Daizey 0 #1 October 2, 2006 I did for my 100th jump! Ok, so I did it like, 2 months ago, but I just now got the video online So I thought I'd share. I held the potato head the whole time- we didn't get it fully assembled -only 1 ear, a nose (which if you watch closely ends up falling off), and the eyes. We also lost an ear Check it out- Mr. Potato head jump, August 22, 2006 *daizey* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtval 0 #16 October 2, 2006 wasn't so much a back slide as it was stolen air.(nope wasn't me) I'm not even sure where to find a Potato head nevermind getting people to build one in freefall. LOLMy photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hookitt 0 #17 October 2, 2006 You've started something. When people ask what to do for their 100th jump, the new answer will be. "Assemble a Mr Potato Head" Want to bet that there will be several skdydivers buying Mr Potato Heads in the next couple days?My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry...

littleskycrab 0 #19 October 2, 2006 mmmm, yeah, I just got a Mr. Potato Head. Spence ya wanna help me assemble it this weekend at SDA? Seems like a whole bunch of fun. Next time a sunrise steals your breath or a meadow of flowers leaves you speechless, remain that way. Say nothing and listen as heaven whispers, "Do you like it? I did it just for you."

tigra 0 #20 October 2, 2006 Actually, she didn't start it. There was a Mr. Potato Head contest at the Team Funnel Memorial Day boogie at SDC at least 3 years ago. I'm not sure if it was a Team Funnel invention or where they got the idea from, but there were some really great videos. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 15 #21 October 2, 2006 I remember seeing this at WFFC 02 if you want to go even further back It was a lot of fun, even if I did get my air stolen a few times. Seeing some of the smiles on the jump reminds me about how much fun this sport can have.
