  2. Ketia0, I'm only a reader in this matter and not involved, but google "Mark Schlatter Skydiving" (demo jumper website, etc) then do a Search on dropzone.com for nickname "Slyde" (the main one being this thread). It gives some background information... Personally nothing of interest to most of us skydivers like you and me who just want to continue to enjoy jumping, but my posting gives contextual information to any outside jumpers who's never heard. I read his post before, but they never made too much sense. All i can really tell is he has a grudge against the USPA and the GK. I dont know his past, so I cant pass judgement... But I enjoy the USPA.. Havent seen anything wrong with it... but then again.. im REALLY new.. and like you.. Just here to have fun and jump!! "In this game you can't predict the future.

  5. That might be it, mixed with anxiety.. This was the first time i jumped from altitude with just sunglasses. I usually wear sealed off goggles... I hope thats all it was. But it could have been a number of things.. I dont think i was stressed. but hey. who knows.. Ill be jumping tomorrow afternoon to see if it happens again.. "In this game you can't predict the future. You just have to play the odds. "-JohnMitchell
  6. ? It happened to me today, and i cant explain it. It was my 6th jump of the day. 3 hop and pops, and this was my 3rd jump at alititude. Anywho. When I jumped out at 14,000 I lost my breath. I focused the whole skydive on trying to breath. I couldnt get oxygen from my mouth or my nose. Once I was down to about 5,000 feet, I dumped, and was able to breath again... On the bright side, I landed EXACTLY on target!! Has this ever happened to yall? I have a headache now. I think thats all the jumps im going to do for the day. Ganna go home and take a break..

Ganna do a hop and pop or two for some canopy practicee. need to get familiar with my rig... see yall there! "In this game you can't predict the future. You just have to play the odds. "-JohnMitchell

Today for work i brought enough lasagna for everyone to have 2 plates, garlic bread, sodas, ice cream, and cookies. I bought salad, bu forgot it at home. Lets see how it plays out today "In this game you can't predict the future. You just have to play the odds. "-JohnMitchell
  12. Niether. Some douche overheard me and one of my CLOSE freinds talking at one of our wharehouses.. Long story short, i was kiding around with MY CLOSE FRIEND and said " yea, we dont do anything around here.. eat and sleep".. It was a personal joke. My close freind knows how much i actually do down here. So... Now my WHOLE unit is ticked off at me. nobodies talking. they dont understand. and this douche that overheard totally messed the story up. So now people think I said things I didnt say... Oh.. and nobody believes my side of the story.. "In this game you can't predict the future. You just have to play the odds. "-JohnMitchell
  13. If you fly into Houston, let me know. Im 30 minutes from Hobby airport, and about a hour from Bush Intercontental. I know a guy at spaceland ( which is about a hour from IAH) that rents out bunk beds for $20 bucks a night... You can give him a call at Skydive Spaceland. His name is Ron. Let him know who you are, and how long you will be staying.. Send me a PM if you go to Houston and need/want a ride "In this game you can't predict the future. You just have to play the odds.
