Should I jump tomorrow?

[Emmie 0]

Ok, so the whole Florida thing didn't work out, but I refuse to give up. I'm thinking about heading down to the dz tomorrow and try to make a couple of jumps. Can't just let all that tunnel work go to waste. ( I actually would really love to jump with the jm that said I sucked and rub in his face how good I got!) Is that wrong? I'm wondering however if I should wait untill it gets a little warmer, or just head to the dz and see what happens. The winds shouldn't be that bad, but it will be in the lower 40's and partly cloudy. 40's can't be that cold can it? I really really need to jump! Plus did I mention that there's a really hot new rigger that they just hired that I wouldn't mind getting better aquainted with . OK, I just talked myself into going

were you greeted with Ice pellets at altitude

That happened to me last Saturday. It was quite warm (around 60) on the ground but there was some ice from about 14000 to 10 or 12. It was small though....not painful...

I think the only answer other skydivers would give you is an unmittigated "GO JUMP!"
But I can tell you if I got to get the high of jumping while chatting up a local hottie wild horses couldn't keep me away from the DZ.

GOOOOO JUMP!!!!!!!!
Layers are the key to keeping warm.
That adrenaline shyt doesn't hurt either.
Getting all fuzzy and warm just thinking about it.

Go jump, 40's is warm. It will be above 0 at altitude. Just wear gloves and a turtleneck under your jumpsuit and sweater.
