  11. Well it all started in late January early February in 1967 with my parents. The weather must have been bad during those months in Texas so they weren't jumping much...well thats not exactly true Come Oct 1 that year I was born, mom had made about 20 jumps from Feb to Oct so I guess I was never really given a choice.
  12. Just sent him another email for more details. Will let you know soon. Did anyone see the list of manufacturers going to SkyFest thread...didnt last long. some day I will figure out when and where to post have a great day
  13. Anyone know who owns this bomber and their contact info? Always looking for more AC to add to our flightline.
  14. I would also suggest Dacron Lines on the canopy, not only do they stretch, but the thicker lines will slow the slider down as well. The only disadvantage that I have found is that they add more bulk to the pack job, but that is not important to me. Especially since I dont pack..
  15. Drop Voodew1 a PM. He is doing wingsuits and has some good stuff going on. Scott is still pending and so is a BM rep.
  16. West Tennessee Skydiving. Give them a call. I know its not KC but it just depends on how bad you want to do it I guess. Give them a call and see what they say have fun
  17. I haven't got a pay check yet mofo. No need my friend, I am just wanting the good food from the cook...
  18. Thank you Jay and Jamie as well for helping a brother out when he was down. You are 2 of the nicest people I have ever met. Dom its easy to help out when its with the right people like yourself.. That is great news!!! Maybe you can teach us a few things about fund raising for SkyFest so we can give more to skydivers. Ok we are still wanting steak and lobster when we get home next week.
  19. I know that neighborhood and you are the only one new to the area... Seriously though...not sure if it is still there but up the main raod about 1/2 mile the corner house has a huge banner with his face on it stating the offense. Suprised they never had any problems, but its perfectly legal. see ya next week
  20. And J - I just might see you in TX ;) Quote Yooo hoo!! Of course that is if it doesnt ruin your other plans. If I remember right it was a decent trip you had planned?? Kolla in the dunk tank...Kolla in the dunk tank... shhhh... I know nothing....... Hope you can make it, it should be a good one.. J
  21. From what I understand they will start taking orders today. I also believe they took a while with those sizes because they wanted them to fly like the smaller ones. The larger sizes are probably for the larger jumpers who want the Katana's flight characteristics. Or a different loading. They will have them available to demo at certain events this year. I know they will be at SkyFest July 12-17 at SD Spaceland Maybe a PD rep will reply here as well. Hope that helps
  22. Once again W. Tenn skydiving was a great time. We would like to thank everyone for showing us a fantastic time!! Mike, I dont know where you get all those jokes from but dont ever stop
  23. I have talked to Bill about that, he hasnt done one in a while... SO we are trying to get Curley Roe to join us. He invented the ceremony. Which I believe would be the first time they are together. Bill will be handing out patches on the spot like the old days so no waiting for your patch!!! This is a once in a life time event, celebrating 40 years of SCR's with the "founders" present....what a history making event!! Can you tell I am excited!!!!
