    Sorry to hear about this. My prayers go out to the friends and family. I have one thing to say then I am backing out of the room slowly. I am a swooper and have been jumping for over 10years. I always do a 270 and have never had a close call to anyone ever under canopy. With close to 4000 jumps. I started swooping with 500 jumps. They can be done safely. But you have to know when to do and when not to. For dropzones that have 180 turn limit to me is just stupid. The 180 has more blind spots than a 270 does. If your restricting the turns they should be 90 only.

    I agree I wont just go freefly with anyone. And I wont do zoo loads with low experience jumpers. But when you show up at a dz that you have been jumping at for years and you have over 2000 freefly jumps and still get the skygod vibe from the local free fly guys is just bs. This is one of the reasons I stoped jumping in deland years ago. I have been to css more than deland over the years and deland is 30 minutes from my house. I felt more at home up there with total strangers than any dz I have been to in florida. And I have been to all of them. I here things are differnet in dleand now. But I am just starting to jump alot again so deland may be my new home dz.

    Its helps when your at a dz that has good freeflyers that will actually jump with you. I live in fl but have had some of my best ever freefly jumps at css. I never got the skygod vibe from anyone up there. Hell I almosted moved there just because of the great jumps.

    I dont think you guys will be jumping today. But if you do who ever does a down winder will have the new distance record if they make it. lol
  8. TAXIWAY
    No but deland is not far. You can find one there.

    I remember doing some freefly jump with Jeff Mullins when he was 13. He was a great skydiver at 13 I can only image how good he is now. Try west tenn skydiving. You might could get him on a tandem.

    Eddie, Just to clarify, you were supplied with oxygen on the aircraft. You did not use oxygen in freefall (which you found was not a wise choice). Yes, this is the highest I know of a Tandem without freefall oxygen and before everyone goes ballistic over endangering a tandem student, the passenger was an experienced jumper. Mike Mike I am having flash backs to wisconson several years ago. 10,000 feet of pure hypoxia. I definately dont recomend 28000 without proper bailout. Its not to bad without it unless the person your suposed to video takes 30 seconds to get out of the plane. (Thanks Scary Perry)lol Nothing like the piliot telling you your all going to die, lol For the record I had a cypress put in just for this jump.

    And where the hell were you?? You missed a good time on Friday night. Although the jumping didn't start on Sunday due to weather, it was still a good weekend. They are out there jumping today while I sit here and pretend to work.....Oh look, its lunch time!! It was too cold for me.lol and windy. I will be out this weekend unless it get cold again. But glad you missed me.
  12. TAXIWAY
    Damn we are supposed to do it more than once a year. My pencil is very sharp.lol
  13. TAXIWAY
    I may still come but if its cold I wont be jumping. I will be there to make sure the drunks dont get to mean. I will pass on the Jack drank to much of the stuff when I was younger and cant drink it any more. lol Lets just break out the tequila it makes even the most mellow people mean. None for Al.
  14. TAXIWAY
    Clothes are over rated. The crown will keep you warm.
  15. TAXIWAY
    Well dont remember that one.(damn crown) You should kick Al in the nuts when you see him or did you tackle me.(just day dreaming out loun again lol) That bottle is gone and crown at the drop zone is very bad.
  16. TAXIWAY

  17. TAXIWAY

  18. TAXIWAY

  25. TAXIWAY
    But we're good girls! Me and skymama will just be over in the corner, behaving ourselves, at this boogie. Even good girls can be swayed to do bad things. You just need the right tools and personality for the job.
