freekflyguy 0 #10 December 29, 2005 Im sorry guys, fun police here. Am I the only one thinking that 200 jumps and a PHI is a bad mix?? BuzzIt's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leroydb 0 #11 December 29, 2005 it could be, but she already has a number of BM jumps, is coach rated and overal pretty heads up. an old soul you can sayLeroy ..I knew I was an unwanted baby when I saw my bath toys were a toaster and a radio...

LouDiamond 1 #12 December 29, 2005 She has more jumps than what she has listed, I trained her myself.She's rock solid in the PHI to boot."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkM 0 #13 December 29, 2005 I started in on my PHI with around 260 jumps after 10 jumps in a GTI. It really wasn't any harder to fly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueSBDeath 2 #14 December 29, 2005 Dude....I know what you mean...........I thought long and hard about getting her the suit. She now has over 250 jumps, not that many I know, but she has done more than I thought she would be able to do at this stage. If not for all the locals that coach her and tell me how well she has been doing, I would not believe it myself. I take full responsibility (she is only 17). Have fun kiddo!!

No you're not the only one freeflyguy. It's hardly uncommon for the sugar daddies out there to push their little girls too far too fast. These friendly santa claus 'you can do that ' type guys mustn't get to see what happens in their turbulent wake. I wonder if a real nice fast parachute has gone along with the fireboid. hope there'e no tears with this one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

leroydb 0 #18 January 2, 2006 The father is very capable skydiver, and along with other BMI's... nvr mind, but but I started BM with 200 jumps in 2 years... There are many that do.

leroydb 0 #20 January 2, 2006 you have the choice of jumping with or with out those you trust or dont trust. She is a very heads up and safe jumper. This is suppoed to be a happy post about her getting a wingsuit for xmas. She isnt a saftey issue, if you have issues with other WS flyers take it up with them, not the poster in questionLeroy ..I knew I was an unwanted baby when I saw my bath toys were a toaster and a radio...

LouDiamond 1 #21 January 3, 2006 QuoteDodging inexperienced (often female) wingsuiters and their highly protective in-tow blokes has become a large part of my perceived risk analysis. That very well may be your experience. It does not however mean that it is indeed the same in this case. I will tell you that you are way out of line in this instance. Besides having more jumps than she has listed and being a coach, she is a very heads up jumper and a good canopy pilot. I know her father, who happens to be a former Golden Knight, is well aware of his daughters skills and abilities. Had he thought that she was not ready I know he wouldn't of allowed her to take the first flight course and I as a BMCI, wouldn't have taught her if I thought she was not ready. Autumn is a super current jumper and more in tune to the finer safety issues of skydiving than most those double her age. I am positive it has helped that she has jumped with some of the best skydivers out there since she was a student. That's one of the benefits of jumping at Raeford that most don't get at other DZs. I highly doubt you would have to dodge this girl as you would probably be trying to catch her.
