  1. The only requirement is that you be 'B' license qualified. If you're a low time jumper or this is your first time at the WFFC, DEFINATELY head to tent 3 for at least a day. Bill, DJan, Mary, Windsor, etc. will make sure to introduce you to the convention the right way. My major personal rule is know when to say when and have a seat if the winds get squirrely or what not. Be safe where ever you end up. BTW Canuck, let me know if you're going and we'll save room for you in Kamp Kolorado. I'll be there about a week prior setting gear up this time around. Bluez~~~ Michael ----- ~~~Michael
  2. That's the fun in balloon jumps too. In Rantoul, I landed in someone's front yard. Oops...Downwinded it and stood it up. (It may have made the video so watch for it) The alternate landing area was either corn, beans or a cemetary. The cemetary had bad Karma going with it, so I picked the neighborhood.

    212 days!!!!

    Keep in mind that the WFFC has always started the first Friday in August, an established timeframe. Summerfest came along a couple years ago and overlapped the dates. I've heard good things and lame things from summerfest. I personally doubt I'll go check it out unless Roger wants to match what I pay for jump tix in Rantoul. Bluez~~~ Michael ----- ~~~Michael

  11. 60 minutes...but the drive to work is 4 minutes with no traffic...Since I was there 5 days a week, that outweighed the two days I'm at the DZ. ----- ~~~Michael
  12. You only have to jump with one brother and be able to spell the last name... Arano Rodriguez ----- ~~~Michael
  13. Any show of true appreciation to an employee at the end of the year is very nice. Even better when it's cash. Due to market conditions, didn't get a bonus or a raise last year. This year, I'm getting a raise, not enough to make up for last year though. Bonus wise, I ordered and paid for a new samuri today and there's enough left over to jump with too... ----- ~~~Michael
  14. How about 'In4It' ----- ~~~Michael

    Balloon jump

    Balloon jumps are the best...Learn to rappel and try that out of the balloon next time. Hanging there in near silence enjoying the early morning view. So, what happens when you reach the proverbial end of the rope? The fun continues of course... Bluez~~~ Michael ----- ~~~Michael
  18. The moderator moderate this private forum. There are rules to be followed and they are the judge, jury, executioner when it comes to messages that don't fit within the rules. Simply put, if they don't like your message for whatever reason, they will remove it or lock the thread. Their call. Wreck.Skydive is an unmoderated forum. i.e. no rules. post what you want there.
