Kneeriders,

Following the success of our last BIG GROUP jump, I've had a few inquiries about our NEXT BIG GROUP JUMP! Paulie, Petie, Nick, and others had a fantastic experience, and I know you will too. I (or one of the other SOLO KneeJUMPERS) will probably jump out JUST in front of you...:D

Our next BIG GROUP JUMP will be OktoberJUMPfest!!! :p :p :p

Oh yes, and we'll likely have a "normal" Oktoberfest party after the jumping at one of the jumpers places...where we can all relax, relive the incredible RUSH of skydiving, and enjoy a few good pops. More to follow on that as we get closer! ;)

We'll be holding this JUMP on Sunday, October 7, and you are all invited to come on down. :D Following are the details!

You bet I want to fly RB!

I'll be going through major withdrawls by then, and it will be good to get at least one more in before my AFF course!

I may not be able to wait until then, but I'll be there on the 7th for sure!

Looking forward to seeing y'all this weekend . .

I was hoping you'd want to do another jump before AFF...it will be GREAT to see you out there again...at least until we jump together during your training!

I CAN'T WAIT!! YOU ARE GOING TO BE AWESOME IN THE AIR :D :D

A full day of sunshine

So far, we have Nick Hayman, and 2 guests, JT, Fozz, SB, RR/RI and maybe a couple of others. I MAY even be able to pull off a tandem jump (as Chase would say...heck, it's been 3 weeks ya' sissy - walk it off!). We should be able to fill the 1st plane of the day! This is going to be a LOT of fun - so if you'd like to experience the thrill of hauling a$$ through the air at high speed - DON'T MISS THIS!!! :D

See you all tomorrow! :cool:

Rush? Oh yeah...LOTS and LOTS of RUSHING going on this past Sunday at Lodi! :D :p

We all met for our OktoberJUMPfest 2007 group jump...and there were LOTS of smiles throughout the day. We had several new jumpers, and a few old timers (SOLO) jumpers...and we all had a BLAST! :D

Nick Hayman brought Brendan Walsh (both from Munroe Motors in SF) out for a jump, and Chrystal and Karina (Brendan's friends) both came along for the experience as well. As you can imagine - when they touched down, all were ecstatic, and found the experience to be "unreal" and over the top. I LOVE the look on the faces of those who land for the first time. It's such a neat feeling to be able to show someone something THIS cool. :cool:

We'll be having our next quarterly GROUP KNEEJUMP on Sunday December 30 - to help bring in the NEW YEAR right. This will be our SECOND ANNUAL NEW YEARS KNEEJUMP, and I hope many of you can attend - for the ride of your lives! :p ;)

I'm attaching several photos of the event from this past Sunday. Thanks to all of the staff at Lodi who made this happen, and to those who attended. See you all again soon! :D
