Weekend Numbers...

A solo sit, and two two-ways with SeaKev.

:D owed for first jump at the brand-spanking-new Northwest Skydivers DZ in Mount Vernon, WA, and for my first jump from a Porter. No complaints from me, I'm happy to bring beer to this DZ. :)

I take it you loved the place?



So far (one day), it's awesome. I'm guessing it feels kind of like The Farm did two years ago... it's not starting with a lot but a good vibe and a DZO who really, really, really wants to create an up-jumper friendly DZ. It's a little like Fandango at the moment, but in a really good way. :)
It's going to be what we make it, which is really cool.

I was on all but one load on Saturday (and that's only because I wasn't there in time for the 1st load of the day... because I wanted to take Karma to my parents for the day...)

overall a fun saturday... I did a few fun RW jumps, worked on my video flying (which needs lots of work :$... got to play around with my Camera suit though... and the ringsight is invaluable...) and one attempted hybrid that blew up a couple of times one of which I totally saw comming and was glad I decided to wear my full face on... :D:D:D

I'll load the videos up to my website later but I doubt anyone other then the guys on the dives will have any interest in seeing it... :D:D

3 stinky boys spending the night at my house. 1 busted head from a bicycle ride gone wrong and 1 subsequent trip to the local ER for thievery of supplies (dermabond). HOURS of loud music and things glowing by blacklight....and that was only the beginning.

Today is clean-up. :)

Did a two-way with Go Faster and once we got stable, he started spinning us! Once I realized it was intentional and it wasn't me screwing up, I really enjoyed it! Also, we did an awesome sunset jump...BEAUTIFUL!

Firsts...did back flip, front flip & barrel roll all good enough to pass for yellow card on first attempt on jump #11, did transition jump w/DZO on jump 12, all on Sat. Did a couple of other fun jumps on Sat too. Did one jump on Sun before weather came in. Mis-calculated, landed on the runway...NOT GOOD...owe :D to DZO for that one...no prob though...he's a cool guy!! :)

Edited to attach me landing on the runway [:/]

Ten 4-way jumps with three guys far more experienced than I. Had loads of fun and didn't completely disgrace myself :)
One 8-way for Greg's 2000th. Average jump numbers was about 3,500 and I was the only one with less jumps than Greg. Everyone was a current or former serious 4/8-way person and half the group had represented Australia at various World Meets. Absolute carnage and a very very ropey three points ensued :P.

I went apt shopping, watched a darn cool show, and celebrated my nephew's fifth birthday!!!! He is oh so cute, and I can't believe that it was five years ago I went to the hospital and held him for the first time. I feel old for agreeing that they do "grow up fast."

I also recommend against drinking on an empty stomach. [:/]
There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning
