  1. Hey ladies,
    Keep me informed, I'd love to join a team! I did the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure 5K this year and I do a stair climb for Ketchum-Downtown Los Angeles YMCA (for the kids) in early October.

  5. Hey byates,

    My current g/f and I met after I had already been jumping for a little while, now that I am getting ready to head back out for the first time in 5+ years, she's been really supportive. She has, however, had some dreams recently where I left her for someone else so last night I got the "you know if you hook up with some hot little skydiving girl she won't do your laundry or cook for you..." I'll be going to Perris for their boogie this week and I think it's because I won't be home every night. She's going to be out there with me on Sat & Sun, so hopefully that'll ease her mind. She'd have a great time at Perris with the pool, tunnel, and BAR.

    Good luck!

    What would an all female dropzone be like?

    100% female.

    Discuss.

    Weres the fun in that ????



    I'm right there with you...although it sounds intriguing, it sucks since I wouldn't be allowed, being that I'm a male. No fun whatsoever!

  16. Hey mamajumps,

    Wanted to see how the team formation was going. Where are you located? I've had aspirations of starting up a team myself (after I get back out there), but my last few visits to my home DZ have shown me that almost all the people I jumped with, have moved on.

  22. Hey buba,
    I hear ya. Although during the first couple of years of jumping I showed no fear and was always rarin' to go, I find myself a little nervous. I'm coming back in after a 5+ year hiatus, with a newly healed shoulder, and although I know it's like riding a bike, the feeling of reliving the excitement - that addiction to skydiving, and testing my skills again, makes me a little nervous.

    After my first cutaway I had people ask me when I was getting back up. They thought I would be hesitant...I just figured what the cost of that day ended up being (financially) and decided I'd be back the following week...not because I was scared.

    Best thing I've found for other times I've been nervous about stuff...breath. Just take some deep breaths. Be strong, be safe, buba.
