dterrick 0 #76 June 21, 2004 QuoteOne jump. A writer from a large paper came out and did a tandem jump. He rode up with our 11-way on the plane. Johnny and another Muff Bro docked on him. I think it is important to have a good relationship with the press and have them portray a positive image. Of course, he hung around us all day... :2:1 We too had a freelancer from our biggest daily come out and hang out on Saturday. Most of the day we were on wind hold and he left with plans to return on Sunday (I had RW duties elsewhere). We didn't get air until nearly 9 PM but I I hade a great 3 way with a cop and a tax auditor (man I love this sport ... when or where else can you say you enjoy the company of such professionals?) Friday night I made it out in time for the sunset load. It was one of those postcard moments that made me glad that I have a large, slow, Nimbus '86 shoehorned into my equally old and comfortable Racer. Sunsets under a slow canopy rock - maybe next time I'll borrow a ZP Manta 288 and see if I can stop time!! We discovered that the golf course on which we occasionaly land due to spotting mals has a kick-ass kitchen, dirt cheap prices, is well within para-hike (or stumbling) distance, and is open till 2 ayem every night. Other nig-noggery involved certain rituals only performable at an airport and with some climbing knowledge . My 2 way went fine but a rookie funneled the 3-way with a 'thud'. I owe the case on general prnciple since the P.C. statement made is always "we've NEVER done that before" . That's my story and I'm stickin' to it. Is it Friday yet?

freeflir29 0 #90 June 22, 2004 2:6:0 Good weekend. All free fly jumps. Most of them chasing some sort of unstableness but all fun. Did a tracking dive Sunday evening with TJ as the rabbit. I was supposed to be farther back but some knuckle head didn't get in his spot in the door. Oh lucky me....I was right inside the door next to TJ. Stayed second on the left until 7K when he punched it out. Then did my first 360 approach in a couple years. Had to beat down TJ, Sporto, and Marshal since they pulled so much higher than me. Anyway.....another FINE weekend only to be rivaled by the next! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChasingBlueSky 0 #94 June 22, 2004 Quote:5:brewery So I spent the weekend at SDC. First of all I want to say its a place full of luxury and comfort. Seroiusly - I was awed by the paved roads, the amazing bathrooms, the great little restaurant and a most well appointed and friendly staffed bar with it's tikki bar extension by the pond. Saturday I made one great jump with Sunshine who is a great gal and I had great fun. Then I made 3 16-way jumps and did not really screw up any of them Last jump of the day I did a solo joy ride to goof out in the sky. SDC rocks. In the evening I went with the old 'lets get drunk and do something stoopid' motto. By now I should buy a brewery - it would be cheaper. Just how much do you remember from Sat night? FYI - As I saw the sun peeking over the horizon I said out loud "there is no longer any reason for me to be awake" as I left over 10 people at the bonfire...Jraf being one of them!_________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

ryand96 0 #95 June 22, 2004 :17:1 17 jumps this week. 3 Tue/4 Thu/5 Sat/5 Sun Would have gotten more in over the weekend if I didn't sleep until noon on Sunday and work half the day on Saturday. Owe beer for my first two plane shot. Did two of 'em. One from the lead plane in the base and one from the trail plane. That was fun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
