skybytch 259 #5 May 3, 2009 8:0:0 At least 8 hours spent playing silly games on the Wii. Hitting scarecrows while racing cows is good stuff. Rain = no skydiving. To be expected, it always seems to rain on the weekends closest to my birthday. That's okay though, there will be plenty of sun to play in over the next few months.

Misternatural 0 #9 May 4, 2009 --Wooohooo first jump of the year, finally!! Borrowed rig, My reserve being repacked, broken altimeter discovered during climb, and wicked line twists- but who cares!! I still got some big air!!!Huzzah!! Add: before I get flamed for being reckless- i did notify an instructor in the plane who also had an audible who let me use his wrist dial-(thanks man) and I said I was pulling at 4 grand on the ground due to the borrowed rig and first jump of the year and i was able to twist faster than the winding lines with plenty of air- soBeware of the collateralizing and monetization of your desires.

jacketsdb23 45 #11 May 4, 2009 0:1:0 I don't know if a hop n' pop from a decending cessna at 2700ft counts...but damn...it felt good after sitting around all day. staff: the students have all opted for a better day pilot: cool, lets go home Staff: No AWOS says we can get 2500ft pilot: your joking? staff: Nope, lets go.

skymama 35 #12 May 4, 2009 Quote At least 8 hours spent playing silly games on the Wii. lol...my son came to my house today and promptly beat all my scores on my new Wii Fit. I spent almost an hour trying to get back to #1 today when I was supposed to be cleaning the house. I could only manage to beat him at step aerobics! I told him I always did like his sister better.

JohnMitchell 14 #14 May 4, 2009 Too many obligations to go out Saturday, but Vskydiver and I went out today, made 4 jumps from the Otter. Kind of cold on the first one, but dressed warmer for the rest. Valinda was working with her new video setup. Got some good video, some of the time.Not a big crowd today at the DZ. Ran out of jumpers before we ran out of daylight. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pinkfairy 0 #16 May 4, 2009 0 New to us pilots, kinda interesting GPS spotting, I think we could have played a "field bingo" game today "Oh, I guessed the unplowed field next to the highway, and someone GOT there!" But nice apart from that. Did some fun head up jumps with some new people, and I think I'm resolving my backsliding issue, that's just one issue of my many issues, but I'm working on them. Did some free packjobs for a friend and helped some students with the packing, because I'm NICE. And kindRelax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet. I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baksteen 84 #18 May 4, 2009 Quote I told him I always did like his sister better. Taken out of context, that would make a nice sigline Anyhew... :0:0 No jumps for me - but through the efforts of many, all 17 new SL-students did get their first three jumps in on Saturday. It is awesome how everyone did the best they could in making Saturday a succes. Unfortunately the second big student event on Sunday had to be cancelled due to high winds. The plan was to take the advanced students to another DZ for RW instruction from 12k. This weekend, even though even PCMN can't beat the weather, we have shown that despite all the difficulties we are faced with courtesy of ATC we are far from defeated."That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BillyVance 34 #23 May 4, 2009 I planned to jump at The Farm Sunday, but the weather was looking pissy, and then I had to run for cover when the green-tinted wall cloud started screaming over.
