  1. I Jumped out of a DASH-8 after finding out "no in-flight Coffee" _______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/
  2. ...pull my finger, and I'll pull yours. We'll blame it all on the last guy that left _______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/
  3. I didn't know anyone wore goggles while trying for speed. My OYXGN A3 just arrived last week and I plan on taping the top of my face shield for noise/volume control. (still waiting for my ProTrack) How do you hear your Audible Alti with an open face helmet at "254"( on ANY occasions)?? _______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/

  5. Hell no! everybody can come too! At 250+mph I could probably use a "group hug" I have not done a "Speed-dive" yet(never gone over 201mph), and if you want to hold my hand while I do my 1st jump in my speed suit, I would feel better. LOve, Grant-Tastic! _______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/
  6. Excellent! I if you enjoyed the speed then, it's a START! I took interest to stronger thought after a 9-way averaged 201mph, from 4 different ProTracks on the jump. (we weren't "trying for speed" & that entertained greater thoughts
  7. I just mixed the drink. At least i'm not the dumbass that actually drank it!! Actually "WE" in the U.S. think of it, "Jaegermeister" has a GREAT BOOZE!
  8. Quotei'm not sure ... it could be fun, but it'll be harder to organize, why wouldn't you start a topic on speed skydiving forum on this subject ? let see what people think ... A "Speed SKydiving" forum here? That would be great! ....I think a request to Head Hancho= Sangrio would be required. i saw the magazine :) the article is not mine :) dude on my right, Ken Hansen, wrote it. He wrote it but, it's about you. Ken seems nice= always smiling
  9. What do you think about getting a speed meet at WFFC 2004? Right before The proposed time(1-2 weeks) of the possible meet at your DZ. www.freefall.com "message board" -Grant p.s. Did you see your article in SKYDIVING yet? Nice pic with you guys and your Gold medal (damn! are you tall or are they short?) _______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/
  10. That's perfect! All folks I have met from SOUTH-Africa are White. Caucasian doesn't mean white either. It's derived from a Mountain region in Russia. Ethnic means Eastern European Not all *people are from AFRICA too. I have relations from the "way back machine"/Pirate & Royal Navy Days that are from Jamaica for generations and can be concidered Scottish & *"Noir". -Grant _______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/
  11. Honestly, "Irresponsible" is what your EX is when using skydiving as a stab at you while USING your child as the blade. I admit that my Oldest daughter making her 1st jump in spring, makes me a bit tense (and 2nd dauther is MORE hyped to go on top of it). My ex jumped once and knows that if our girls get their A-lic, they will have "new" full gear with ALL know safety equip. on them, by the they are taking their B-lic tests. -Grant G. p.s. all Skydivers endanger themselves driving cars, far more than jumping on any givien day. _______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/
  12. from Bobsled & Skeleton days, I still have a suite "CCCP" from a Latvian Luge Coach who stayed down the Hall from me in the Lake Placid OTC.($40) I plan on using that and my new A3/Oxygen helmet. Waiting on ProTract and new Vector3 I remember your statment of top speed from before and wondered if you were involved. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/ -Grant G. p.s. there is a nice little airpark at the "Horeshow grounds" right next to our dry-land sled-push track. _______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/
  13. I have been looking around after I saw a page in Parachutist of a man that did 340m.p.h. I'm captivated by it like "FreeDiving" being Zen like.

  15. that's OK, I had gas so bad, I had to go to the Chiropractor just to get my FINGER PULLED! (yes,....a "fart joke") _______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/
  16. It's going to be alright......the satalite didn't fall ON anyone, right? Other things just fell down too. We are going to be working on our lines for awhile, thanks to the STORM that cut through. that effects more people directly and will be much more $$$ (and present NOAA equipment worked just fine with very good info on the storm) We are greatful to be safe.

  19. He should have held on to a CHICK THAT JUMPS! but, honestly, the guy in the story had his methods that made sense.

  20. Fair game! It was left unguarded & defenseless. THe moment finally arrived. You saw the opportunity and took "THE SHOT", and completed the task. It was for the betterment of the Country, any red-blooded American would have done the same. Well executed. _______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/
  21. Thats actually alot harder that it sounds, trust me. ..."In a Big Country"......... In Texas and Wyoming, dating you neighbor can be considered "long distance relationship" In Amish Country dating is considered: "Now go uup staars wit Sara and Rebbeca now". Love, -Grant (yep............"still crazy after all of these years!")

  23. looking for a big change in life but in a familiar way. the big FEAR is still real but, you feel it is "do-able" you must have seen others make it happen for them and maybe one person (1 out of many)failed???
