  1. I was just in the ER too. I got a broken jaw and a concussion. I dont know if the ER sucks though because i done remember a secodnd of the night. i hope u feel better and get back in the sky soon Nick
  2. the dzo made a special case for me bacause i grew up at the dz. my dad and mom started skydiving when i was one. i was packing sence i was 13 and was the only packer on our dz sence i was 14. so he trusted me not to sue him.
  3. im a second gereration skydiver and i started this year when i was 16. i was wondering if there are anybody else out there jumping at my age? if so it would be nice to jump with someome close to my age. Nick
  4. I pack for my self. but i also have about 1500 pack jobs for other people too. I have under 20 jumps and i have people paying my to teach them how to pack. But i grew up on the dz.

    broken jaw

    My family has a thing for not getting hurt doing anything cool. Tuesday was my dads birthday and i was blowing up ballons and i got dizzy and fell. i hit my head on a table and got a concussion and a broken jaw. i have to eat out of a straw now and i cant skydive for a while because of the concussion. I dont get why i can never have a cool story when i get hurt. I snowboard skydive surf mountain bike..... and the list goes on. Does anybody have the same problem? blue skies Nick
  6. think u have to wait long. my dad started skydiving when i was one and they made me wait until i was 16. i was a packer when i was 12 so i think it would be good for u to start. but remember it gets worse the more u are there and cant jump.
  7. you could go up north and end up in san francisco. but if you are going in late december early january then it will probly be cloudy and foggy. either ending up in L.A or San Francisco would be a great road trip. i sudjest if u have time to go to LA then go up highway 1 up the coast and fly back out of SFO. I hope its a fun trip Nick
  8. i play a bundy II right now and i think you should sell it for 250. bundies arnt really good so dont expect to get 300. i think the best option would be to sell it on ebay. that way you can get the most money for it. Nick
  9. ive been a packer for years and the thing i always tell people when going from f-111 to zp is to always keep constant pressure on the canopy. on f-111 u can take your knee off and nothing bad will happen. on zp it will try to expand and probly will. i advise pay a packer and watch them pack it (o and tip them if its brand new zp). hope that helps Nick

  11. i think kerry will win the election but thats not why im posting. i just wanted to let people know that micheal Badnarick of the liberaterian party is actually a skydiver. he used to jump at madera parachute center in california. the doesnt jump anymore but he is an aff jump master and a good friend of ours. sorry about being a little of topic. nick
  12. Good job. im working on getting mine too. im still on student status but i got half the card filled out already. hopefully i will get the jumps in befor the end of the year. blue skies
  13. i got one. this is my friend last year.
  14. im one of two packers at out dz and the two reasons i get pack jobs is either i pack faster or better than the jumper or its way too hot. most jumpers i know dont like packing when its 100+. Nick
  15. i got some firsts. 1) first jump 2) first AND second malfunction (both pilot chute in tow) 3) first jump on my own gear. 4) first pieing all of these were during my level one two and three of my aff yesterday
  16. i forgot to tell u about the pieing. so i was in the middle of packing my dads rig when 4 guys tackle me. it took them 15 minuets, a whole role of duct tape and a back board to get me restrained. then they took me to a really muddy field and completly covered me with 6 cans of whip cream. then they decided to"help" me by washing off the wipcream wtih a 5 gall watter jug filled with cold water. and we got it all on tape. its been declared the best pieing thats our dz has had. hope u like my first day as a skydiver. Nick
  17. thanks for the replies. i just made the jump saturday. my parents gave me an eclipse rig with a sabre 170 and a cypress. i love it. o and because the rig is made for a 130-150 i had a pilot chute in tow for both my first AND second jump. somehow they still let me up for my level three. i dont have any pics yet but i well soon. blue skies Nick
  18. next week i will finally get to to a jump. Both my parents started jumping when i was 1 so ive been on the ground for 15 years. I turn 16 thursday so on saturday i finally get to jump. The funny thing is my dad will be my AFFi. O and after 2000 pack jobs i will finally get to jump my own. I hope it all goes well nick
