Jump numbers for Sept. 8-9

Recommended Posts

0:2(10)::Dx2

Made 1 WS jump at Hollister with another bird for his second flight. He forgot to turn back to the DZ, so had to herd him back. Other then that, he did great. Got what I thought would be some nice video for a debrief, but the camera somehow turned off on climbout.:( Time to order a HypEye.

Then drove to Aptos. Second jump was a WS from a helicopter. Took off from the Watsonville airport and we landed on the beach at the SeaScape Resort. :D for 1st WS from a helicopter and beach landing. It was fantastic. Loved the feel of freefall until the wings generated forward drive. My brother was there to watch with binoculars and gave the crowd a play by play of each jump. He also got a few stills of us landing. Had a nice dinner with him afterwards.

Then on my way home this morning, stopped in at the new tunnel at iflySFbay to have a look. Couldn't make it out without doing 10 minutes.
50 donations so far. Give it a try.

0:4 (I included the one jump on Friday too)::Dx2

Jump#3 yesterday was my first toilet-paper tracking dive (it didn't unroll fast enough, so I just ditched both rolls at deployment time) and first jump on a sub-100 canopy, EgoMike's Crossfire2-99. I waited until the winds went up to 15 or so - not much forward speed. B|

3 totally cool CReW jumps! Two tri-planes, both of which I was the pilot, FUN, but a LOT of work. Then a two stack with Drew at sunset. This time he was the pilot and I got to go along for the ride. We flew around and watched Walt fly solo. It was pretty cool.

"fun" weekend, old teammate in for the day, all but a couple jumps were 'give back' jumps where we took a new person along on an RW jump to let them try a higher level (these are great) of speed and flying - handful of 2 way freefly - no CrW [:/]
