  11. Hey Eric:
    The swoop meets are being run at the dropzones that want to and can logistically host them.

    The 4 way rounds will take priority over the swooping but Greg Windmiller and Rob the Raeford rigger are coordinating the swooping side of each event.

    Contact the CaSL league director for more details
    CaSL Director: [email protected]

    or talk to Dan (He is assisting Randy)
    [email protected]

    Hope that helps.
    See you soon!

    Ps: Greg.. if you wanted to get all the info, you should have been at the meeting!

  14. Mariann:

    I remember how much shit you gave me for not taking it easy at JFTC and doing my other leg in by throwing my crutches down and dancing so hard with you on one leg.

    I remember hanging out with you and dancing at Nationals the year before... the four of us giving it all by the pool....

    Always dancing, always smiling, never failing, never tiring. Always beautiful.

    You truly are an inspiration darling girl, your attitide when things were rough and your amazing smile (especially the towards the end at JFTC when sleep had hardly been the biggest priority) and I know that the love you had for your friends is shining through every cloud that hangs over us now that you arent here to walk, talk and cause trouble among us.

    If God is the dj, you must be telling him to kick it up a notch.

    with love, laughter and light
    Portia

  17. Yeah, and if we are going there then do I need to remind you what the female (praying) mantis does to the male??? Or perhaps THAT was what your memo was referring to? (hehe)

    Ok, back to the the thread...

    Go Teams !!!

  18. I actually think it helps if both parties are in the same boat (so to speak) it really helps you understand what you DONT want to repeat and makes you appreciate the value of what you have...

    We can talk all about it over a beer or pm Kev...:)
    ps. Give C a big hug for me B|

  19. And helping you guys is becoming one of the highlights of this jumping year :)

  20. Wooohoooo! Go you....

    Sounds like its all coming together (you lucky bugger!) I know that we were only doing the meets this year, but we havent even had much luck with that so far[:/]

    We havent had one full meet together this year and its not looking likely until perhaps September when all four of us will be in one place at the same time:$

    We do have tons of fun when we get together though and as we arent training, that should be the focus of it all.. (right?;))

    My apologies

    (Though....I think Katee did a great job of showing what f*** me eyes might be all about! Beautiful!)



    hahahahha! Val I think the eyes that you posted are the ones associated with the saying that us Brits use sometimes....

    to indicate alarm or firght..

    as in... Oh my god, look at that big bear!
    well f**k me!! (said in alarmed of frightened voice) B|

    ok.. Carry on......

    edited to add: Well that will teach me to be smart.. if you are gonna be smart, you'd better be fast. You beat me to the sarcastic punchline Val :D

    the person posting that is ditta from the norgie team Arcteryx. i think if anyone knows what a hard time smaller females can have in the open class, it'd be her. :P



    No kidding, and boy (sorry, GIRL) can she skydive!

    To dispute an earlier post though, I think that if you asked any of the women on the top teams they would say that they wanted to be regarded as a competitive, skilled athlete (period) Not *pretty good for a girl* Women in this sport are faced with a certain set of challenges competing with and against men, but then so are men.

    Overcoming challenges to level the field is what competition is about isnt it? It shouldnt be determined by your gender in a sport that is as technical and sophisticated as this...

    just my 0.2 pence ;)

    You have to cheat a little bit... the page or the plugin setup is messed up. Just view the page source and fix the URL... to this:

    Matt you are such a Brainiac ;)

    I agree with Rehmwa, I dont think it matters which of the two helmets (Z1 or Oxygen) you are wearing when you get your head bashed by your teammies knee/elbow/foot..etc. If there is enough force in the right place, your visor (and hopefully not too much else) is gonna get it. While I think that the visor comes off easier with an Oxygen, it does seem like Doug wont be doing a comparison anytime soon though!

    How are ya Rehm?? B|
