While I waited for the wind to die down (which it never did), there were a bunch of tandems.

That was only the second time I've tried photographing landings, but she was delighted with the pictures.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites MikeJD 0 #16 March 3, 2008 Well, given the wind forecast I was expecting a row of zeroes, and if we hadn't been team training I'd have stayed far from the dz. In fact on the drive over there were reports of bridges being closed and stuff. But miraculously by Saturday afternoon the winds were within limits. We made six skydives altogether, which just goes to show, if you ain't at the dropzone - and pretty much nobody else was - you can't jump whatever happens. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites wildfan75 1 #17 March 3, 2008 Awhile back I posted something about "With this RIG, I thee wed" is better than "With this RING, I thee wed". Todd remembered that and when I ordered my new container back the end of November, he decided that when my new container came it would be the day he would ask. We had already talked about the future and we picked the ring out together, so I knew he had the ring but the surprise was going to be when he asked. I was so focused on my rig that the thought of it being this weekend never crossed my mind. He put the ring in the baggie of extras for my new container. I was so pumped about my rig that he had to keep telling me that I should check out all the stuff that came with it. At one point I even picked up the bag once, put it on the back counter and told him that I'll look at it later. My house needs to sell, I need to move to Chippewa Falls and get a job, have us get settled and then we'll start to discuss dates and plans. He did it on Friday, Leap Day. The joke was that he only had to remember the anniversary of the occasion every four years. We then started to joke that maybe we should wait to get married until 2/29/12 and then he would only have to remember our wedding anniversary every four years. So right now the date is 2/29/12. So there's the story. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Lucky123 0 #18 March 3, 2008 Only managed one jump on the first load of the day Saturday and good thing since they turned the Otter back on the second load because of the winds and I could not hang around all day. This was my second sit fly jump and I held it down until 6,000 feet before going to belly and doing a few front and back flips. On my first sit fly jump I could not figure out how to turn asked around before this jump and did a few 360s in my sit this time! Had some nasty line twists on opening that took some work to get out but they did eventually come out. Next time I'll use those last 2,000 feet to slow down instead of screwing around. I always pull at 4,000. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites GogglesnTeeth 6 #19 March 3, 2008 :0:0Goggles and Teeth "You fall like a greased safe!!!"
