Weekend Numbers?

Recommended Posts

Ok so i've never started one of these threads (and when i searched i couldn't find one for the past weekend), so here goes: humps, jumps, beer bought

1: 8: 3

8 jumps this weekend, beer bought for my first jumps on a Velo, my first atmonauti flight and for the fact that i flew my first tandem camera jumps on my back from exit to deployment, feels so good. :)

4 jumps
2 x tandem video jumps (just to see if I could do it) the tandems where Hand Cam videoed, I flew in front to see how hard it was. I did pretty good with no wings and no site:)
1 x "B Rel" Coach Jump (had more planned but the winds blew in and stayed above student allowances all day)

1 x 3 way Horny into a sit with 2 Mates that I dont get to jump with often, It was a SWEET jump, Much fun and smiles all around:)

Came home Saturday and watched Round 1 of the World Superbikes from Qatar, it's going to be a good year for racing with Max Biagi riding in WSK now:)
You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky)

deploying on the back feels good ??? Must try that :D

One of our students did that once on his first jump off of the static line. Went unstable, pulled on his back. Did a backflip through the risers, then a downwinder into the corn. I had decided to name him CornStar after that, but he never came back [:/]

Ah you know what i mean you cheeky f**ker! :D:P:)
I have decided that X-brace canopies kick ass though!

Do I really ? :| :D:D

They kick ass until they kick yours.. Stay safe young padawan. Remember JSC is a high altitude DZ etc etc....

And congrats to Sherie for her 500th :P

If you're in the Southern hemisphere, you have to deploy while on your back. It's like the syphon thing. Everything is reversed down there.:|

Of course:0:"1"

The "1" is in quotes because technically it was not a beerable offense. The 12" of snow we got put a damper on jumping but I was voted Student of the Year at our annual club meeting. Too bad it is a kiss of death thing. The plaque is riddled with names of students that don't jump anymore. So I started to say my good byes to everyone. Hopefully I'll be able to break the curse!!!

Hmmm..again...still a newlywed...:1:0

Fun weekend @ the Sweetheart Boogie in Mesquite, NV. Awesome group of jumpers there...we were really treated right! JTVAL...what a class act! (filmed a bunch for us this weekend!) My brother-in-law did his first tandem...was awesome to see him try to wipe the smile off his face for the rest of the day! Watched my husband achieve a skydiving milestone...but he gets to post about that! :ph34r:

70 degrees in Mesquite....5 hrs north...20 degrees and snowing! YUCK!!
To borrow a line from Squeak...MY LIFE ROCKS!! HOW'S YOURS??!!!
