livendive 8 #56 July 31, 2008 Quote I'm kind of curious how many people are posting but haven't jumped in over 6 months. Then why wasn't 6 months an option? Last Saturday for me. Got winded (actually gusted) out Sunday. Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danielcroft 2 #57 July 31, 2008 Once on Saturday & twice on Sunday. Weather was crappy, but it cleared up enough for me to jump which was nice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frenchy68 0 #62 July 31, 2008 My last jump was in November 2005. A weird 4 way something with Diablo, Skylord & Beth at Perris. I moved to China a week later, and there are no DZ nearby. But there is life after skydiving... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

birdlike 0 #63 July 31, 2008 It's been before the start of 2008 unfortunately. I need a repack, and my CYPRES2 needs a servicing before I can jump again. Oh, and my USPA needs renewing -- I might do that this weekend, and get my rig to the rigger in a few weeks if possible. I should mention... I &^#@& miss the sky!!!

birdlike 0 #64 July 31, 2008 This thread spurred me to check... I looked at my log book and discovered... it's been just over a YEAR since I last skydived. It was 25 July 2007. So... what did I do? I JUST RENEWED MY USPA MEMBERSHIP ONLINE!! As soon as I can, I'll get my gear back the way it needs to be, and I'll be up in the *!^ AIR, baby!! Ya gotta get off your ass if you're gonna make it happen, right? One step, then the next... and so on. - First step: taken!

MikeJD 0 #65 July 31, 2008 Quote This past weekend at the UKS Boogie, from 4 different aircraft Same here - 11 jumps - but all from the same aircraft (Dornier G92). Damned serious team training getting in the way of boogie fun. Even on the one fun jump - the Saturday evening formation load where I stood as good a chance of being put on the Caravan or the Skyvan - I ended up back on the Dornier.

tbrown 26 #73 July 31, 2008 It's been almost two weeks, which is normal for me. I've got a family, obligations, "a life", and don't jump the way I did when I was single, young & dumb. I try to get out to the dropzone every 2 - 3 weeks, once in a while I'll jump two weekends in a row. Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity !

I think I have like, 20 jumps in the last week? Last time I took an "entire" weekend off was winter. Over the 4th I only jumped one day, does that count?
