popsjumper 2 #51 July 6, 2006 Dammit. I'm getting in on this this year come hell or high water. The first one of you ladies who makes a comment about the ugly chick with glasses, mustache and the French Braid will get...will get...well, yelled at! My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus. Falcon5232, SCS8170, SCSA353, POPS9398, DS239 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boinky 0 #53 July 6, 2006 To achieve a "SCR," the formation must exit without ANY grips. One person falls and sort of sets the base (the maggot). The others come to the them. Since it's easier to just sit there and wait...they put the low timer in the base spot...and use THEIR talent to make the SCR happen. I was the maggot of my "SCR" and DAMNED proud of it, too! Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts? (RIP Buzz) Yep, you're a postwhore-billyvance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jumpergirl 0 #54 July 6, 2006 QuoteWhat's the "maggot"? The maggot is the person who is trying to get their SCR. The maggots get to participate in the SCR ceremony as long as their SCR was successful. Personally, I don't care much for that word. I believe the original SCR ceromony called them "neophytes." I think that's much better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Mockingbird 0 #55 July 6, 2006 Well, whatever you want to call it, that's what I'm best at right now. My only 5-way was done like that-- I got to be the one in the center. But I want to get better so I don't have to be in the center; so maybe some of y'all could help me with that on Thursday????

As the only female on the load, it seems a little wrong to say I laid there . That was in 1976. I think it's a pretty longstanding tradition. You have to be able to fly stable and not freak out. The SCS is to show that you can actually fly well enough to catch the rest of the folks. Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.
