeks static line class instead. Six months later I'm still jumping and last weekend I got the honer of jumping with that lower jumper. It was his third jump since his accident. it's good to have you back Rick

Nice cartoon and congrats o you 12 hours of free fall

I haven't lost anything YET, but I did have my watch band break so the watch kept bouncing round in the arm of my jump suit. Bite Me

My home is where I hang my jumpsuit. At the moment it's hanging at DZ.com. It will probably hang there till the weekend when I'm at my other DZ. Vista Skydiving inc. is where you can find me on the weekends, where there is always room for one more jumper. Bite Me
