ltdiver 3 #1 November 12, 2003 Jay is currently well on his way to a new world record tonight! He started his new 24 hour quest just after 8:05 AM this morning and is on a new record setting pace. If he keeps up this pace set so far, he will have 544 skydives in 24 hours. Exit altitude: 2,100' Fastest plane turn around (Porter) 2 minutes 5 seconds! Fastest climb to altitude: 56 seconds! Jay lands, and while he has JUST finished his flare and is running out, he unclips his leg straps and runs to his next held rig. He's only on the ground for a mere few seconds... There are 2 Porters, 30 Javelin rigs with Spectre mains. All Cypres equipped. Jay himself has packed ALL the reserves. It's freakin' AMAZING watching this all happen! Stay tuned! ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I would but he's not stopping to talk right now.... Actually, one news reporter wanted to do an interview with Jay and asked John DeSantis to arrange it for him. John grinned and 'invited' him to ride along to 'interview' Jay in freefall... Nope, he's not stopping. And the support personnel are awesome!

Jay was on the ground for 15 minutes before we got the other Porter up in the air. So now he only has one plane. And it is still raining.. Jay has now done 456 jumps and he has 3.5 hours to go. Not the best conditions but he is going strong!! ______________________ from www.mostjumps.com edited to clarify.
