You can't break 3 minutes from 15k? Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

Maybe, just maybe, I could break 4 minutes from 21k!"That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skwrl 56 #15 November 18, 2008 We did a high alti wingsuit jump onto the beach last year. We took the plane out about 2 miles off shore, flew with the plane another mile, and then turned around and flew back to the beach. Plenty of time, even given that I pull at 4k. We were (of course) led by Purple Mike... We made it back easily - had time to take docks. In retrospect, it wasn't the smartest thing I've ever done (imagine losing a bootie...), but it made good video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ytlbusHnkc I can't wait for this year's fun.Skwrl Productions - Wingsuit Photography Northeast Bird School - Chief Logistics Guy and Video Dork Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wright 0 #20 December 20, 2008 Attention RW players: We really want to break the existing RW PR record this year at the boogie. So, we are looking to get people signed up early on in order to do it on Thursday or Friday of the boogie. The weekend is too busy to do formation loads so we need everyone who is qualified to do 30 ways to give me a shout via email that your interested in comitting to at least 4 attemps. If I don't know you let me your qualifications. Blue Skies Guy Wright, organizer [email protected] 845 532 5867 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FreeFlyer2100 0 #21 December 27, 2008 Does anyone know if you get a hotel in San Juan is there transportation to the DZ? For people bringing non-jumpers and staying in the city (San Juan) should you get a rental car to back and forth to the DZ or is there a shuttle? I heard about beach jumps, are you being dropped over San Juan or over Arecibo? Can you tell that the non-jumper is a woman and she has lots of questions? Thanks for help and can't wait to do some freeflying jumps with everyone!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
