+1 for Chicks Rock at Skydive Elsinore!!

AND YOUR THE ONE THAT BOOKED IT!!!

its auctually called above the rest http://abovetheresthotairballooning.com/index.htm

i just got my first new rig and i gotta say that everybody at infinity and liquid sky are awesome. There customer service is absolutely top notch!! i cant say enough good things about them and there products!!

Above the Rest Balloon company just requires a B license and you own gear

SOCAL!!!

Im in and so is one of my buddies

Count me in!! im doing one on Aug 4th out of perris as well. Which company r u planning on using?

My rig is getting delivered today i cant wait. It feels like christmas!! I will post more pics once its fully assembled

I got a pilot for my presecond canopy and I love it!!!

I do the same with my G3 and dont experience fogging either. if i close it too early before exit it will fog. but clears up as soon as i get outside the plane.

true. whats max delay on it like 6-8 sec

hahaha! Honestly i wouldnt be suprised either. Ill let you know! wont it take longer than 12 seconds to fall 1500 ft since its a sub terminal exit. someone told me the first 1000 ft takes 15 second from sub terimal.

A little over 1,400 feet. Sparky Awesome! So if the balloon goes to 5000 i will be at terminal by 3500. Which is where i usually dump at. Thanks for the good info. This might be the jump ive been most stoked about! I cant wait. It looks like there is gonna be 4 jumpers on the load and 6 Wuffos. I will NOT be wearing a camera. Just gonna have the woman film from in the balloon.

How many feet does it take to reach terminal from a subterminal exit?

Here she is!

im down for a balloon jump to a swoop and chug. I live in the LA area.

This is the kind of info im looking for!! Thanks!! AAD will be on.

I by no means consider myself a wonder kid in my own mind or anyone elses. and i definetly dont have mad skills at all! i gotta lot to learn. And i am constantly tryin to learn more. Cause at my stage the only think i know for sure is that i really dont know much. If u auctually knew me u would know that. Sooo what r the chances we can get back on topic. Id really like to learn more about balloon jumps.

Yeah, of course you're way better than the rest of the jumpers for whom a 200 jump minimum is recommended... The key word is recommended. not required. and by no means am i way better than the rest of the jumpers. But atleast i seek advice from my instructors before trying ANYTHING new!

Good catch on that one. Kinda hard to hide. lol. If it makes a differance i didnt start wearing it till i got my B. and i got the blessing from my instructor who was on that jump with me and my DZO. lol

thats what i was hopin for rope swing to gainer lol

Yes my profile is correct, i currently have 55 jumps, but i should be around 70 when i do the auctual jump. There r about 5 of us jumpin, the rest of the ballon will be non jumpers. Most of us jumping have under 100 jumps so im not too interested in doin any more than a solo on this jump. One new variable is enough. Just fallin off backwards does sound fun but it will be a solo for me.

im sure the idea is to drop us over the DZ. But we will see. I well aware of the possibility of a off landing when doin balloon jumps.

Im Doin my "presecond" Balloon jump on August 4! I couldnt be more stoked! Does anyone have any advice for me? I would also love to hear other peoples stories from there "presecond" balloon jump. I believe this balloon has a rope swing. I would love to try it. Any reasons why i shouldn't use it. Has anyone else on here used Above the Rest balloon company out of Perris? Thanks Blue skies
