If found, I vote we just put em in Levin's rig and push em out the door. "Hope you know how to pilot a chute buddy". Thievery SUCKS! 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

Stretching is good. I'll propose a couple of other things. When thinking of arch, squeeze your butt muscles, I tell my students to pretend like your trying to hold a quarter with your butt cheeks. And remember that the upper body should be relaxed, If your thinking about bringing your head up, your probably arching at the chest. Don't do that.

He actually landed it with a pretty nice swoop. I was standing next to Johann (it was his rig) when fish was coming in and he said "about now would be a good time". Fish waited another couple seconds before turning in. I think he's going to buy it. And Carl Carpenter did get video of this. They're going to do it again and get more video angles.

2 skydivers, lets call them Doc Steve & Mr. Hand (aka: Steve Hockey), exit in a Mr. Bill configuration, (one jumper stradles the other, the floater pulls out the door, 2 people under one canopy). Steve rode Doc out and they got the Mr. Bill. Now steve hooks up to Doc's Harness with a repelling rope. (strapped to leg on exit). And repels the length of the rope and hangs approx 50 ft below Doc. Enter Fish, who has also exited the otter under a Jedi 104. As Steve disconnects from the rope and hangs by holding on, Fish approaches from the rear and attempts to fly his body into steve so steve can transfer from the rope to another Mr. Bill with Fish. Fish's first try was rather fast and high, he has to hit the rope hard enough with caonpy to cause him to swing forward to reach Steve, and not to hard as to wrap the rope, and the difficulty is increased since he has to release the toggles and risers to hang on to Steve as they dock. Carl Carpenter was hovering around with video and it's quite interesting. Fish and Steve were able to dock on the second try and you should have seen that Jedi surge forward with a 4.0 wing loading. Then Steve let go about 4.5k and had a little bit of freefall and then opening. Much yaa-hoo'ing and stuff on the ground. And again it looked cool on video. Anybody ever hear of this being done before? or are they the first? Which would be good for us as we can always use more beer. BSBD 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

Little black books are great. But to do any good they actually have to have some entries in them. 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

Yes size does matter. And when you can't get 20 people for a 20 way it matters a lot. You dont have to beware the Turkey Doctors or worry about your bet, I just called and informed that we won't be showing. And just as a bynote here.. It PISSES ME OFF when someone commits and then changes their mind!!!! DAMMIT.. if your not going to follow through with your commitment the don't fucking commit. It's that easy. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...... 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

Our beloved Jenn Ralsten is currently about 6 jumps away from #100. Going to try to get to 100 this Saturday. I'm sure there will be a few hop&pops involved, since #100 will be a bikini jump with a few of her friends from last weeks lingerie dive. Jenn also got a job in Philly, (as of Tues. nite), and will be leaving next Tuesday for the (gonna be) frozen northeast. TG is currently working with me re: a farwell gettogether.

I wonder what it would have done to the young ladies skull had it hit her. I advise in the future that the organizers of such an event take better percautions or someones gonna get hurt. 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock -
"But then for whatever reason...after a couple months into the relationship I can hardle stand being around him!! " One of the packers at Spaceland was telling me she had the same reaction to most guys she met, except she had figured out the reason.... "It's all the breathing IN.. AND OUT.. AND IN... AND OUT!"

I think you got it!! Jennifer Applet (?). I think I saw her at Spaceland when we were attempting the Texas State Record. She shows up now and again. 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

hey Zennie, I don't think it's the same Jenn as he said "started freeflying at Quincy 99". Our Jenn hasn't been to Quincy/Rantual yet. Sky, You possibly talking about Jenny, long blond hair, great smile, great everything else, used to be married to DZO. She took up motorcross and pretty much stopped jumping.

Pay special attention to the little arrows. Sometimes one or both pieces have to turn in a particular direction. If you don't pay attention, you wind up wondering why you scored only 5 when you know damn well it was at LEAST a 10 point skydive. Have Fun. 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.'

Will you ever have the oppurtunity to travel the states like you do now? If you didn't answer YES immediatly.... HAUL ASS!! Good Luck whatever you decide. 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock

I get this all the time. Your at a party/bar/social function and someone's going "Yeah man, I'm gonna come up and do a jump for sure". At this point I usually look at em and say "Give me a dollar", (NOTE: $ amount dependent on how much alcohol has been consumed), They'll look at you and say "What?", I tell em "If your serious give me and I'll give it back to you when I see you at the DZ". 90% of the time I get the money. I've never had to return a penny. 'In an insane society a sane person seems insane.' Mr. Spock
