wildfan75 1 #55 December 10, 2007 Quote Me the DZO, DZM, and wildfan 75 spent the weekend at the dz anyway. I wore my rig around for about an hour and even signed up for the first load (something I NEVER do) just in case we actually started flying. 16 days and counting... Wisconsin winters SUCK!

gonzalesna 0 #59 December 11, 2007 2 months next week. gotta take my rig down for a repack today.Some people refrain from beating a dead horse. Personally, I find a myriad of entertainment value when beating it until it becomes a horse-smoothie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dfairleigh11 0 #60 December 11, 2007 A week and a couple days... ...we had unbelievable weather up here (cold as hell, but sunny and clear, light winds), but I HAD A FUCKING COLD!!!! So I got to sit and watch all day. At least being at the DZ watching students land is entertaining... ...especially the one that took a swim in the lake, and watching THREE people land out in the span of about 2 hours! Brand new rig is here Thursday... ...glad it wasn't here earlier, I might have been tempted to do something stupid and jump with stuffed sinuses. Already buying beer... ...soon as there's another good day, it'll be 1) First jump on new main, 2) First jump on new container, 3) First jump with new jumpsuit, and 4) First jump with new Optima.

Broke 0 #61 December 11, 2007 Quote Wow.........some of you guys are really uncurrent. I really don't know how you do it. I feel uncurrent after only a few days, and if I go a week or two I actually get nervous. It makes me realize how good I have it. Randy YOU SUCK!

JustChuteMeNow 0 #62 December 11, 2007 Nine days ago but it is cold in Iowa right now so it may be awhile before my next one. Think of how stupid the average person is and realize that statistically half of them are stupider than that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jloirsdaan 0 #75 December 11, 2007 4 months now. I broke my femur in June and I've jumped one time since then, that was in August. I need to go to the DZ and rent a bigger canopy to make a jump. My leg just isn't quite as strong as it should be (the muscle that is, the bone has healed). Jordan Go Fast, Dock Soft. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
