jdobleman 0 #1 April 24, 2013 I met Nancy Gruttman-Tyler at the SOS banquet in Elsinore and she is maintaining the WSCR awards. Lots of info at www.WSCR.org[url] Been waiting over 20 years for another shot at this award. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.

fastphil 0 #2 April 24, 2013 I found getting my WSCR and NWSCR took all the maneuvering skill I could muster, and then there were the actual skydives also... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillyVance 34 #3 April 25, 2013 I'm trying to recall the rules... Is it true that guys can earn the award if they dock 9th or later on an all-women 8 way star?"Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people." - SIX TIME National Champion coach Nick Saban Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's the way I remember it, which makes it harder for a guy because he must be able to count to eight. I'm in the slot for ninth on this one while some girls (Wendy?) are still coming in...

wmw999 2,291 #5 April 25, 2013 Yup, that's me making my way in. There's a reason your nickname was Fast Phil Wendy P. 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.

fastphil 0 #6 April 25, 2013 Here’s another pic, this one makes me think “poor cameraman”. I think I waited for everyone else before I broke in. In case I didn’t say it then, thanks Wendy (and girls) for letting me lurk. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,291 #7 April 25, 2013 He was using a strobe -- I remember the warning to look forward, and not up, especially if we could see him lurking in our foreground. So of course, there's Debbie(?), looking up , and a couple of us checking our altimeters. Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it.

NWFlyer 2 #9 April 28, 2013 Mad John - thanks for inspiring us to get the first WSCR at Bay Area Skydiving (Byron) today! It was a whole lot of fun, just wish we could have gotten you yours today.

NWFlyer 2 #13 May 28, 2013 monkycndo I know number 1314 was just issued for a jump at Byron. Yep, our 8-way earned 1312 through 1319 on April 27. There aren't any more new ones listed on the site since then. I'm planning to organize some more in Northern California at various boogies this summer.

NWFlyer 2 #14 July 23, 2013 Hey, Mad John.... just want to say again how cool it was to meet Sheila (WSCR 3) and Betty (WSCR ?? but also a low number) on Saturday! Thanks for bringing them out - it was an honor to meet them and get their signatures on #1100 (which, fittingly, was an 8-way!).
