Weekend Numbers!

Recommended Posts

[:/]:6:1

6 jumps if I count the 2 on Wednesday. 4 on Saturday including an 8way drill dive where we didn't take any grips except for one point right out of the plane. That was great practice.

1 case of beer owed for the first jump on my new rig.

You should post the Video Wingnut! It is badass :)0-7-0 Was a great weekend and seeing wingnut trying to get back to the DZ under his paracommander was pretty exciting arround the DZ. For those that haven't been to Skydive Ogden there isn't allot of outs for a Paracommander:S. We was worried he was ending up on I-15 but wingut did a great job of getting back safe. Everyone was pretty impressed!

OK, Bill, what is that in your avatar?

Lots of family stuff over the weekend and massive headaches too, so only 2 jumps in. 1 2-way (Ron is an evil fruitlooper) and 1 impromptu sorta-tracking dive.

My new Pilot behaved very well...I am thrilled with it. :)
Woke up feeling like ass this morning so I'm at home.

Glad you got some jumps in Tomas. Get good with your video skills cause i'll be returning to the air in a few weeks so we can play on our heads. :)

First multiple-jump day that I stood up ALL my landings......probqbly won't make the lead for the NBC Nightly News, but it was a personal goal I'd been trying to hit for a looooong time. :)

It might not make me very popular, but they can drink their stuff, I'll drink my own, and we can still socialize just the same...



Does not share with others, needs to work on social skills.



Wonder if he shared well with the other kids on the playground at recess?

Bringing items to share with fellow sky brothers and sisters is always a good idea. Kindness goes a long way, in and out of the skydiving world.

Felt lazy on Saturday after being kept up late the night before (but with good reason), and the winds got squirrelly in the afternoon (welcome to Elsinore!), but got two nice jumps in anyway. A fun 6-way with Michele and a fun (and exciting) 9-way SCR attempt that turned into a huge zoo, but was a lot of fun anyway, despite ending up in the basement to get clear air.. :o

Here is what I did this weekend - Starting Friday Morning, I worked 22 hours straight, slept on the floor for two hours, took a shower, and worked for another 11 hours. Then I worked mother's day until about 5ish. [:/]

Well I had a stellar weekend! Absolutely jumped my booty off.

1:19:4

1 - smack in the head because I completely forgot mother's day and spent most of the day jumping. (That was one expensive mistake:S.)

19- jumps, WOW! I am at 97 jumps now. Don't think I will be able to hold off till my b-day to do number 100. Oh-well, May 29th will still be a great day anyway.

3- Firsts.

1st DZ.commer to stay at my home (chuteless, Rosie sends hugs.)

1st off landing (actaully had four of them and the last one was 2 miles out but I was not alone as five of us chose that field to land in:D.)

1st 6-way completed. Actually got everyone in and I did not go low! (yay me!)

1st ride to altitude with Bill Cole! (Awesome to see you in the air!)

9 jumps over 3 days(sat,sun,mon) Some of the best time I've had yet :ph34r:

Beer for first time out of a 205, and beer for first time flying "around" some clouds, which by the way make you feel pretty small when they are ~10,000 ft tall :o

Edited: I got to jump with two of you guys, BoostedXT and n32X (one was graduation from AFF, the other licensed).

Boosted: what absolute fun! Glad you got your solo too.

N23X: Aha! So you posted all that about your A license jump! Yes, I was also relieved when I saw your opening, but the difference is that I *knew* it was going to open.

I have to say, your grin in freefall belied the terror you must have been feeling about opening. It's funny, when we're in freefall, all that other stuff just goes away until it's time...

It was as much fun for me as it was for you. Lovely, fun, actually privileged to be the one to make you a licensed skydiver! Thanks, Jim!! Next weekend I buy, OK?
