Oregon Swoop Vids

[ManBird 0]

Here's a little video from May Day weekend in Oregon. It was shot at Eugene Skydivers in Creswell and Skydive Oregon in Molalla. Some fun stuff, some awesome, some normal stuff, some lame stuff -- no boogie or broken records -- just some buds having fun with our parachutes... and a tad bit of carnage. Enjoy.

In case you missed these, here's a short one from one weekend earlier, and a video from last year's PST's (downwind) accuracy round:

The somersault through the risers after swooping a pond looked painful... nice slowmo though! Was the guy OK?

Yes he was okay, think he tore some muscles or ligments but didn't break anything. Was out of service for a couple weeks though.

Thanks. Had fun hanging with you. Canadian money is cheap. I checked what withdrawal actually was in US dollars. I made out like a bandit on that slot. From now on, I'm buying I'm buying all my international plane tickets at the airport three hours before departure. Er, maybe not.

Gotta love the 1.37 exchange... It was a good weekend but hell, that "Blue" suit was kinda strange... Besides that I dont think I will get my hearing back any time soon

It's come back to haunt and deafen you! I've got some big plans for this suit. I might even jump it. I'll be wearing extra ear plugs. I advise anyone on the ground to do the same.
