All,

The weather is looking pretty good here for the weekend. Count on highs of 84F and lows of 60F. A front may pass through Thursday or Friday with isolated thunderstorms, but it doesn't look like it will have anything near the punch that last week's front did.

Fill out your waiver on-line at http://www.skydivecity.com/html/experienced/SkydiveCityCheck-InInformation.htm to save time. Buy plenty of jump tickets when you get here. They are refundable.

If you plan on using the packers, Kahn and the crew at Nylon City do a great job. Kahn asks that you stow your brakes when you drop your gear where you're told, and tuck a packing ticket under the reserve flap. Buy your packing tickets ahead of time .. they also are refundable.

Rob and Kathy of Morpheus will be there checking you in starting before 9AM on Friday. Check in as quickly as possible so we can get the party started.

James Boole and I will be splitting up the big way folks, while Chuck (backed up by Robert and Robi) will be leading the flocking skills group. If you think you need some help with your flocking skills, I suggest you start with that group. If you show promise, you'll quickly be promoted to the big way groups. On the other hand, if you join the big way groups and get moved to the flocking skills group, there will be less time and a lower likelyhood that you'll be able to be promoted. Fair warning.

For those of you who don't want to join the big way groups and want to play with a smaller group, Chuck, Robert and Robi will be helping you out there as well, although I'm sure they will want to be on a couple big way dives too!

In any case, your organizer will provide you with a last minute briefing.

The regular events will be in play ... a wingsuit race (without rigs) Saturday night, a great raffle and don't forget the 2nd annual Z-Flock Challenge! Watch in awe as the best of the best race for distance to win the pot! Can Jeff Nebelkopf hang on to his trophy?? We'll see Sunday morning.

WaaHoo! Let's go!!

Scott thanks for the update and the waiver link, sent it to Z-hills just a bit ago. Found an old Z-hills card from a trip there a number of years ago. No idea what it is for but it is laminated with my name and has a number a bar code.. I doubt after a number of years it will be any good but Oh Well came across it, never know what you will find when poking around in your desk..

Looking forward to the jumps and meeting lots of WS flyer's I have not met yet! I get in thurs night and will be at the DZ ready to go Friday morning! B| Keep that good weather ordered and I hope the front goes through on Wed night so not to disturb jumping for the early people on Thursday.

It's Tuesday morning and there are at least seven flockers walking around. The weather is beautiful; come on out.

Chuck




You are making me not like you so much right now, as I sit behind my desk listening to people whine about other people, their cube being too small, and that they should be paid double what they are worth.

Got to work on that independently wealthy thing.

See ya Friday bright early.

So my nephew shows up yesterday afternoon right at last load. His reserve was out of date. It should be mentioned that this is the second boogie in a row that he has showed up to with the same problem. Lots of jumping through hoops got him un-fucked by a local rigger first thing this morning. Note to others (who are not related to me): the loft here is going to ream your ass very, very badly if they have to "rush" your packjob. Do yourselves a favor and make sure your gear is in date before you get here. The loft is booked solid right now.

Chuck

PS: Today is Wednesday, it's 0930, the skies are clearing, it's already 80 degrees outside, and we have six birds about to get on load one.

I'm hearing the rules are going to be changed - it won't be the same race. IMO... last year's "Distance Challenge" morphed into this year's "Pussy Challenge". :P

Well, if the rules get changed anything like I've heard, we're not going to get a chance at Jeff's "Distance Challenge" title (this year) as we'll be in a totally different race. :|

Yee haa... see you birds tomorrow!! :)
Mike

Ok my ride arrangements are failing dismally here. I have no pickup yet. If there are any birds arriving at, around or just after 11:40 am-ish Thursday in Tampa and don't mind a stray bird hitching a ride, drop me a PM with a phone#. I'll happily throw down for gas and then some just for your trouble. Worst case I'll just call Phantom but I hate to drag somebody all the way out there just to go back. Waste of gas and time.
