Yeah, man, I thought I saw you! Do you live at Perris now and not do Tandems at Skydance anymore? If you're the same JP that was at the American Boogie recently, you did my first tandemn back in '02.

Hey now! Did it get you to altitude? I rest my case! Sorry, having been "born and raised" at a cessna dz, I get a little protective. Me too, this was a different dz than the one I did AFF and this was DEFINITELY the most ghetto cessna.

2 solo jumps from the most ghetto cessna ever...but the DZ is only about 40 miles away.

Well, how ya doin'? I'm only about 45 miles north of you in Rohnert Park.

You can probably find out any type of slang or colloquialisms (no matter how gross) here: http://www.urbandictionary.com/ Probably the PG13 version - no pics. (My Lord; why oh why did I even bother with this thread.)

This...video...rocks. I did a bungee from the supply gondola from S____ to M____. This valley is soooooo beautiful.

For you SoCal locals, how long does it take to get to Elsinore and Perris Valley from Newport Beach? My stepbro might move there and need to think of where the local DZs are in relation of course.

Yeah, but SurfControl sez otherwise.

You say that like it's a bad thing! On another message board, there is an acronymn, ATGTF. Another Thread Gone to Flirt.

[disclaimer]I only have 75 jumps and don't have my license yet, so I may not know what the hell I'm talking about.[/disclaimer] I'm sure that if you have an up-to-date reserve, license that you'll be good to go...as long as the equipment is within the past two decades and in good condition.

There's a discussion on this on another message board I hang out at, but you got some good examples.

Yes! I do remember that too!

Ahhh, monkeyboy! Yes, and I appreciated the help. Btw, I've packed my last three jumps and they've all been groovy, so I think that I'm finally retaining a little of what I've been learning. I really gave myself away with that pic attachment.

Or do you mean sundive at skydance?

Well, I lied about adding an avatar. Everything I have is at least double the allowed 9.77Kb. Weak. Here's at least a pic of me (wearing glasses - I usually don't) and the second is my usual Avatar, which matches my handle which is my middle name.

Someone e-mailed that to me a couple of days ago. Cute.

Thanks!

Yup. I'm not in the "drinking condition" that I was when I was at Chico St. (97-99). That Bradley Brew stuff is in the 6.5-9% range. Not weak....and I didn't bring any water with me, didn't drink any from dinner on, and Skydance rips you off with the water from the snack bar (3$ for a liter bottle of Costco stuff).

You guys are going to be the death of me if I end up going. I drank 5 pints at the American Boogie...which I should have stopped at 3.

Thanks!

Yes, I think we've been briefly acquainted a couple of times. I'm a generic looking brown haired american male, about 5'6" and average build. Well that narrows it down Like, I said, "generic". Sorry if I may have been uninspiring, maybe annoying and downright forgetful in person. I think flirt better online - less intimidating. Anyway, maybe I'll add an avatar when I get home this evening...of an actual pic of myself instead of the pic where it shows my predecessor ascending into heaven in a flaming chariot where I'm about to get a double portion of his mantle which I usually use as an avatar. Stay tuned...

mcneill79, Were you at the American Boogie recently and...umm...hungover pretty much from Friday evening through part of Saturday? Just curious.

Would one of you cool people who hang out here all the time tell me WTF is up with this Byron Boogie vs NCFF concept? I'm sorry if I'm new to the board, still don't have my 'A', less than 100 jumps and really suck whenever I attempt to anything other than belly flying (not that I'm super accurate at that either). All I know is that I went to the NCFF 2 years ago (my first boogie ever - Scott Meeker from Guano and some other dude threw me out of the back of the CASA and I was called Bumblee a few times since I was using some yellow jumpsuit from ActionAir) and there was this boogie a few weeks later called the Byron Boogie at some town called Byron near Brentwood in the East Bay. So, did these two merge and it is only taking place at Byron and nothing in the fall at Skydance? Will they let me jump even if I still don't have my 'A' in Sept (even though I've jumped at 5 different DZs, have 76 jumps and my own rig)? I asked GravityGirl, but I she's too busy answer my PM. Someone please? Thanks!
