  1. OUCH! you look like you have the same sort of luck I do! that sucks bother Im sorry that happend to ya! hope it didnt cut into your jumping!
  2. Hi, every1! Im new to the sport and have recently found the forums here on DZ.com.. I say that Im 8 months old cause I recently got another chance at life and not just cause of how long Ive been in sport! My 1st solo jump was exactly 1 month after I got attacked so it was kinda a big deal for me...I am posting this cause recently Ive been inundated with questions about this...and for those of you who havent heard click on the link below...I wasnt there for training! I was there for a job as dive master and boat capt. for an "eco tour" scuba shop! I thought it was a great way to move away from my psycho cheating ex! dont get me wrong Im no peach but I NEVER flipped out, called names, cheated or anything in that realm! I may be a cynical bastard but for the most part Im a happy go lucky kinda guy who likes to wakeboard snowboard skydive or do anything else fast enough for me to do something stupid! some people have a hard time understanding how I dont have to work to do all this... some think Im some sort of loser for not wanting to "better" myself!..but quite frankly I am "bettering" myself by skydiving! Im fortunate enough to be indepenantly wealthy which has allowed me to make over 340 jumps in less than 8 months! I want to be an AFF instructor and SDU/FF coach...if that many jumps isnt devotion/drive I dont know what is! not too metnion if you havent been violently attacked or assaulted then you have no frame of referance..it would prolly cost more to go see a shrink anyway! I am a very lucky guy and have a differnt out look on life! I want to do something with my life instead of merely existing like I was before skydiving! I think that I have finally found my place in life and that is in the air! Im sure most of you understand..however Im sure there are those of you who think Im some sort of A hole but it takes one to know one hahahaha! http://bvibeacon.com/main/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=709&Itemid=5

  5. Im sure all of you have had at least one of those moments...I know I have had several..so here are a few that made me laugh...
  6. there is a place here in Fort Worth TX that has rolls of all colors for $12-$16! they also have rolls of "thin" gaff so you dont have to tear it to get slim strip I would be more than happy to pick some up for any1 who wants any as long as they are willing to pay for the shipping!
  7. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU and again THANK YOU to all the people who were so kind and understanding! Even thou I only got to jump a few times (one of which was NAKED) I really had a GREAT time! It was well worth the drive to jump drink smoke and go to jail!I really cant thank those that helped enough! I dont think that there are that many people who would go out of their way to help some1 so much! So Chaps, Sarah, Dirtbag, Bill, John M., and any1 else that had a hand in helping me through my jail time...THANK YOU again and again! I also want to thank Bryan, Robert and all those that had a hand in putting on such a great party! I have been to a few boogies in my 7 months of skydiving and this one is definitely in the top 2...sorry but CouchFreaks was bad ass too! however I didnt feel comfortable with jumping naked @ couchfreaks... So thank you to all that DID NOT bitch about me jumpin naked... including Ben and the other wingsuit dude who had to suffer by seeing my "Bear" butt before exit! Ben I hope the leg is doing better and if you need anything dont hesitate to ask! And one last thing my friends were kind enough to gather my stuff considering that I went to jail..however an extra pair of Gators was picked up! so if any1 is missing a pair of Gators drop me an email describing them..including location of scratches (I didnt wear or scratch em, thats the way they were) for this is not a "give away"!!! I hope the owner of them sees this or knows who does own them cause I would hate to rob some1 of their Gators! anywho THANK YOU again for such a great boogie! I hope all that I met are doing well and enjoying the beginning of the hollidays! I wish all of you the best and hope all have warm weather and blue skies over the winter! if not go to Smithville and hopefully you wont go to jail like I did lol! Later Bear
