Tech was the one.....I wasnt there that day.We did have a first jumper,who had his apex catch on the tail wheel...and they had to land with him in tow....he walked away with a broke finger and road rash!

cvfd1399 0 #20 May 20, 2004 Covington is only a skip away from hammond. Is there still a DZ there? I know they still have a website for something in that are. All I know of is gold coast and NOSDC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frynsky 0 #21 May 31, 2006 Man, what a bunch of old coonass skydivers. We had a guy from La Tech named Marcus ... who went in under two canopies into the mud at Covington and lived, he was skydiving when I started. And, at the Mardi Gras boogie in either '77 or -78 a guy went in and did not live. He had his reserve open real high, maybe 6 or 7 grand and everyone was screaming for him to dump his reserve, which he had already done. He impacted in plain view across the runway. Those were the days!!! Electric Koolaid, anyone? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frynsky 0 #22 May 31, 2006 AND, I remember a demo, when you, jaymundo jumped a double keeled paradactyl. You did NOT like it. I swear, you could see your eyes from a grand, they were that big. I think you made two turns the entire time and we gave you endless shit about it. BS, BD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sfullerman 0 #24 June 1, 2006 You fellas ever jump with Bubba Traxlor (Imperor of the Universe) or Jim Jones while in Covington? 1982 Mardi Gras Boogie, my brother and I jumped the only two rounds (mains) on the dz....figured we'd catch a lot of crap about it.... but people looked at the belly warts, smiled, and started inviting us on loads. Well, you know...some 4 maybe 5 ways........which with my 25 jumps at the time, anything over a two way seemed like a "mega blot" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaymundo 0 #25 June 1, 2006 Oh Yea....Bubba and the rev were padnas of mine.I train retrievers for a living,and Bubba had one trained and worked with me quite a bit.Really nice feller.Jones is building homes and just built him a nice one .Both are doing very well. I remember we did a jump demo into a bar on the river,and getting into a gang fight.....Bubba yelled that his brother was in Nam...as he broke the dudes arm!!!I was laughing at that while getting my ass kicked Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
