RastaRicanAir 0 #7 March 8, 2005 SH*T!! I too had important stuff to do this weekend. I was going to drop off my rig in Albany for my 197 day Reserve re-pack and Cypres install, then go to Tallahassee and download some music for us to groove to at Dublin. Now I have to go all the way to Tallahassee then back to the Farm. Alright, I'll come on 2 conditions: 1) That Hans lets me (the Clark Kent of skydiving) write an article for the Mag. (payment to be discussed at Manifest of course) and 2) That Uncle/Papa does his whole gear maintenance seminar the same way he did last year. ...with his FLY down. P.S. Did anyone see the Safety Day ad on the back of Parachutist this month? The chick in the ad's not wearing a f*ckin' helmet.OrFunV/LocoBoca Rodriguez/Sonic Grieco/Muff Brother #4411 -"and ladies....messin with Robbie is venturing into territory you cant even imagine!-cuz Robbie is Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skinnyshrek 0 #8 March 8, 2005 no i think your known as the most belligerent skydiver. Clark kent..i guess he was a belligerent bastard wasn't he. Always showing off saving people.....ok i'll give you that. Dave "Yogi" has volunteered to give some canopy/swoop coaching for the people wishing to get into swooping. Some of you fast downsizing people may want to take him up on that!!http://www.skydivethefarm.com do you realize that when you critisize people you dont know over the internet, you become part of a growing society of twats?

marks 0 #10 March 8, 2005 there will be a safety meeting promptly at 4:20 friday afternoon. ok seroisly, im thinking of teaching the spotting class on friday night. is that good for most?. also i know from watching most of you jump at the farm that almost EVERYONE, INCLUDING HANS. needs to attend this class. it will show you an entirely different way at looking at spoting, and how to figure out where you need to be.. ohh and p.s. on this class. if you cant be an adult in the class then dont even bother coming. also for all you up and coming freeflyers.; well i will be giving free, thats right FREE, headown coaching. 1 on 1. i know there is a lot of you that are solid in a sit but want to fly on your head. so come take advatage. all you have to pay is YOUR slot! i will even take care of my own pack job. so you just pay a lift ticket for yourself. so get on it FRANK. blain i know you and bob asked about it before also. and of course mike... even though he THINKS he's good enough to coach others. and i know there is pleanty more of you. and if i find that some of you are more solid than i though and can hold your own. i will bring somone else who is VERY good at freeflying into the mix and we can do 3 way coaching. see ya guys this weekend... hopefully the weather is good... ohh and p.s. im not working at all this weekend. both days will be for you to get FREE coaching. later. Mark ohh also. ive got my own two way in air communication system that i put together myself we can possibly try out also.. and it didnt cost 1500$ jeese... what a rip off!

marks 0 #12 March 8, 2005 to get headown coaching you have to be able to fly on your head... lol... if you backtracking or stuff like that. we can work all that stuff out... and if i have time i can work with some of you who know how to sit but have NO idea how to fly on your head. and we could do a couple jumps with that also. i can hold you in a headdown position, but you have to know how to sitfly if you want me to do this... i dont want to die!..

skinnyshrek 0 #25 March 8, 2005 Most probably will be in the Afternoon. I'm thinking water training should be at night. Hey if you can get out of a canopy in freezing water at night, then you will be a much safer jumper..lol With all the Aff graduates there canopy accuracy and awareness will be a priority. I'll be videoing landings so we can debrief and hopefully help out some of these non flarers..Also, if anyone wants to bring firewood for the bonfire saturday night bring it.http://www.skydivethefarm.com do you realize that when you critisize people you dont know over the internet, you become part of a growing society of twats?
