spinmaster 0 #26 January 24, 2002 Most in the air: 8 out and built to 5. I wasn’t one of the five. However, the coolest sight was a 6 way. I was fun jumping and went out first. The 6-way went last. Pulled a little high to watch the group split and open. They slit just above me about 200yds away and they were all starting to open as they went by. It was sun set and they were back lit so they were all black shapes. It was to cool. Most Pairs: Metallica concert...oh, they were everywhere! Most Beers: 1 case...lost count, then conscience.Dan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aviatrr 0 #29 January 24, 2002 Quote What is the largest number of people you've seen during a skydive? It didn't have to be successful just the most people you've seen in the air at one time. In freefall, 45.....it built to 45 about 1000ft before break altitude..Under canopy, 18(kite)..Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sebazz1 2 #30 January 24, 2002 I saw a 40 way from the ground one time. 40 f'n canopies cruisin through the air at sunset, sooo beautiful. The biggest way I was ever on was a 30 way otter formation load. Roger Nelson organized it. I did tag my slot as I blew by it. Flaring isn't only for canopies...............Sebazz......Boy am I thirsty for some air and some brew......... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JumpHog 0 #32 January 24, 2002 The biggest formation I've been in was a 60-way. The largest formations I've watched from the ground were the 300-way attempts a couple of years ago in Chicago. Although it didn't complete, it was definately a sight to see. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyhi 24 #34 January 25, 2002 Did a 2-point 40-way last Saturday at Deland. Was a floater on the trail plane (Otter) and floated/dove after the chunked 8-way base. Final point was concentric circles with the outer one breaking at 5000' and the inner one at 4500. Hard to believe how far some people can track in 500'.

However, all of that goes right out the window once you reach a certain point in quantities of either, lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stacy 0 #41 January 25, 2002 41. it was a 41 way with video from 7K @ CSS. landing was scary, no wind and with the confusion of getting out low landign patterns were not particularly discussed....Stacyhttp://users.snip.net/~stacy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 2,396 #42 January 25, 2002 120, I believe, from 2 years ago at the Perris 120 ways. We only made 3 jumps due to weather. The coolest sight was not seeing 120 other people in freefall, but seeing six other airplanes flying in formation off to our right (we were far left trail.) After they'd scrub a jump run, I'd hop in the copilot seat and watch the other six planes hover in formation next to us. It was really cool.-bill von Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #50 January 25, 2002 I mean, Henry, a guy @ SDHouston took my SCR attempt and turned it into a 10-way, then we turned 3 points. I had like 40 jumps at that point. If he can do that with me, then he can do just about anything. Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.-General George Patton- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
