Skydivers will talk with each other, so word of mouth is a big thing. Sponsor a handful of well known and people who travel to events, boogies, big ways... Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug. Pelt Head #3

Dust devils are sketchy...
skydivingchad replied to LeeroyJenkins's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
The dust devil I ran into caught me 10 ft off the ground, took us up to 40 ft or so going backwards. Collapsed the canopy, dropped us to 5 ft above the ground. Re-inflated the canopy, snapped us back up to 25 ft or so, horizontal and then dropped us to the ground. After all that fun we got drug 100 ft across the ground until I could disconnect the rsl and cutaway. That was a tandem in PA. Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug.

One of the riggers at Perris (Selena) is originally from there. She knows people there. I have known her for years. Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug. Pelt Head #3 -
Jumping from B24 Liberator or B25 Mitchell
skydivingchad replied to shorehambeach's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Apparently, Collins foundation will no longer be letting their B17 to be used for jumping. A good friend who has been organizing yearly jumps in my area with them was told "no more". As for a B24 or B25, good luck. They were never set up to easily get passengers from the cabin area to the bombbay. The crew had to crawl though the tunnel in order to get from the front to the back. Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug. Pelt Head #3 -

With the wide variety of people on here I am hoping that someone has a membership to club 33 and would be willing to make me a reservation. I am planing a special trip with my gf and would love to propose to her there. Any help would be great. Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug. Pelt Head #3

Vertebrae replacement and recovery time.
skydivingchad replied to aussiefreefly's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I had a burst fracture of my L1 vertebrae after having a canopy collapse. I was reinforced with a cage, screws and rods. I waited a full year before jumping again at my doctors recommendations. I was strong enough and ready after 6 months, but as he said, the bone takes a year to fully regain its strength. Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug. Pelt Head #3 -
