When you get a pay raise... forget to tell the wife and figure out how many skydives you can do with the extra cash.

I pack my d-bag the same way I do my sleeping bag. Just keeping shoving fabric in the bag until you can close the flap.

It's worked so far.ShockedAngelic

Until you pull, and all you see above you are feathers! Shocked

I was going to say " all you can see above you is down" but that seemed odd. Tongue

When you have nightmares where instead of a canopy a pillow and some lines come out.

And you still manage to land it. Smile

Now that is canopy piloting at it's best! Tongue

I`ll call it canopy pillowting

You eat canned tuna (any canned food in general really) and think mmmmm, tastes like skydiving Smile

You realize switching to instant coffee, though while disgusting, will let you get an extra 1.5 jumps in a month.

You're doing field research in rural west Africa for the summer, can't stop thinking about jumping, and vow never to do any more field work this far away from a dz ever again... $#!@

It's a friday night and you and your pilot decide to find some stuffed animals, make them garbage bag parachutes, and then break into buildings to get onto the roof to throw them off and get pics of base jumping stuffed animals with no real purpose other than just seeing something flying a parachute :) Nine years ago already...

Y'all seen the older "you know you're a skydiver when" threads? Some are epic. Ie when you're so drunk the room starts to spin :)

...when you are having a dream about making love with your girlfriend in an intersection on the street and the first thing you think of when you wake is about how awesome it must feel to be Twardo doing demo jumps. Instant shrinkage Mad
