Dblock06 0 #1 August 22, 2007 Whats going down group... Been a long time follower of the sport and have always had an interest. I grew up practically at the late Skydive East in central NJ and watched my dad jump for tons of years. When I turned 16, we both did a jump, my first tandem, and his 100th. It was very very cool and from the start I was hooked. Moved out west to longmont colorado after high school with my backyard being the dropzone of Mile-High skydiving literally. I once was leaving my house and a jumper landed of course next to my car in a field by the farm and I drove him back to the dropzone. Now 23, pops just gave me another tandem for my b-day and next summer im taking the AFF classes down at crosskeys. Sorry about the life story but its early and im bored. lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dblock06 0 #4 August 22, 2007 Well my dad just moved down to Florida for some nicer weather and a job. He actually took up powered powergliding!! It seems really cool with this big prop and engine strapped to your back. He still has his rig so maybe one day we can jump again Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
