Weekend numbers... 28-29 oct 06

Recommended Posts

:)
Only went to the DZ this weekend to take a mate up for a tandem and ended up getting a jump in which was a nice surprise considering the forecast! Was home by the afternoon and out partying by 7!

Nice lazy morning in bed and not a parachute in sight! Ahhh sometimes you have to just chill out as extreme waiting plays with your mind and your life!

No jumps, but I did take a really fun ride in this!

I attended a most fantastic Halloween party last night at Chicagoland Skydiving, and I went as a bachelorette! :D Andyman had the best costume ever, though....maybe he'll be inspired to post some pics! Good times....

Sigh...I really should go study now....
There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

20-30 mph winds on the surface kept us on the ground yesterday... but they let up a bit (13-25 mph forcasted) today and we managed to get 4 chilly Otter loads in the air today...

18 Abseils (rappels) off of a 135 metre (450feet) building.
i spent Saturday and Sunday filming (camera helmets are way heavier when not in freefall) people descend down a city building for charity. The event raised over $250,000 for our Childrens Hospital.B|B|
It was a lot of fun but my kidneys are a bit tender from sitting in the harness for so longB|
You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky)

I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama

When do they call the season up there?

I believe we have the otter through 12 Nov, though many of the instructors (including the DZO) are leaving for Lake Wales (and other places, one of the instructors is going to Hawaii for the winter) this week.

but we will have a Cessna 182 at the DZ all Winter and are likely to jump if
1. the weather permits,
2. we can get a pilot to fly,
3. we have runway conditions (since its a grass strip)

then the season is usually back in gear late March/early april
