  1. Hey all, just a quick last-minute post on the last-minute benefit happening this weekend (Saturday, July 2nd) for Manny and Jimmy at Skydive Elsinore. A day of jumping, playing, and good memories to raise money for those who helped in the search efforts for the accident in Costa Rica. I hear there will be a car-bashing to raise money too! Any other detials I get between now and then, I'll try to pass them along... Come on out and support our family! I will definitely be there at 7:30am, rig ON -- who's with me?? (Manny, that's for you, babe! xo) Thanks to all, hope to see you there!

  8. I agree. That being said, PC teams are a great way to learn more quickly. Having a coach in there every single jump, every single debrief, every single camp--- you really have no choice but to get better. That's the goal, anyway! __________________________________________________________ http://www.skydiveelsinore.com/teams/EXCEL/basic_camp.html
  9. Hey all, yes yes YES! THIS WEEKEND! (June 4-5) Bridge the Gap is a MUST event for all you newer jumpers out there -- a weekend filled with crazy amounts of info on safety, gear selection, exiting, flying, packing, spotting, etc, etc, ETC!
  10. Hey all, this is DEFinitely a great opportunity for someone to step into a fun, driven team already built. I was on Elsinore Adrenaline with John Hamilton as player-coach in 2003, and it was one of the most rewarding years of 4-way I've ever done. I can't say enough good things about it. Plus, Caitie and Morgan (Alloy point and tail) rule-- HIGH QUALITY PEEPS! QP!

  23. Yo everyone, just so you know, the Gravity Games are for belly peeps AND freeflyers alike---- it's not discipline-specific-- anyone can come and play, and SHOULD! The only requirement is that you have at least 150 jumps. We want to keep everyone safe since we'll be doing some crazy stuff in the sky (and on the ground)..... ..... __________________________________________________________ http://www.skydiveelsinore.com/teams/EXCEL/basic_camp.html
  24. Skydive Elsinore’s newest event is coming…… Mark your calendars now…… just over a month away…… Saturday, April 16th…… The Gravity Games are here. Think the X games with a lot more altitude and entertainment. One day of individual competition with five extreme rounds to see who is the coolest skydiver. It's FS, freeflying, canopy control, accuracy, and a crap load of attitude all wrapped up in one event. Extreme tracking races, hybrids, Can U Launch It?, Camera Geek and Canopy Run, horny gorillas…… Live video judging (and commentary!) on the big screen Saturday night with pizza, beer, and plenty of partying…… let the hilarity ensue…… http://www.skydiveelsinore.com/calendar/GravityGames/index.html It’s individual registration too—no teams to organize, just show up and it’s ON. SLOTS ARE LIMITED, so email me at [email protected] for more info. And feel free to forward this on to anyone you think would want to be in on the action. Any questions—anything, just drop me a line. I’ll gladly procrastinate from whatever else I’m doing to fill you in on all the details. All about it!
