billvon 2,463 #1 November 19, 2003 So far we have: me Kathy Skeie JP Dominic Anyone else? It will be my last jumps on my S3 before I send it back to Birdman to fix the sizing. On the plus side I'll probably hit 100 BM jumps on Sunday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 2,463 #6 November 20, 2003 >Well congrats on that one! Got a suit yet? She was borrowing one of the Flyboyz, but she had to give that one back. She may end up borrowing my old Classic (which, by some miracle, fits.) I'm planning on doing BM all day. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 2,463 #10 November 24, 2003 And after all that - largest flock:2 Skeie was doing 4-way. Dominic started out doing 4-way then quit jumping altogether. JP "had to work." No sign of Fordy. So it was one jump with Rob then 5 more solos. After the third jump trying to max out the suit (min fall rate: 50) my arms were killing me. So I started flying on my back, only to realize that the muscles I needed to fly on my back were in even worse shape. And they're the muscles you need to pull. On my fifth solo I got to 4000 feet, waved off, came in to pull, got my hands around the hackey and - I had nothing left. Couldn't even move the handle. Adrenalin kicked in, and I tried again and got the PC out with (seemingly) no problem at all. After that I figured it was a good idea to switch back to RW for the rest of the day. Alas I didn't break 100 wingsuit jumps, and now I have to send the S3 back for mods (it's way too tight.) Looks like I'll hit 100 on the trusty Classic.

Fordy 0 #11 November 29, 2003 I was at perris all weekend, BUT... grounded myslef last week with a ripped shoulder muscle and didn't want to push my luck as it seemed to be easing (didn't jump till tuesday) and i had my uspa AFF eval course this week.. I saw a guy in a SF3 with Orange wings getting kitted up but he was busy and i was sulking so I carried on I was the guy in the Orange Jacket wandering aimlessly around with a book, sat in the bombshelter on the net or just eating through sheer boredom.. Having completed the AFF course after a ground prep tomorrow I will be taking to the skies on my wings for some fun.. FordyFordy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
