BillyVance 34 #2 April 12, 2007 Quote how many do we have so far???...... 1. Fred Goebel 2. Billy Vance 3. John Woo 4. Alan Thompson Not many of us post on here. I don't think I'm going to be able to attend this one. I am not even in the planning loop with John and Fred. They are doing everything themselves. I have too much to do at home these days. I am gonna miss you guys this time though.

So next year, I don't think the dates have been announced or confirmed yet. I've been told several possibilities ranging from Labor Day weekend to the last weekend in October.

BillyVance 34 #16 May 28, 2007 Quote Seem there will not have lot of deaf this year. They're seriously missing my ability to recruit and communicate with the group... But seriously, I just don't have the time to be involved, nor do I have the currency in recent jumps (only 3 jumps made this year)... But that's not the only reason. Others can't attend for personal reasons. I suspect some of the European skydivers felt like the next DWR would be in Europe. Even I said it at the last DWR. Others are too busy in their lives or have events going on that conflict with DWR. Mike Sweet's having a wedding this fall around that time, and Cat is participating in a friend's wedding. Others in the past have not jumped lately. You should still try to go anyway. Every DWR has had at least a couple of deaf skydivers that had little experience and did not jump on the records, but still appreciated being around a lot of deaf skydivers. Many of them ended up being a record holder at the next event. Next time though, my little girl will be big enough that I can get out and jump a bit more, that is, unless we have another kid.

FlyinDawg 0 #17 May 28, 2007 True, but I still won't make it this year tho. Flyin' Dawg or SkyDog "To understand is to forgive, even oneself." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goesky 0 #18 May 29, 2007 Maybe not many this year cuz of 2 hurts , 2 wedding, 3 brits not coming till we show up there. 3 new divers will be here. 2 new from other country. We will have about 12 and plus not hear from others. I belive there will be a lot of Tandems jumps cuz of my annoucments in the deaf commumity. I belive there will be more deaf intrest in that sport in the future. We will have the discount jump's ticket for us and the hearing. Hope it will help us out cuz of the fuels..... We not Bull cuz they wear the ear's plugs ! Fred Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mx757 4 #21 May 29, 2007 I plan to be there.. but I won't be jumping...as for DWR in Europe.. nice idea but it would help if we all flew same airline and instead of everyone buying a ticket for them self we do a group buy say? 10 or 15 people. you can get a cheaper rate that way...

goesky 0 #22 May 29, 2007 Huh! Nope I dint get your email and some have tried to email me. Dunno ..Not shown on my spam block. We will update you and others profile on our website. I got about 10 who want to learn skydive. I belive the deaf community help us a lot cuz the hearing magzines or papers not help much cuz they are not membership. I will publish more in Deaf networks, Deaf newspapers, and others. You can spread the words in your diffrent groups. About 15,000 deaf have look up our website deafskydivers.org Silent Freefall, Fred Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
