  1. Thats one I will have to remember. That is way too funny!!! Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  2. Hey Andy Did you jump up hill, BOTH WAYS, and like it!! Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  3. Hey Chris I can jump out of planes and have no issues at all, but, I have a hard time getting on extension ladders, scaffolding and such. They are way to creepy! Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  4. I was bored, figured I would look through older posts and found this jewel. smile-two.jpg has to be one of the best camera shots, period, that I have ever seen. It has everything to do with skydiving; the pilot, the plane, the TI, the student with the "I am scared as hell, but refuse to show it" look. Priceless, priceless, proceless! That pic made my daughter want to go do a tandem. Too bad she is only 13.. Very cool work!! Kevin Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  5. Hey Doug Good work!!! I will be looking forward to you next clip. (how about using some of your music for the background? Your stuff is fantastic!!!) Kevin Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  6. I agree totally with you about the golf courses. The golf courses are around so the retirees have something to do during the week. I learned how to jump with the club and couldn't have done it otherwise. The closing of the club will make it difficult for the lower enlisted folks who want to take up skydiving. Another aspect of this story is the history that skydiving just lost. The club has been around since 1957, and has produced a lot of well known skydivers. It was an avenue for the Golden Knights to recruit jumpers other than the HALO dudes. The profits from AAFES and other venues are supposed to be used to support MWR activities. MWR was never meant to be a stand alone for profit activity. It was meant to support our troops. Killing the club will not save taxpayer money, as the money has already been earned through profits payed by........you guessed it, the troops who work their asses off and can no longer play as hard as they work. Sorry for the rant, but it is a sad day when leadership cares more about the money than the troops. Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  7. Way to go, have fun and be safe!!! Love your signature line Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!

  9. Jarrod I got mine off the classifieds on this site. It took a little while for one to come available that I was interested in. I was not in a hurry and my patience paid off with a cypress just out of four year with new batteries. Kevin Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  10. Just a quick note to wish all of you DZ.com'ers out there a very Merry Christmas and a Happy, Safe and Jumperiffic New Year. Have fun and be safe!!!!! Kevin Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  11. First sell your golf clubs (like I did), then sell your hand-gun (like I did), then sell your paintball stuff (like I did), and then ask if anybody needs some climbing gear cheap (two trad racks with three sets of cam's), nobody has bought my climbing gear yet but I will find someone!!!
  12. Thats BEEEEEEEEER!!!!!!! Congrats, have fun and be safe!!!! Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  13. Packing was a part of my first jump course. We made our first jump on our own pack job. What better way to get to know your gear, than to lay it out, look at it, and pack it? Our first jump course is a week long from 6-9 pm and we dedicate 5 hours to packing. Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  14. Rig #5 and Canopy #7, good looking combo!! Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  15. Hey Dave Way to go. Congrats on the license, now go out and have fun and be SAFE!!! Kevin Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  16. The helmet still looks great, I get a lot of compliments on it. Glad to hear you are back up and feeling better!! Kevin Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  17. Yes, I took the rush option. I needed a new suit, as the one I have now, I purchased it used and it is wore out. I think it was a good investment. Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  18. 13 days ago I ordered my pre-second brand new Majic Comp Suit from Bev Suits. It arrived today. How's that for fast service!!! The suit is BEAUTIFUL!! It compliments my rig perfectly. I cant tell y'all how pleased I am with the fit and finish. It fits great and looks great too. I cant wait to try it out and use the booties. Thanks Bev and Michelle. Y'all ROCK!!!! Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  19. All I can say is WOW!! It took 13 days for me to get my suit. It is a piece of art. I am no fashion wizard so I sent Bev a picture of my rig and let them do the rest. The outcome is spectacular. I cannot recommend Bev Suits enough. The service and support is stellar. Buy a Bev Suit, you wont be disappointed!!!
  20. Did you say the "I just got my license?" words??? (BEEEEEEEEEEER). Well done, I hear triple axles out of CASA's can be interesting!!! Welcome to our world!!!! Have fun, be safe, and let me know if you are ever going to attempt the triple axel out of the CASA, I want video!!!!! Kevin Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  21. Did you say the "F" word???? (BEEEEEEEEEER) Have fun, be safe, listen to your instructors, and last but not least, pay your Beer fines. I did, and now I have a bunch of new drunk friends. Kevin Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
  22. Didn't even look at my post numbers, thats funny. I didn't mean to imply the first photo was a bad picture. It is an excellent representation of Infinities commitment to excellence!!!! (Yeah thats it). That picture should be in every skydiving publication out there. Infinity sales would go through the roof!!!!! I haven't posted my Infinity yet, but I will take pictures this weekend, and no they will not be as HOT!!!....um....I..mean..er....as well framed as yours!!! Kevin Blue Skies and Stand-up Landings!!!!!!
