And don't forget:

"CTD" ~ "Circling The Drain"

What a DGIT does after ignoring the
"Well, there's always Golf" speech...
and continuing to jump.:o

I've heard of a Kevorkian, but that was in reference to getting our reserve rush packed the night before, and finding a rigger after the beer light has been on, or using a packer whose girlfriend you ave slept with. Never yourself, since, well, Kevorkian was the help, not the subject. :P

Penetration - the ground of speed of a parachute when pointed antiparallel to the wind direction.
Spanking - a very fast inflation of the parachute when deployed, resulting in discomfort and possibly pain to the skydiver.
Horny Gorilla - a type of linked exit typically done by freeflyers.

:ph34r:



Horny Gorilla.... Spanking..... Penetration....

Use those three in one sentence and you will have a hard time convincing a whuffo that you are talking about skydiving.

Waterbug -

Getting as big as you can after you have gone low on a formation - as seen on many videos.
I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama

Ka-chinged- as in Johnny ka-ching ka-chinged last weekend. - Same as above only not so intentional... and done with a parachute

Biffed - as in Johnny biffed in on his reserve last weekend. - Landed like a chump on a canopy that he was too excited to practice flair under...

Creeper bowling - The stupid rainy day sport that caused me wiplash in May that still hurts (hint: don't use full Culligan water bottles as bowling pins)

Dirt alert - audible altimeter that tells you when you are close to eating dirt.. so it's time to pull your pud.

Bone-us altidude - the extra altitude that the pilot needs to ensure enough time to pull his pud on the way down, usually preceed by someone in the plane making a deposit in the pilots mental "spank bank"
