TallGuy 0 #1 June 28, 2004 So what is your best story from the 2004 American Boogie? I would say that mine was that I learned a serious lesson while I was lurking a hybrid. On break off I was still in a stand trying to get down to the rest of the group(not being at break off altitude myself). Due to a lack of awareness on my part I didn't realize that they had started breaking off until I damn near had someone track incredibly fast right into me. If we had collided it likely would have been disastrous for us both. I definitely learned that aside from being more heads up I need to begin my break off earlier when I'm a good bit away from the main group near break off time. It's a shame to have learned that lesson from experience. I also feel the need to acknowledge the car accident that occurred Saturday night. But I'd like to leave that to another post from someone who knew more about what happened and the people involved much better than I do. That said, many of our thoughts are with everyone involved and that we are just happy that nobody died as a result of it. Hope to see everyone back again next year!

TallGuy 0 #3 June 28, 2004 Ouch. That hurts. I've been jumping all weekend long for the past two weeks. Where have you been Jeff? But you do have a point I'm not out as much as I used to be. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shawndiver 0 #7 June 28, 2004 QuoteSo what is your best story from the 2004 American Boogie? Meeting Geno, "The Human Alcohol Sponge" on Friday night and witnessing the gruesome hangover he was sporting the next day. And meeting TallGuy as well, he is easy to pick out of a crowd! Maybe I will try this free flying stuff... On Sunday, launching an eight way piece off the tailgate, our front three went just a step too far and fell off the ramp. They dangled out there for a couple of seconds hanging on their grips until everyone figured out what had happened and we all went out the back and still pulled of the piece perfectly! Gotta love tailgates! An awesome 4 point 22 way, vertical transition 16 ways, an awesome weekend with some awesome jumpers! Thanks all!_________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites mcneill79 0 #8 June 29, 2004 My Birdman rodeo with you was awesome...

TallGuy climbing was fun too I'm glad you enjoyed the rodeo. It sure seems like it'd be fun to ride on one. Sadly I don't think anyone I know could keep their wings out with the extra weight of having me on their back. Always a pleasure to be Northern California's mobile Mt. Everest. It was good to meet you Betty. Hope you can make the rounds and visit us sometime soon.
