LyraM45 0 #51 December 30, 2010 For the first time ever I will have weekends off like a normal person, so for 2011: JUMP MY IMAGINARY BALLS OFF!!!!!! And finally get on my head in the tunnel so I can start going on HD jumps safely. Been waiting years to be able to be a weekend warrior.... can't wait for 2011!!!!!!! Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NWFlyer 2 #54 December 30, 2010 Quote 2. break 4 minutes in a wingsuit. What does it say about me that I read that as "break 4 midgets in a wingsuit"? No, wait, don't answer that.

Goody_23 0 #60 January 2, 2011 QuoteSkydiving Goals for 2011? Other than the obvious: have fun, jump lots, avoid injury & death... What are your skydiving goals for 2011? Mine: Senior Rigger rating PRO rating (My friends will say... "Weren't those your goals for LAST year?" Yes, but pursuing an AFFI rating, making ~90 AFFI jumps, and a season-ending injury got in the way. I am healed up and ready to GO FOR IT!) C2 AFF Demo rating LOTS OF TANDEMS Enjoy every minuteSKYDIVING = HAPPY Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rhys 0 #62 January 2, 2011 Quoterenew my Vector TI rating 7. earn a Sigma TI rating 8. find a new DZ to work at If you came to a NZ DZ you could do all that in one hit. A vector rating is a sigma rating and they never expire...

Deyan 31 #63 January 2, 2011 1. Finish the design of my own H&C system. 2. Find a way of legally jumping it. 3. Stay away from the incident statistic.

I haven't jumped a Vector Tandem since 1992, so a bit of refresher training is in order. I have already discussed that refresher training with the local Vector/Sigma Examiner.
