  1. Not exactly, I'm talking about any week between now and September 13th. ~*~ ags over texas!!! ~*~ the weekend of sept. 9 i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce
  2. i guess it depends where you land... i landed wayyy across the street once and kinda got muddy. seriously tho, we have a paved runway w/ a huge grassy landing area-- i've been out after it rained before and didn't get dirty[url edit-better pic below i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce
  3. i'm biting my tounge i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce
  4. can you rent canopies for an extended amount of time? i'm fully aware of the demo programs -- i think that rocks... but i will need to buy used canopies. until then, here's what i want to do- i have a 50% off a wings container i'd like to use. so i thought i'd buy that(so i hve something that fits nice), find a cypres with a few years left (so it's nice and cheap with new batts)... THEN rent my canopies until a good deal comes along. I'm renting gear right now through my dropzone, but at 25/jump.. it adds up, plus i am will be around for a while and rather have something that's mine. right now i usually fly a sabre2-- i fly/land that okay. Then, last weekend i tried a sabre-- i liked it because it was in a smaller harness... but crashed 3 out of 4 times. even my practice flares up high were awful. renting a sabre2 would be ideal... because i know how to land them. eventually i will want to demo canopies- my first stand up was on a spectre, so ofcourse i like them (or was that luck???) and also want to try a triathalon... and other similar, easy to fly/land canopies. but that's down the road. SO renting canopies---is there a place that does this? i have 32 jumps, steps away from my license. i also took scott millers essential skills course last w/e. on a 170, i'm loaded at .8..... i think that' all for now. any advice is appreiated
  5. >>>Tent sites with electricity are $15 per night, and without is $10. .....or sleep four to a room. every year i get together with my friends from college (since we're so scattered now), and thats what we do--hell, we fit 6! but thats us. it's way cheap and you get showers. if anyone is going to do this, pm me!! i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce
  6. can instructors/dz staff tell who is likely to return after their first jump? also, can you tell how long someone is likely to stick around? (10, 25, 300+ jumps???)... get licensed AND use it, jump frequent enough get their coach rating, etc? do you know? if so, how? it's so easy to get hooked, i'm curious what the responses might be i guess.
  7. learn to work in layers... saves time. beautiful pic btw!!! i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce

  9. ok, i got an evite but i don't see a single one of our friends from college (other than the bride) on the invite list. i'm thinking since he sister is throwing it, she might not know how to get the rest of us. she left the "invite others" feature open. would it be in poor taste to use it? OR would you email first? Or neither?? it's a surprise, so i doubt word will spread on its own. usually i know the planner and nobody is left off. i don't want to step on any party planning feet.... especially when i don't know their owner eta: added screenshot i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce

  18. yes and no. i'd be mad that they were so rude, but would rather have someone take their time measuring me for something so important. so no, if they're going to rush through, then i'd rather wait anyway.
  19. hi cora!!! you should have introduced yourself as ladyskydiver. i would have known the name then have I ever mentioned that beer stinks? At least my hair is nicely conditioned today. hmmm i only got the mud treatment btw- thanks to guys for bailing me out! and a HUGE thanks to upndownshop!!!!! i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce

  21. they haven't broken ground. i think we decided the pic on the website is a modified orlando tunnel. i asked a while back and got my answer here- http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_flat;post=1436763;page=1;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;mh=25; also - http://dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1712531 maybe dallas or san antonio is more likely? i'm surprised they are putting up so many so close on the west coast. i guess as long as they profit but as far as your question goes, unless your a serious tunnel rat, you can mark your time on that blank page in your log book. that's what i did anyway.
  22. you two are being way too picky. ...trying to find someone into sex AND skydiving? good luck w/ that.... i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce
  23. tandems? noooo.... i'm still trying to control a 170! i see what you're saying though haha! i know it's going to open, i'm just worried about what it will look like! the lines start moving from the center when i start to put it in the bag. our packer taught me the knee trick as well!!! i need to get better at that though because as soon as i let pressure off, i ruin it. that too!!!i'm also scared of a really hard opening. >>when the hell did I pass you in jumps? hey gru--- when you learned to pack! i'll be saying "please open prettty please open pretty.." thanks all
  24. yeah, i skydive. whatcha wanna know about it? askme anything! i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce
