Re: [BASE813] Right - i am bored shitless!!!!
Hey ....Mac
I remember when I was laid up about 10 years or
more, ago with a broken Femur and Heal.
I was a couple hundred jump wonder at the DZ,
when I got my first ZP canopy.
Before that the hottest canopy on the DZ was a
PD 150. So, Wham - Bam. I was out 5 months.
I will tell you a short and TRUE Story......
Three of us. Zaz, Josh and I were climbing a tower on
a warm summer night. The Moon was full and the fields
below the tower was fresh cut hay ready to bail.
We were up about maybe 300 ft. when we saw a truck
coming up the dirt road towards the tower.
We froze and slowly moved keeping the steel frame work
between us and the truck.
Below we could not see much but we defiantly heard
2 doors slam shut on the, pickup truck.
Our Sliders were up on the pack jobs. We had to go up.
We climbed extra quiet and we finally made it to the top
of the crows nest. It was almost 900 ft.up.
We all were more nervous than usual because of the extra
drama. I said "At least the wind is in our favor and we
don't have to exit over the truck." I swear to god it was
not 5 minutes latter and sure as shit the wind shifted.
Blowing towards the truck.
We talked a bit and made some kind of game plan in case
the shit hit the fan and we had to make a run for it on landing.
Standing around we were looking at each other wondering
who was going first. Naturally I said "Fuck it, I'm out of here"
So I exited first, starring at the truck on the way down.
I did not smoke it to deep on the delay but it was good.
I opened up and Guess what I saw ???
Apperently a warm summer night, full moon and a tower
attract more than BASE jumpers.
Sprawled out on a blanket in the fresh cut hay.
A Guy and a young Girl, were shagging hard at it.
