Skydiving

livn2do — Thu, 08 Jul 2004 03:20:24 GMT

Hey I completed my first tandem jump on July 4th. What a rush. Better then I ever thought it would be. Everything went great until the landing...I broke my tibia and fibula. Still wouldn't trade the experience for anything and can't wait till the leg is 100% (6 to 12 months) so I can do it again.

What do you do for your fix??

Erik — Sun, 20 Nov 2005 23:16:29 GMT

Not much action on this tribe. I go for anything adrenaline producing. What is everyone into? I'm into cross country hang gliding. I ususally have a goal in mind and occasionally land there, but not always. If it's not as good a day as I thought, I land short, if it's better, I'll keep going. I have a set of powerisers on the way, I'll let you know if I break anything important. They're jumping stilts you can do flips in. There's a poweriser tribe if you're interested. Check out www.skyrunners.com. freefalling intrigues me, but it's so expensive for such a short time in the air. My longest flight lasted over seven hours, but usually two hours is about avarage. I have seen a fiberglass set of tiny wings you can strap on and jump from an airplane with. THAT sounds pretty fun. So sing out and tell everyone what floats your boat.

Anyone else out there just look at different buildings some times and think "Man that would be an awesome climb". Or is it just me..

Wondering...what exactly do the tribe members here do to get THEIR adrenaline? (You see, there is a disturbing lack of messages to read here...I've read the moderator's post, but what's with everyone else?)

Junkie in need of a fix...

Mon, 22 Dec 2003 14:16:47 GMT

Ok, so the race season is over until next summer and I am too broke to barrel down the slopes on my board. Help! What do I do? Where can I get a cheap A-fix (besides leaning back in my chair here and balancing it at the point before it falls back"?

Extreme Mountain Biking

Hangman's Joke — Thu, 06 Apr 2006 01:20:51 GMT

OK, so being the resident noob, I'm here annoy with infectiously stupid posts.

Anyone else here into extreme mountain biking?
Downhill, X-Country etc?

I'm looking to ride with some people in the London area.
For fellow Brits, I usually do the Epping Forest run.

Any non-Brits; tell me your horror stories of how you stacked your nuts across the handlebars trying to flip out a 50ft gap!

Bridge Swingers (London U.K)

Hangman's Joke — Thu, 06 Apr 2006 01:17:04 GMT

I got the idea after watching The Lost Boys.
Remember the scene where they hang off the bridge as a train thunders overhead?
I did it with a few friends here in London and all I can say is, what a rush!

It's best done from a height and helps if you can find something soft to land in, unless you're uber-manly and are on a death wish.

There's a bridge that runs across the Thames in London city centre.
Any Brits that know the South Bank, will know the bridge outside of the Embankment; well, it's all been rebuilt but there are plenty of places to do it across the Thames.

Other variations and the more common, is to get harnessed up and tie the rope to the edge of the bridge and then throw yourself outwards and swing through the viaduct.
It's a blast.

I recommend it to all you adrenal junkies!

Cost of AFF?

Lyanne — Mon, 04 Oct 2004 15:05:38 GMT

Hello,
I recently went skydiving for the first time and absolutely fell in love with it! I want to do the AFF course but I'm not sure how much it should cost. I've looked up a number of places and prices but I was wondering, from those of you experienced jumpers what a reasonable price would be to do the course?

Pismo / Oceano Dunes gathering info

sky — Sat, 07 Feb 2004 19:11:13 GMT

Pismo / Oceano Dunes info

April 16, 17, 18, (the weekend after Easter) we'll be gathering @ Oceano Dunes (Pismo Beach).

pismofiredrums.tribe.net

I recently flew up and scouted the area from the air, and it's a really great place for us to have the gathering.

I've also heard positive things from several other people who have been there for other gatherings.

I spoke at length with the rangers about the regulations there and fires and fire spinning are allowed.

There are restrooms at several locations along the beach and even a couple of places back in the "dunes"

Access is easy and at low tide ( I'll post the tide times later) you can , and I have personally done this myself , drive any normal car on the beach as long as you stay off the dry sand.

We have the obvious choice to camp on the beach or we can trek a bit back into the dunes. It would be kool to make our camp further back in the dunes and be a bit more private, but you'll need 4 wheel drive in the soft sand.

There is a guy that takes people on tours of the dunes that we could throw a few $$ to and he'll get us wherever we want to camp. (anybody 4wd equipped?)

Also there is an outfit that has 18ft fully equipped camping trailers that sleep 6 people.

They are $95 per nite and if you don't have towing capabilities, they'll drop it off and pick it up where ever you want on the beach for $50.
They have a furnished kitchen, shower, toilet, heater, and awning.

Can't imagine doing this and certainly not suggesting it, but, there are also some reasonable motels very near by if you're really not into camping. (definitely not a suggestion, just covering as many options as possible)

You can obviously set up camp wherever you like, but it works really well to set up in a big circle. Parking the vehicles on the outside provides a wind break with the center area for an open fire pit and spinning and drumming.

It's is a $10 per vehicle (not per person) charge to camp in the dunes. There's no other charge than that, but there is a big fine if you don't have an over nite pass.

I know many of you have already joined firedrums which was originally created to be the Pismo gathering info site.
But that site quickly evolved into a more general events and happenings site and is serving that purpose well.

So now we've started this site specifically for the Pismo gathering.
I know there are many more people interested in this gathering so PLEASE let everyone you can know about this tribe and take a minute to join.

And if you have any info, suggestions or ideas, please post them to this site.
