wmw999 2,116 #2 January 15, 2008 a. Happy Birthday (and nice choice, I might add ) b. You can't get her to start jumping. She has to decide. But obviously she's cool; if you ask her out to the DZ and include her in the social stuff, then it'll be a part of her life regardless. Wendy W. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

It was pretty cool her and another friend took a GI Joe and attached a functional (yes I tested it) round parachute to him then stuck a balloon on a plastic stick and had him landing in the cake...

wildfan75 1 #7 January 15, 2008 Very cute! Attached is a not very good picture of a cake that someone at work did for me and Jamie for our 53rd b-day last year. No matter how many pictures I show them, they just don't understand that I don't jump a round canopy, but it was yummy! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnMitchell 14 #9 January 16, 2008 Wow, she's a keeper.It's tough convincing someone to solo who doesn't really desire to. Let her sit in on a few FJCs, just for fun. She'll at least get to see how easy it really is to skydive, and the repetition of the material may make it seem more normal to her. She's welcome to sit in on one of my classes anytime. ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
