NWFlyer 2 #2 June 4, 2006 0:0:1 No jumping for me, but I did pay up my beer owed for first jumps at Northwest Skydivers in April. Weather held out for a beautiful day yesterday so I made a social call to the DZ and had a wonderful afternoon/evening."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

StreetScooby 5 #11 June 4, 2006 1:0:1 Got my first warning in SC, from the venerable billvon himself. I'm still waiting for an address to send the beer to. Better hurry, because it might get drank soon Rained out yesterday at the Ranch. Ahck.We are all engines of karma Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vallerina 2 #12 June 4, 2006 0:2:1 A great, but exhausting, weekend! I went to Goshen Friday night since I had to wake up early on Saturday for 4 hours of bellydancing workshops. I was in a show that night, and I crashed after that. This morning, I made two freaking awesome skydives at Goshen, then I headed over to my nephew's birthday party (Happy Birthday, Jay!!!!!) Phew!There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amazon 7 #16 June 4, 2006 :3:0 MAN has this been a long week. Just 3 jumps for me on Saturday.. a Tandem Video and a little Porter RW with Jim...and then Shannons Memorial Dive. Today was a cieling about 200 ft and rain... The screen grabs are from my Sony PC-330 with a .42 lens.... It looked a WHOLE lot closer in freefall Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites sartre 0 #17 June 4, 2006 Do tandems count? I did my first two today.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Flying-Wench 0 #23 June 5, 2006 0:2:2 First chute packing friday night (apparently i owe a case, but im a bit suss on this one). Two Stage 4 AFF jumps saturday, failed both times. First jump, spun clockwise for the entire freefall aside when JM had a hold of me. Second jump, flat, stable and maintained hover and heading control for 30 seconds woo hoooo!!! Looking at my alti fixed that, i spun clockwise for the rest of the dive. I arched hard and slowed enough to dump, but had pilot chute hesitation, a really hard opening (im so sore) and terrible line twists! I self medicated saturday night (beer!), too hungover to jump saturday, but went for a ride in the XL anyway, kept the pilot company and in trurn he did some groovy manouvres and had me bouncing around in the seat, and yahooing the whole way down lol Needless to say, im doing Stage 4 again next weekend, they are even putting training wheels back on (back to two JMs) argg! But a good learning weekend. My packing is good, my exits are great, my landings are perfect (unassisted now - another case), just the bit in the middle i need to work on *grins* its all about the legs/arms.
