  1. and wingsuits, wingsuits, wingsuits... Eloy was a blast. Thanks to the rest of the hollister crew for making it memorable for lv2ffly and me. We missed having the rest of the crew there, though. maybe next year we can get Sebazz, skydivexxl, crapflinger2000, izzieb, and batwing150 down there.
  2. check out the cover of the new 2004 SIM. there's a picture of a black and yellow GTI on the left side next to the second 0 in 2004. I'm proud to admit that I'm the one in the black/yellow suit (
  3. there's a bunch of rangers running around here. i got mine in june, 95 (class 7-95, the last class to go through the desert phase in Bliss) I ran into a couple other rangers at Rantoul this summer... Mutton Chop Mike (SF and Ranger) and Chuck Blaylock (2d Rgr Bat and RI) and a few other guys who jump at skydive monroe in GA. out here in hollister CA, though, I'm the keeping the faith by myself... "though I be the lone survivor" oh, and jarheads are ok with me. sometimes ;-) RLTW. Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?"

  9. Okily dokily- here's the latest scoop: Zack (batwing150) and lizzieB are seriously considering taking Zack's 5th wheel trailer down to eloy for the event. I just talked to Bob Lantieri on the phone and he is probably in. Now we need to start a tentative list (subject to mucho change, but a changing list is better than no list) We need to start looking at driving arrangements and GAS MONEY, too... [;-)] So far, it looks like Skyshark6 (Rob) and ilv2ffly's (sarema) RV--> skydivexxl (andy) room for 2 or so more passengers, but Andy's claimed the bed Bob Lantieri (not a dz.commer) Bob's wife, Deb room for 2-4 passengers on the trip, but they only have one extra bed in their RV Batwing150's 5th wheel LizzieB Unassigned: skypup (Brian) Kermor (Gwen) chopchop (roy) ? theAnvil (Super Vinnie) ? vdschoor (iwan) ?

  12. Ok, so do we need to start a list and see who's driving? are we to that point of committing, yet, or should I wait a month? Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?" A: "I've never seen a bird get bored with flight and decide to start walking instead."
  13. For a second there after reading the title I thought you had jumped at Hollister last weekend I don't think anyone got it, but I laughed my ass off, Seb!!! Har Har Har! whooooo, i'm startin' to tear up. (and i'm not being sarcastic, for once) Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?" A: "I've never seen a bird get bored with flight and decide to start walking instead."
  14. You're welcome Renaud. Now you and Phlip need to buy your own so we can all flock together. Oh, and STRAIGHTEN YOUR LEGS Oh, and one more thing POINT YOUR TOES Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?"

  16. Paso Peoples unite! Seb, you need to re-open Paso. I'll be your first employee and Sarema can be your second. It would be nice not to have to drive 2.5 hours every time I want to jump. (though I would still make trips to see the Hollicoaster folks of course!) Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?" A: "I've never seen a bird get bored with flight and decide to start walking instead."
  17. I missed the first four hours of the conference the next day after we partied in San Fran. I was so hung over. by the way, you're a horrible influence. on the bright side, it made a good train-up for my trip to germany a week later. Prost! Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?" A: "I've never seen a bird get bored with flight and decide to start walking instead."
  18. 60mph creeper races. Just what the doctor ordered. Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?" A: "I've never seen a bird get bored with flight and decide to start walking instead."
  19. Hi Haley. Hopefully we'll run into you (and your mean dog ) at Eloy, then. sorry you gotta move... Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?" A: "I've never seen a bird get bored with flight and decide to start walking instead."
  20. Caravan it is. obviously the caravan that I go on will have to be after Xmas (27th is the plan so far), but others might want to go down before Xmas (separate caravans?) The quickest route is down 5, past Bob and Deb Lanteri's house, though LA on the 10 to Phoenix and down to Eloy. we're talking 12 hours from hollister (according to mapquest) Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?" A: "I've never seen a bird get bored with flight and decide to start walking instead."
  21. how did I know Liz would be the first one to respond to this post at 8:30am? Sarema and I are staying home for this weekend to rest and recuperate. We'd like to get up there next weekend, but it will be hard. October is pretty chock full for us (Sarema's taking a 7 day cruise to Mexico next weekend with her girlfriends), but we're saving $$ for Eloy, anyhow. Thanks for asking about my heel. It's still tender and I can't put weight on it. the sides of my foot are all black and blue from bruising. I can get around, but i have to tippy-toe everywhere. If you can go with us to Eloy, that would be great. we have an extra bed or two in the RV that is always available for our skydiving buddies... Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?" A: "I've never seen a bird get bored with flight and decide to start walking instead."
  22. Hey, who from the hollicoaster crowd is going to Eloy and when are you going? Sarema and I are looking at taking off on 27 DEC and staying until 2 or 3 JAN. wanna ride or covoy with us in the bestest RV ever made? Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?" A: "I've never seen a bird get bored with flight and decide to start walking instead."
  23. Thanks, the hybrid was a fun jump. before we broke off, bob and I got a dock... he was flat and I was in a sit. more sweetness. This thread is branching out way beyond beach jumps... yeah, simon, I need to put the hybrids i have on tape together. I should get a dub of what you have and put it with my stuff to make a killer vid. Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?" A: "I've never seen a bird get bored with flight and decide to start walking instead."
  24. Now This is a nice hybrid! --- see attached. The Anvil (vinnie) and the Anchor (Bob K.) in the base, Zac hanging, Rob Stinging, and Sarema filming. SA-WEET taken Sunday, 8/31/03 Q: "Do you think it gets boring just flying around or is there more to it?" A: "I've never seen a bird get bored with flight and decide to start walking instead."
  25. We were glad to have you former AAW guys and girls come visit. We had a BBQ on sunday, but most of you had already left next time we'll do a bbq on saturday and everyone can hang out and eat, drink, and be merry. Blue skies (and no fog) - Rob (former Paso Robles jumper who migrated to Monterey and then to Hollister. I still make the drive from San Luis Obispo cause Hollister is the best!)
