I did it. I got a nice media discount (over 50% off.) It was fun - It was NOT worth full price. You got ten parabalas. It's NOT the same as skydiving. Just because you don't get sick when you jump is NOT the same thing. I didn't puke, but I was DAMN Close. Half the plane puked. Which made the rest of the flight... Not so fun. That said, if you can afford it, sure - do it - it's one hell of a cool thing to be weightless. But if you tip a 182 pilot $20 on a wind hold day, you can probably get the same effect. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

Not going to happen - I'm supposed to speak tomorrow. Am supposed to be on a plane now between Frankfurt and Bangalore. I'm not. I'm on my couch in NYC. Argh. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

When a conference organizer tells you that "he'll take care of all the details in getting you there," it's usually a good idea to check. You know, so you don't show up at the airport for your trip to keynote a conference in INDIA and find out YOU NEED A FUCKING VISA AND ONE WAS NEVER GOTTEN FOR YOU. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?"

Anyone done one? Signed up for my first one in November in Cozumel. Anyone? I can't even MEASURE the level of idiocy I've reached by attempting this... _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

I was supposed to do my second Tandem ever, the day Columbia exploded. I cancelled it out of respect. I remember it was in Vegas and the person behind the counter said "yeah, well, not jumping isn't going to bring them back." I've never gone to nor recommended that drop zone again. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

Aw!! I've been on the road all week - I just saw this! Thanks, guys! Was a nice piece! :) -Peter _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

I love mine. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

Was taking some photos of the fountains, when a guy taps me on the shoulder, asking if I would take a photo of him and his girlfriend. As I'm setting up the shot, he drops to one knee and proposes. It was so very cool.

Hey guys... Went to the dropzone section, but have no idea about the geography of Australia - Any skydiving operations for fun jumpers in Queensland, Australia? Thanks! _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

I'm sad that I didn't. :( _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

I've never had a problem getting my rig (in a gear bag) as carry-on, and I jump a 229. It's not a small rig. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

Well. That's lovely. Thank you for the update. Glad you had fun, at least... :( :/ _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

Got to ZHills in time to do a helicopter jump. Didn't get on the sunset load. Where are all you dz.com people. Come up and say hi if you see me! Got home last night. The only thing that kept the trip from being a total #fail was the cool people I met. 2 jumps in four days. Stupid weather. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

Well, if someone would have gotten to the dz earlier, I could have jumped with him and his better half! I tried to get Peter to jump with me but he had to do some work. On the upside, I convinced him to pencil in the Fitzgerald Boogie into his schedule. You should too, Dave! I had a good time at the boogie yesterday, but I was a popsicle by the time I left! So typical, Andrea... Always blaming other people... Was so cool hanging out with you. Was so COLD, hanging out at Z-Hills. #weatherfail. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?"

Sweet! So it's like The Ranch, all on account! That 100% makes it all good - Didn't know Z-Hills went to an account format - last time I was there it was still paper tickets. All questions answered, all issues solved. Thread can be killed, I can fly to Florida without worry. :) Sweet. _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?"

Hey gang - Quick q that I'm sure can be answered in about two seconds... I just bought a block of 20 tickets through skydivecity.com's online store - Assuming I just show up and give them my email or name, and they give me 20 tickets? All I got was a receipt saying "hey, we took your money." Assuming it's fine, and I just show up - just curious. Anyone else bought jump tickets online at Skydive City? Thanks! Can't WAIT for the boogie! Woot!!

So do I actually, possibly, maybe, could be, who knows, get to jump with Skymama sometime in the next few days?? _______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."
