    I'd be happy to introduce you to all of the people who have been very nice to me



    Damn, only introducing him to the nice people? I guess that leaves me out. [:/]



    I'll introduce you to Lamar - you just have to actually be around for it to happen! :P

    That would be Amy. She gave us all some cookies. Amy is founder and promoter of the Leaping Lesbians Skydiving Club!



    I don't think Amy gets credit for founding the club. A large group came came through Hinckley about 6 years ago, printed up tshirts and stickers. There' a handful of old stickers still up at CSC.

    Amy is the chief promoter though. She gave me a sticker but I lost it before I got a chance to properly affix it. [:/]

    _Am



    Right... Toni Armstrong Jr I believe headed up the club. They mainly did tandems. Stickers are available on ebay or I have a few left for any other straight men who want to be a leaping lesbian!

    There was an experienced jumper (female) at SDChicago who was very nice to me and gave me free cookies and brownies after my second tandem!!!;) I don't remember her name but she also jumped out of the same plane as myself that day. I just wanted to thank her again and say your AWESOME! If you post on this board then leave a message. Thanks again



    You're welcome :)
    Looking forward to seeing you around the DZ! I'd be happy to introduce you to all of the people who have been very nice to me

  4. I've been on Celebrex 200 - 400mg/day for years.

    It completely relieves the pain of past sports injuries and surgeries. No other medicine has worked this well for me.

    No side effects.

    I'll be there for tunnel camp both of those days!

    Looking forward to meeting you! :)



    Sweeeeet! If you can squeeze in on my time for a min. since you are busy w. a camp, we can let you in then let you out after the induction so you aren't rushed w. camp stuff. If you would like to be inducted that is;)

    Either way can't wait to meet you and see you fly!



    Try to refrain from laughing. It'll be my first time. I know... more beer.

    Or do you even buy beer for tunnel firsts? I'm such a newbie! You may want to reconsider your offer of being in the tunnel with me ;)

  7. Every skydiver I've spoken to loved their tunnel time and cannot seem to get enough of it. I imagine I'll be the same way.

    But I'm curious, are there any skydivers that did not enjoy their time in the tunnel?

  8. Glad you are okay Beth. Good idea to upload the video - it was educational to watch.

    I had a great time jumping with you yesterday. You can bet you'll be getting pin checks every other time we jump together too!

    Teach the people in your group to check your pin before you put your rig on and then we can do it on the plane.

  10. Jim - excellent video!! Thanks for putting it together. It's been great for my friends and family to watch.

    Doug - you can't quit or we'll rename the team "Doug sucks!" In fact, I vote we do that anyways ;)

    I'm heading up to SDC at the end of the week and staying for 10 days to Finish my A license. If I got the x-tra $ do you think it's worth it?


    Well worth it :)


    I second that! I loved my ride in the Pitts at SDC!

  12. My brother-in-law asked for a tandem for xmas. He called me in July to see if I wanted it because it expired in August and he was too scared to go.

    Thought it was just going to be a one time thing.

    I was so wrong :D

  13. Congrats Mike!

    It was great to jump with you last weekend!

    Looking forward to doing it again soon.

    Enjoy your tunnel time!!

  14. JustABill was there too, but I've already jumped with him ;)

    We formed a great round and then... errr... laughed a lot and had a good time :)
    Too bad we didn't win the scrambles with our mad skills!

  15. Sure... it's a thank you sunshine thread!

    Then I'd better add thanks for packing too :)
    Thank you for being a good listener

    and as always a good trailer ho ;)

  16. For putting on a BELLY suit and doing some fantastic RW work with me! I really learned a lot. I'll be able to use many of those techniques with my 4way team.

    I wonder how many points a kiss pass or a fruit loop are worth in competition! :D

    All Girls team....

    Snatch Force :D the 4-way team I was on, we almost named ourselves that a few years back, but we were asked nicely not to....

    I belive there is a team with that name in CA now :ph34r:



    That's a great name!

    I would've stolen it for our team, but somehow I think the guys wouldn't go for it!

    Undecided. I pretty much spent all my jumping money last weekend. (With Billy since you and Jeth weren't around to keep him company in the sky!:P)



    You don't have to jump. We'll entertain you. Just watch the videos of Jeth and I at the scrambles until your sides hurt from laughing :D
