If I knew how to embed videos I would, but until I do - here is a link to the video.

Wolf, Ramzey and Cabello jumped out at Byron, CA - its weird b/c while you don't do anything physically, when you land you feel completely shattered for like 2 hours. Granted the leg straps cut off blood to the boys, part of my body just went numb. Kickass experience.

Congrats! They say you never forget your first, but I did, since it was a static line jump....my 6th jump was by far the most memorable, since I got to pull my own rip cord.

Ramzey on his way out.

Congrats on your first skydive! You're no longer considered a 'whuffo'

Is that a King Air or a Beech-99? Hard to tell from that angle.

How expensive was it and from what alt did you jump?

At risk of being a wuss, not nice to point guns at people, Russian, even in a WWII flight sim avatar.

Was just in a gun store yesterday when the staff was lamenting some holster companies that do that sort of thing. Not best image for the gun industry.

He gets excused since he has an NRA cap on.

Was a King Air C90 I believe, 14K was the drop alt.

Yea, a C90...I was suprised when I first saw it. Never heard of anyone jumping from them...

Congrats Wolf. "Are you scared"? NO...........(dumbfounded look)haha...Getting ready for my first jump, I thought I was confident as can be...Then I watched the video hahaha!!!! Glad you did it and had fun dude!

I'm jumping the ranch in New York this Saturday. I'll have to post my vid.

Wolf/Ramzey- Mind if I ask how much they charged for your tandem jump?

Wolfala · « **Reply #13 on:** March 20, 2007, 07:48:57 PM »

About 185 per jump. Can get yr quals done for about 1400 or 7 jumps. Then, if u choose, buy a used rig for 3K, etc.

Well......technically you didn't jump

I did a tandem few months ago, but now I want to do it by-myself. I just didn't get rush / felt danger when strapped to some dude.
