0 - nothing has changed!

15 - Wow!, talk about a busy weekend on the Beach!!! I'll break it down......

Saturday - (11) Started the day with a reunion 4 way scramble dive. Some guy we hadn't jumped with in a while came from his home DZ to jump the beach! Rock on Ruppert! Knocked out 6 tandems and 2 vids, got a good four way in with a new jumper. (Larry owes beer for first four way from a 182 while exiting from the V!) After all of this, what could be better, well, a sunset BEACH JUMP! That's right folks, a beautiful red sky and sandy beaches makes a perfect day!

Sunday - (4) Had to leave early but still got some in... Did a four way to start (7 pts.) Knocked out another tandem, then did a two way drill dive (15 pts.) Finished the day with a nice BEACH JUMP. Lots of people watching and got whoops and yells on landing! It was Awesome!! BEACH JUMPS ROCK!

0 - no cases owed. Only 5 more months till I can fall off of the wagon. (Gave up beer for New Years resolution.)

10 : 3 : 0

3 nice fun jumps Sunday. 10 frozen fingers. It's bloody cold at 14 K at the moment (middle of winter down here). People overseas think it is always hot in OZ - its not in the southern part of the continent during winter. Actually can see the snow covered snowfields from the plane.... But jumpable most week-ends as it does not rain that much or low clouds that often....

Sorry to hear about your toe, Lizzie. But, now you can join the "broken toe club" with Sunshine and me! :ph34r: Sunshine was right- just throw some tape around it and you can keep jumping.

Ok, now that 3 of us have broken toes, maybe the streak is over. It is kinda funny though. :)

:P:12:1

Had the stomach flu Saturday and Sunday so that cut into category one.

4 fun jumps, a 4 way, a 5 way, a photo shoot of Boy and Girlfalldown (pics up tonight), a zoo, and 8 tandem videos, fun to be riding the plane with Jim again. Got probably my best tandem video so far. The tandem masters are getting VERY comfortable with me so we're doing docks and spins with the passengers (Err, students) very fun. Even though I had horrible cramps both days and it was over 100 f.

The first was my first non-wife freefall kiss. Thanks, Shannon, that was a great 300th skydive!

1: B|

9: great jumps, covering H&Ps to tryout a new canopy, mini-CRW jump from 7 k, and to top it off an amazing 16 way hybrid (8 base + 8 hang) in which I was NOT the last hanger to dock (yea freeflyer on his belly... it's ugly dude :P).

?: 1st posting of hump number for actual cause, 1st Jedei jump, 1st successful bigway hybrid as a hanger, 1st CRW work jump... still counting.

Four team practice jumps, three with free-flown exits that came together REALLY easy, Sweet flying, Guys!

Jumped my daughter Sarah's first all-by-herself packjob! Nice opening! She made 15 bucks packing for me Sunday. Her openings are better than mine, too. I think I'll keep her on the payroll.

Easy Does It
