Recommended Posts

Hate this timezone crap...all you lot are still out jumping!!! Ahhh well.

0:2:can't remember!!!

Two cool solo's...although, I had to repeat stage 5 in AFF. I dont think I went over the jump in my head enough, I attempted to dock before I did my 360!!! *giggles* I still need to master landing on my feet!

As for the beer, went to a huge 21st on Saturday night. Free keg. Hence why I cant remember how many I downed:$:D:)



Don't bother me, I'm living happily ever after

It's how many you bought, as in how many FIRSTs. ;)

As a matter of fact I did, a HUGE sweet potato with cinnamon butter.......that went with my prime rib. And for desert, fresh keylime pie.



I love keylime pie!! When i get down to FL, i'll allow you to take me out to eat and buy me some. :) (Did you think of me while eating the potato?)

One very close call on needing my first cutaway due to a canopy which was hard to stop spinning (but I did finally control it just before my hard deck).

And four fun jumps (three free flies and one tracking jump) on a cool but not cold sunny day here in CO.

All in all, not bad seeing as this is the first day in a week that it hasn't snowed which has been good for skiing and not so good for skydiving. :S



Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

Four this weekend.

2 B-rel jumps, and I finally passed B-rel 2. Note to self: don't reach for grips. They've put weights on me for the time being, so I don't have to concentrate as hard on not being floaty.

1 jump into the Busselton Air Show. That was good. We planned a 6 way, it built to 5. break off at 4.5 and I dumped at 3.5k. I was the first open, everyone saw me first... nya nyaaa :), and my landing was only 10m from the cross. Looking down at all the acft on the ground was neat.

1 canopy control demo for some S/L students. A nice easy jump on that one. Practiced some leg and arm turns. dump at 3. had an FXC fire as I dumped ( it was set at 2.5) Full canopy control for me by the TA. I just enjoyed the view.

A nice weekend.

Yes....but how many people know where the totem at the center of the Tiki bar came from? Or, should I say, how it was appropriated...;)

I wonder if the totem misses Deland?

"A line 2 in wide, called the spiking line, extends across each of the two playing areas from sideline to sideline, parallel to and at a distance of 10 ft from the center, or net, line."


Hope that snow ends soon..

Today I made my last jump at Raeford (or anywhere)for a loooong time- a nice sunset 12pt 3way headdown with Alex and Steve.
