I think we should stop reporting on the number of humps ... nobody seems to want to disclose that information anyway. Hell, if I had something to brag about, I would ... but I (still) don't [:/] ...

The weather was relatively good this weekend, but I didn't go to the DZ; I just didn't feel it. I was in a deep state of "blah" all weekend and didn't want to jump that way - I didn't want to "forget" pulling :ph34r: ...

Big zero here...
nighshift...

But then again, on friday I leave for a week jumping in France.

Why was your cutaway, and how did you respond since it was your first? Just curious, I didn't have to use mine (glad to) but am wondering about the state of mind people get in to after their first cutaway....

3 H&Ps from 3500 - still being checked out for JM/SL.

According to the students my acting the role of 'experienced, unshakable, enthusiastic JM' is very convincing. :)
That was after the :D-light came on and I was laughing with my CI and the students about me getting completely confused when the pilot intentionally went on jump run 45 degrees off the planned course, just to mess with my head.

(Of course, the next jump i was prepared for anything but the CI and pilot were nice to me:)

B| : 6 : none i'll admit to!

so, i miss this certain someone; so no humps!

did six jumps at out boogie from friday on; weather pretty much sucked, and saturday i was sooooo hungover, after 2 WS-jumps i even paid a packer to take care of my rig. sunday i did my first helijump and a nice 2-way head-up jump with a friend. and won the boogie-lottery in the evening, so all of them were free! :D

First Prosthetic passenger. Not a huge beer, but it was great to see him so excited when I told him I could take him!!

Tandems, 3 hop and pops, and one full altitude fun load.

11 tandems
2 tandem videos
1 2 way sit
1 night jump
1 H & P

The H&P was pretty cool. A father and son on a trip trying to mark off some more states while they shoot for all 50. The son was at 38 and the dad at 28 I believe. Pretty cool.

Beer owed for first time working with tandem students at a different dz, first night jump at a different dz and first time landing off at a different dz.

Not disclosing any details on humps!

Made 2 jumps on Friday.
Saturday it poured the entire day.
Sunday I made 5 total:
2 static line students
1 on a five second delay (Markus - we are going to get you past 5 seconds! I promise!)
3 coach jumps from altitude (all were able to dock on me so that got them some sigs for their A license).
1 fun jump with Tony from 6,500
1 hoop jump from 9,500 - and I was first through the hoop!

No beer.

One of the students said he felt like he got "World Class Instruction". That really made my day!!!!!

Yesterday was just an awesome day!

1:1:Not sure the etiquette

Given the fact I am in AFF training and just did my C1 Jump, every jump I am doing something beerworthy new. I also have a bunch of small children, so I haven't been to a bonfire yet. I guess I will try to get a baby sitter and show up labor day weekend with a couple of cases of beer.
For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

Still working on finishing up my 'A'. Did a solo jump on Saturday to warm up then a coach jump and got some more stuff signed off on my yellow card. Did the packing course on Sunday and then jumped my pack job.
