  1. I dont know to much about the legality of people my age jumping and to be honest i can sum it up with two words "bull shit" this sue happy world has really messed things up for the decent people left in the world. I called Numerous Dz's in my home state MI and in OH no one would let me jump since i was only 16 and i wasnt mature enough to make my own choices...Great might as well throw salt in my wounds while your at it. I finally found a Dz "Skydive wayne county" that let me jump lsat summer, my first jump is something ill never forget the fact alone i was allowed to jump has earned my total respect its just sad Dz's have to take "risks" just so someone under 18 can do something they love. im just kind of ranting with no real purpose to my post. Im just expressing how sick it makes me that people can sue over the smallest thing i.e "hot pickles" "acne medicine turned my kid bad" "made me say a prayer" what is wrong with this world!!! Well atleast there is some normal people left that make it easier for people my age so Rock on all you normal people.

  3. Val,
    Im sorry you had a bad day at Richmond sometimes pilots are hard to get ahold of. I hope the next time you visit we'll be running full speed. Next time your heading to Richmond let me know maybe we can make a few skydives. Just look for the youngest kid at the dz, or ask for Michigan Dan or Shortbus. I look forward to the next time you come down so you can have some fun at richmond

  4. ok well, Cajun and Val can come down next weekend and we'll all have a few jumps, a few beers and everything will be great.
    see beer can solve all your problems

  5. Im a jumper at Richmond im kinda late on this post but i thought i would throw out my 2c
    Richmond is a close DZ and the people are great, more then likely you caught them on a bad day. We have a full time Caravan this year and im not sure if it was the only thing flying but not all our pilots can fly it (i think) and i dont think the whole Dz is against this other local Dz you talk about maybe someone had a bad Experience at there and was just bitching. I say give us a chance to redeem ourselves if your still in the area this weekend coming up should be nice and I'll be there so i'll be your buddy. So hey you cant lose all im sayin is give us another shot cause everyone is real nice just sometimes grumpy =).
    just my opinion but hey im only 16 what do i know =P

  6. i thought the chinese men riding the log down the hill was pretty good....and they think skydiving is crazy no way im riding some tree down a hill

  7. one of those canopy simulators, im not sure if its ssk is at Skydive Wayne County used to be Aerodrome they use it to train students and a few months back they got the program to simulate a 130 something canopy all you need to do is input the weight and fly its pretty cool just thought i would throw that out
