  1. Hope that you had a fabulous weekend 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!
  2. As far as I know, there will be a red nightie evening. I am not someone who is usually involved with scheduling events - that is more shell's arena - last year there were only a few of us who participated.....but we all still had a good time and got some interesting looks 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!
  3. If you get something organized I'll join you on that load. Not sure about the landing either.....but it would be an interesting jump. I bet we could get the stepchild to join us....doc and livendive can video Hell, I'll even cover my own slot. I'm such a giver. Blues, Dave For some reason Dave, I just knew I could count on you 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!
  4. mmmm....the possibility of playing with Danger in the sky is well worth the price of admission 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!
  5. Have you seen me at 0830 in the morning??? it could be dangerous for everyone on that plane - although I have been better this year about getting up early and being a not so heinous bitch in the morning 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!

  11. So I am sitting here watching the 38th video and getting ready to watch the 40th video as well......I have come to the conclusion that I will have to crash a madjohn jump this season and am seriously thinking about wearing some lingerie on a jump if I can figure out how to land well, we all know that may not happen, but I am sure that there will be some trouble out there that will find me and i am sure that "the stepchild", doc, and livendive will find some trouble for me to get into. MJ....dinner is on us one night. Let us know when you are available and I am sure that we will find some way to entertain you. WOOOOHOOOOO! we are less than 60days away kids - time to rock this joint!!!!! ETA: Its too hot, the skydiving sucks, the beer is warm and there is too many damn canadians!!!!

  12. Oh, my. I knew I was a little high when I flared, but 30 feet too high. Wow! I guess there was a little extra adrenaline in my system. I will say, it was sure a surprise when I opened at around 4000 feet to a canopy that thought I wanted a carnival ride. It was starting to spin when I opened. The toggles appeared to be where they belonged, so I grabbed them and flared. I was still spinning and it was picking up speed nicely, so I tried a second time. Twice was enough, like I was taught. I did discover it's a little harder to pull the cutaway handle when you are spinning and your weight is against it, but it does work. I was pulling the reserve as the same time I felt the RSL help out. Boy, was that pretty blue canopy a nice sight. It opened fine and flew so nicely. I was in the saddle under the reserve at about 2000 feet, so I had time to get to and set up a landing pattern. In spite of flaring high, the landing was ok. I know better than to let up on the toggles. I knew I still had my reserve handle when I landed, but the cutaway handle had attached itself to one of the risers, and I had it too. The freebag landed about 6 feet from the main, so I got everything back (thanks SDU staff). It's all going to my rigger this afternoon and I'll see just what I did to pack myself a mal so I don't repeat that experience. Once is quite adequate. I had a great time this weekend at Skydive Utah, and can't wait to come again. I still have a jump ticket waiting to be used. Your one up on me now Pat Glad that things went well - I want to hear about your week 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!
