Perris is so close you should go over there as well. Especially if you want to do some tunnel time. Both are great Dz's although Elsinore is my favorite. Sorry we won't be down there at that time.....but have a blast.

We went down to SanDiego last year when they had their wildfires. It was crazy.....we would drive through towns and no one would be there as they were evacuated --very creepy.

I wouldn't say "no incidents" ... I would just say none posted. One of our Tandem guys had a nasty ass cut away ---- see the weekend #s post ---- he ended up with rope burns around his neck. I don't think I have ever seen him with the "i am totally fucked" look before this weekend. I have a huge respect for these guys but it seems this summer our 2 most experienced tandem guys came down with the same look which left me saying "thank you god...for taking great care of my boys and bringing them home safe."

Krisanne....this is one of the reasons I love you to pieces!!! Are you and Sean going to be down for the wingsuit weekend at elsinore in november...good time to come down and "pick up" franklin so I don't bring him home ----doc would so kick my ass.....but it gives me an excuse to see you guys too! keep me posted on your plans. eta: i thought that was weird you were adopting 2 franklins until I saw the dates...... what can I say.... I am a slacker. Regardless, I know that he has loved being with you and that you wouldn't think of the world without him. How is he adjusting to cali????

geez kris your killing me!!!! If you still have him when we get down there we may be able to convince doc in a moment of drunken stupor ---- he is kind of a sucker for abandoned animals.....already have 2 rescues (one from mexico ... one from spokane).

PLFs are your friend. Learn them well...even after 250 jumps I did an improper plf and was out for 3 months of the season. I am way ahead of schedule for my injury by the way. Every time we had New jump course students I went and talked to them.... and remember, sagebrush is not your friend! good luck in the future, take your time and don't rush things too much....glad it was only a sprain and not a break.

Squirt gun!!! i have one of those...maybe i should go fill it and hose him down although it is a whopping 40 degrees here so I think I will behave as I don't want to sleep outside and make things worse.

doc opted to go out of the country...as you know...what happens out of the country stays out of the country. I myself have not had a milestone birthday since doc and I have been together so I couldn't tell ya...but in all honesty, spain and italy are looking really nice DPH # 2 "I am not sure what you are suppose to do with that, but I don't think it is suppose to flop around like that." ~Skootz~ I have a strong regard for the rules.......doc!

Body position was not a factor. I broke 3 lines just below the cascades and the slack ends dropped onto me (felt like a slider hitting the top of my head). Canopy was behaving erratically enough that I didn't realize the broken lines were on me loosely until I chopped and the "loosely" status changed to "tightly" on their way past my neck. Between the way the main was mal-ing and the drag of the lines on me, the reserve opened with at least a dozen twists in it. The stall/surge nature of a tandem reserve with brakes stowed increased the twists to nearly the stabilizers. A stalling/surging/spinning reserve is a motherfucker to fight...every kick a quarter turn in the right direction earned me a full turn in the wrong direction on the stall/surge. I threw everything I had at it for a couple thousand feet, paused to catch my breath and try to think of any other technique I'd ever heard of, realized my bag of tricks was empty and this was likely going to end badly, and then figured I might as well keep working it into the ground. A few seconds later I finally made my first positive progress and then went shit-house crazy building on it. Ended up with a nice stand-up in the landing area, which was much better than the arrival I was beginning to believe was inevitable. And thanks...I'm kinda glad I'm not dead too. Blues, Dave That was some crazy shit.....heard there was a lot more crazy shit that went on after we left the dz. I think home on saturday was a good place for us to be.

I am quite biased but I love elsinore...was there three times last year and will be there at least twice this year ---- nice thing is you are very close to perris so you can hit the wind tunnel or the dz as well. When we went down last year we actually went to jump in sandiego but they were having fires so went up to perris --- winds were 30-40 ....went to elsinore and they were putting loads up; so that is where we stayed. Loved it so much we keep going back --- DPH # 2 "I am not sure what you are suppose to do with that, but I don't think it is suppose to flop around like that." ~Skootz~ I have a strong regard for the rules.......doc!
