sangiro 4 #101 December 31, 2004 There are people who have been using this site for a long time, who have sold gear several times over through the classifieds and have never made a post. I've also jumped with many people who have never posted to these forums but who still love the site and read it daily. Posting to the forums does not "make" you a Dropzone.com member. Registering does. That's it. There's much more to the site than just the forums. QuoteThis record will be easy enough to break. I'll just register everyone that's on JFTC. Snap out of it!

Michele 1 #103 January 1, 2005 I just read through this whole thread. I've got a single question.... Did anyone have any FUN??? 'Cause that's what it's about, in the end. Fun. With friends who you know, or who you've just met. Whatever else it is, it's about FUN. I hope you all had tons of it! Happy New Year. ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BikerBabe 0 #104 January 1, 2005 Thank you, Michele. Yes, I had a blast. I'm sure Craig and Dennis did, too. I think everyone on this thread needs to log off and go make some skydives. Happy New Year, everyone!!!Never meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do not have names or anything yet, but im sure she will post when available...She is not a "Dumb Blonde" - She is a "Light-Haired Detour Off The Information Superhighway." eeneR TF#72, FB#4130, Incauto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjosparky 3 #106 January 1, 2005 You people have got to be kidding me. Over 100 posts on what are and what are not the rules for a DZ.com record. Give me a break. Go jump with as many people as you feel comfortable with, in any position you want and as many time as you feel ike. Say hi to old friends and meet new ones. Laugh, cry, have a beer and enjoy your time together. Why do you think boogies were first started. TO HAVE FUN TOGETHER!

Galen 0 #107 January 1, 2005 Yup, looks like they got it on the first try. Left the DZ before they did their video debrief. I'm sure Oren or someone who was on the load will give more details. Congratulations guys. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stacy 0 #108 January 1, 2005 sweet looking dive from the ground. I backed off the dive due to tummy troubles. Beat of luck to them crushing it again! I believe this may be the premier attempt at a multi-plane record.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Michele 1 #109 January 1, 2005 QuoteYes, I had a blast. Hey, Andi girl! Glad you had a good time! QuoteI think everyone on this thread needs to log off and go make some skydives. I got two in as a Christmas Eve gift in Oregon, but alas, I'm very very ill right now, so I can't jump for a bit. The flu', don'tcha know. But soon.... Happy New Year, everyone.

There will be more boogies, more friends, more laughter. The sky isn't going anywhere. Glad to hear some people had fun. I had fun too! I was really scared because they put me in the front of the airplane by the pilot and I'm no "glory slot" swooper, with only Dennis behind me. And then as I was coming in to take my grip, I saw BikerBabe down there directing traffic. Apparently someone flew into the wrong slot and Andi put him right. I loved seeing the formation fly nice and smooth. I would like to say that I don't post much, sometimes I wonder if I would qualify for the "25 posts in 3 months" because I really only read a few of the forums and then log off. In the dirt dive it was asked whether or not the formation needed to complete and it was decided that it did, nobody could be low or out. And I myself think that Airspeed should be honorary everything in skydiving, since they contribute more than most to the spirit of skydiving good vibes. I'm home now, but while I was in Eloy, I heard about this thread, so I do want to contribute my two cents, along with Mouth: it was a blast, it was fun, and whether or not it was a record, it counted for being a very special and outstanding jump with my fellow DZ.commers!! Thanks again, Sangiro, for making this site my favorite place to spend my free time when I'm not skydiving! *** DJan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites BikerBabe 0 #115 January 2, 2005 Well said, DJan!
