Looks like a huge fleet of tandems trying to be like the PD factory team

If in doubt, whip it out...

Looks like a bunch of military accuracy guys to me with their container flaps showing.

Got anything better to do than bitch about something at Spaceland?

Blue skies,

Jim, was that directed at me? I was not bitching, just pointing out an amusing mistake. I assume you noticed that those are tandems on the graphic. Besides, I'm waaaay past bitching about any DZ.

If you've lost your sense of humor I'll loan you mine.

What? Thats the new 40 foot long drogue bridle.

If you made a straight line line of the bridle it could make it to the top of the canopy in the graphic.

Jim,

From every account I've heard, Spaceland did an outstanding job with Collegiate. Now I'm excited for nationals in just 10 more months.

With that said, I'm guessing that the graphic artist that put the design together is a whuffo, otherwise, why would tandem pairs be picked for an event that really doesn't involve tandems. It is humorous, especially when shown against the backdrop of a highly successful collegiate meet.

Jim, I've noticed if there's any type of controversy anywhere, you'll find Chuck with his 2 cents worth! Collegiates was a class act, and I'm glad I was there to witness it first hand!


And that's my 2 cents worth!

I don't think anyone noticed. Most all liked the T-shirt only problem I found was they ran out of them before I could buy one

Damn....missed out on adding to my expensive wardrobe!

Would that be like those upside down dollar bills printed by the mint that turned out to be worth mucho mas $$$'s?

What's it worth?

That explains it. The artist had tandem on the brain.

And of course an error on a t-shirt is quite a controversy. I guess you didn't know that Jim and I have been friends since he learned to skydive.

Now go take your meds.

Nice. That looks like a lot of tandems under canopy to me. Whuffo graphic designer. They must have found some tandem clip art or something online to use for this shirt. Funny stuff. Oh well. It is skydiving and parachute related regardless.
