Thread: Skydiving May 11th.

  1. #1

    Skydiving May 11th.

    Want to tell your mom how much you love her on mothers day by jumping out of a perfectly good airplane.

    Sunday, May 11th 2008.

    I would like to get a large group of Bogley friends to come taste the outdoors at 13,000 feet.

    The more the marrier, and the cheaper. Get some more details on www.skydiveogden.com

    Lets get as many peeps as we can, and experience the extreme outdoors!

    Weather, availability and weight limit (*200 lbs) are considerations for your safety. Please call for your reservations! $2 per pound extra over 200 lbs. Other restrictions may apply.

    Crap! I'm going to go broke
    Seriously, I'm going to ask permission for this one... I've wanted to do this for a looooong time

    trust me, you'll make it to the ground one way or another.

    More dates are always available. This is just the next upcoming jump i'll be doing. I think some of you might be scared..? hmm?

    Don't worry, there is a death certificate to sign before you get in the plane. That way you know your safe.

    Damn right!! My palms sweat just thinking about it!


    Tell you what -- if you can get Acca and Beech to come out and do it...I'll sign on.
    It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.

    As much of a dare devil that I THINK I am (or was)..........this is the one thing on my list that I can't bring myself to do. After having kiddos, my life has seriously changed. What happened? HAHA!!!

    Sorry man, one of the questions on any life insurance plan asks if you do, or plan to, do any skydiving (among other dangerous activities). If you answer yes to any of these, DENIED!

    I will be in between houses. . .hectic time. Perhaps later in the summer.

    Acca and Beech are out.. to bad.

    Its a one day.. well.. half a day event. Well worth it i must say.

    Honestly, its not that scary. Very smooth and relaxing actually.

    Many more jumps to come.. and no more excuses.

    With a baby on the way, my wife basically told me 'hell no'.
    I did put my foot down and I am going when I'm 40 (10 years and counting/wishing)

    I did this back in the '70s. It is awesome, my ex-wife was on the ground and told me I was laughing and carrying on all the way down. These were static line jumps, not tandem. Tandem might be more fun but i loved stepping out on the wheel/strut and holding onto the wing until the jump master tapped you on the a$$.

    Have fun!!

    As much as I'd like to join in, I'm unavailable on that date, and I need to add a few jumps to my logbook this year too!

    For those of you worried about Life Insurance, after I left the Army (with many static lines jumps under my belt), State Farm told me they'd pay out if I ever "burned-in" on a free fall jump. Nothing extra required based on my existing policy. The minute the wife heard that, it was open season on jumping!

    If you're going on a tandem jump, call ahead to ensure they have a JM that is equivalent in weight.

    I'm going to be honest and say that I'm scared to do it, heh. For the time being at least, heh. But I am motivated not to overpay a single dollar when I finally get around to it.

    So is Forty the only one with a pair? Better do it before you get too old and or over weight

    Sounds like a few of you are cracked with the whip.
