kkeenan 13 #1 September 3, 2005 Dear CRWDogs, Today was an "off" day in all of my events, and that was a blessing. 9 jumps yesterday was a lot. (I think it was the 9 pack jobs that was worse). Anyway, today was my day to bask in the resort-like ambience of Perris. Aside from it being in an area most closely compared to the desert planet in "Dune", it is one cool facility. It's a real skydiving resort. The weather is perfect, the pool is great, the skydiving is ass-kicking, and every major dude / dudette in the skydiving world is hanging around. We just came back from the Tunnel, where we watched the "Black Knights", the 4-way team who will be flying the 4-way RW competition on their backs. They're really good, and watching them was a hoot. 2-way CRW was the only CF thing going today (of course, that included a precision 2-way landing / dance routine performed by the U. S .Team.) There were about 10 teams, with all of them improving points with each round. I don'y remember the final standings, but then again, this was my day off. The vidiots were the stars of today, though. Some of them were shooting for two teams, and made about 10 jumps. Thet's enough for anyone, but when you throw in bad spots and the survival school-type landscape of this place, it makes for a hell of a challenge. Well, it's late, and my stuff cranks up again tomorrow. You know, this competition flying makes you work so much that you feel like you improve by light years by the time the comp. is over. That's when you think, "Damn, think how good I would have been it I'd actually practiced". Peace & Love from Perris, Kevin3_____________________________________ Dude, you are so awesome...
