AdD 1 #51 May 10, 2004 This is my first weekend living on a dz so I celebrated today with five jumps, and this morning I had six total so it wasn't bad for me. Some sketchy deployments though, moving from a c-182 to a 206 where you just jump out the door sideways is friggin hard. My back hurts.Life is ez On the dz Every jumper's dream 3 rigs and an airstream Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What does your opening have to do with the type of aircraft you jumped out of. A hard or sketchy opening is hard or sketchy whether from a 182, a 206 or a CASA. Anyways, 11 for me - no special reason other than it was an absolutely gorgeous day much later than we normally would have them (it was an Indian Summer) in late November or early December in CrossKeys several years ago. Packed for myself and it was a pretty laid back day. If you start in the am they are usually doing about 30 loads a day so 11 isn't such a rush. All of their jumpmasters do about 15 - 20 in a day work jumps and put all of us to shame. Of course, they are getting paid and pack jobs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BGill 0 #56 May 11, 2004 I did 9 on my 20th birthday this past January. Not too much to brag about, but I usually take my time and chill between jumps... and dont forget lunch, that always takes out a good chunk of time Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
karlm 0 #57 May 11, 2004 Ok, so my best number is 9 own rig, packing myself and then 8 the following day. We had 100 jumps done in 12.5 hrs by 4 jumpers (400 jumps total) 4 rigs each, packers, and one Porter. Set the new South Africa Record on that one. Better never to have met you in my dream than to wake and reach for hands that are not there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flyer2Diver 0 #58 May 11, 2004 8 for me, this past Saturday. I was jumping student rental gear, which includes packing. Had two rigs out so they could be packing while I was jumping. It was still busy enough at the school that I was waiting for packing several times._______________________________ 30005KT 10SM SKC 23/05 A3006 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
