Anyone out there have any updated information on this boogie this year? Airplanes? Registration? Gnat removal? hehe


maybe some more news right now???

It's time for a 9week call! Can't wait for so much fun!

Wondering if there are any Ecsc-homegrow skydivers who are interested to jump to pensacola-Beach on thursday 05/27. Just before this rainbow-happening will begin. Jump, land on the beach and hang around at bamboo willie's or s.e.?!


If I can get off work, Im in !!! =) Can't wait to hang !!!

Don't think that I could make the jump... but the beach is on my way home... maybe I could stop by and hang out some!

Dana - let me know if you are going!

I am REALLY looking forward to that weekend!!! Should be some really good times! See you all on the beach! B|[/repl

I will give ya a ring a ling ! I cant wait BLUE SKIES !!!!

Reminder! Reminder! Reminder!

Water gear / Flotation Devices

If you're planning on jumping the beach, you WILL need it

Plan ahead.
1. Buy your own, or
2. Call Becky - first come, first served on a limited offer basis, or
3. Don't jump the beach

Your choice.

Here's what I have. You can get them from Stearns, Bass Pro Shops, Kodiak Outback and other places. I have a navy blue belly pouch. BPS shows a camo one...I don't quite get it, but they do make camo PFDs...I guess so the sharks can't see you:

Here's Stearns:

Here's Bass Pro Shops:

Here's one from Kodiak Outback:

Hope that helps....

So, due to previous commitments I will not be able to attend Memorial day weekend at Emerald Coast this year. :(:(:(

BUT!!!! My dad just bought a condo on the beach in Orange Beach Alabama, less than 4 miles from the FloraBama bar! He says it's within walking distance, I'm not so sure, but it's close enough for me! This could come in very handy for the boogie next year, or even sooner. ;):)

Bah, I hardly ever jump at SDA anymore. I'm more of a dropzone whore/Farmie these days :P

Thanks for the links to floatation gear. Browsing now....

Hey Andy, do you use two PFD's? One for the rig and one for yourself? Or just the one for yourself?

You wear the belt around your waist. In event of a water landing, you take the belt off and hook it to your rig so it floats and you swim.

I guess if you had two, you could hook it to your main if you had a mal and had to chop it.

:P

I'd be interested to see if anybody would have the presence of mind to pop the co2 cartridge before cutting away the main. :P

I don't think he would charge family. Friends is a whole other issue. Maybe some kind of discount, provided the place is left in the same state as when you entered it! ;)

My brother used to own a condo on Maui. My wife and I stayed in it for a week, free for our honeymoon. He even gave us free first class tickets from AL to Maui. We still spent over a grand over there. ;)

I'm a firm believer in saving the youngsters first.
The rig may be older than I am. Ergo....

Hey peeps. I'm looking for someone to share a condo or hotel with. I'll take the couch in a condo if someone has such available.
I'd be there friday, sat, and sunday nights.



I should mention that I intend to pay my share of the bill, aka split the cost of the room/condo with whomever has room.

I am gonna look for deals though with the impending oil slick causing havoc down there from what I've read.
