OK so who got some cool jumps in today?

Recommended Posts

I did a tandem with the wife of a couple that wanted to jump together (used the 182 today).... She and he were both cool and the dive went well! What more can you ask for!! Beautiful Wx and awesome viewsand good fun by all!

Geesh I has the same fight with my Fluffy about a year ago...

-That bastage canopy won then, too. >:( Then I had a packer show Fluffy who's boss. B| Now it goes in the bag with minimal fightage. (<--Well, it's been locked in there for two months now, dunno about the next time it sees air. It'll prolly slam me in spite! :|)

I wrote the plane down twice... which was a bummer...

and its not jump related... but on saturday when my friend was having problems getting his brand new (like 30 jumps) Sabre2 canopy packed I was able to step up and pack it for him... which I wouldn't have been able to do 40 jumps ago... B| (I didn't ask for anything... and I wouldn't consider it either... because frankly I had soooo many people help me out when I was learning myself... ;))

It was exciting!!!

Saturday, made 3 rw jumps with Valinda (my beautiful wife of 21 years next Thursday, thank you very much), the largest a 20 way celebrating a friend's birthday. Then I took a great lady up on her second tandem with me. She's the gf of a jumper and is thinking about getting into the sport. We had a great jump and a wonderful time. i hope she keeps it up. Bought beer for a friend who did some work for me on a T-shirt design, so that makes me like 2-4-1 for the weekend. B|

Did a hop-n-pop from 12k feet. First jump on a Katana. Under canopy I could see Sunset Beach, Pipeline, and Waimea Bay. It was a slight north wind, so we were 1/4 to a 1/2 mile out to sea.

Oh yeah, and on opening, I saw the entire island of Oahu. It opened in a spin.
Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
