CrazyDave

im 16! and im planning my AFF for next summer after i did a very exciting Tandem. ive got about £500 out of the 1190 needed and then after that im going to (hopefully) get my parents to fork out some money for second hand gear. I might also sell everything with value that i own

exellant read..!

yes this is the same crazy dave...! i have being watching the news but it was never on... and i have also read the papers, it wasnt in my papers either.... i didnt know because i never heard about it in conversation.... (the wind tunnel) however. this fire thing, well i new about the fire, but since i dont know much in the way of geography in america i dont/ didnt know that perris was where the fire was! !!! - what publicity... if u mean the skydiving community then if you check my registration date..... i have infact not been signed up for the past 2-3 years. i am only 16 and have only in effect done 1 jump. i am doing more, but as was not into the sport until earlier this year did not feel it was neccisary to sign up.

on the Send email notification reply button...... i press it but dont get no reply!

that homer simpson.... he influences us all

i know what u mean... most of the stuff has been moved to several large nuclear bunkers almost 400 miles away Edit to add:- lol

whats happened out there?

i think ive seen these around before

i dont want people to leave the sport... it needs people, it needs pro's to pass on the techniques to all us noobs!

make sure all your bits are in the right places, that can hurt almost as much as falling off a rock climbing wall

happy birthday bill

well i havent heard about it before... and thought that it was a pretty big thing. im definatly gonna go there if it ever gets done!

i did get the memo...... but it would still be fun

i expect its been on here before.... but, would it be possible to H.A.L.O onto area 51 and land in with a team of dudes with guns? i just though that it would be a really cool way in because i honestly cant see any other?! does anyone know whether its been attemped before? if so what happened? cheers, (i know its stupid and hyporthetical, but it would be so fun)!

why jump a round?

we are going to get a wind tunnel in the Uk!!!!!!!! check out this off of:- http://www.hepherdixon.co.uk/site/newsroom_detail.asp?NR_ID=36&NR_Current=1 Indoor skydiving facility at Xscape puts in for planning permission in Milton Keynes - 30 June 2003 SkyVenture UK has today submitted a planning application for the UK’s first indoor skydiving facility. The application was submitted by consultants Hepher Dixon following consultation with Milton Keynes Council and other appropriate bodies. The iconic design has been produced by the World reknowned architects HOK sport who were responsible for the main stadium at the Sydney Olympic Games and a host of other well known facilities.are currently the architects for the National Stadium at Wembley and the redevelopment of Royal Ascot Racecourse. SkyVenture is a vertical wind tunnel that allows anyone to experience the thrill of freefall in a completely safe environment any day of the year in spite of the UK weather. The first SkyVenture tunnel has been operating safely in Orlando, Florida for the past 5 years and introduced thousands of people to the fun of body flying. The experience is so realistic to skydiving that there are almost no every competitive skydiving teams usesthat train without a wind tunnel to hone its performance. tunnel time. this is amazing i only just heard it... finally we will get one, this means that we can be bouncing around in the tunnel all winter! yey anyone else heard about this?
