NeilRobertson 0 #1 April 21, 2005 Hi all, I'm a newbie from Johannesburg, South Africa was a military jumper 27years ago and at last am back, i'm difinately not the youngest jumper at the club, but totally addicted anyway. My home DZ is Witbank. Done 51 jumps and busy with my ISP, loving it being in the sky with another jumper. Just about to start buying my own rig.

flyangel2 2 #3 April 21, 2005 Welcome NeilThere are other jumpers that post here from South Africa, let me think if I can remember any of their names............ Oh silly me, there is that one guy Sangiro May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.

bbarnhouse 0 #4 April 21, 2005 Welcome Neil! Yes there are several jumpers from South Africa that post here, as well as in the industry. It's pretty cool to go to boogies here in the US and hear them all speaking "some" language from that continentWe'll expect nothing less from you! LOL Cheers!
