Chicks Rock skydive boogie!

Been jumping at Chicks Rock a skydive event where theres a lot of girls that are licensed jumpers come and jump there was at least 20 canopies in the air the whole time. Being a newly licensed jumper I was nervous to say the least. it has been soo much fun here are some highlights over the weekend of jumping.

Jumped 3 time day 1 worked on some RW stuff then did some 6 way hybrids soooo much fun. Later that night all the Snohomish jumpers went out to get dinner at a Mexican restaurant that had karaoke and after about 4 margaritas I ended up getting up and singing Celine Dion in front of everyone. Oh yeah and the picture of that plane with the back open, Its called a skyvan and I did a SICK running gainer out of it!

Day 2 jumped 5 times! Did all kinds of stuff like a 10 way speed star and some tracking jumps which have become my favorite! It literally feels like im flying with forward momentum…like im a bird such a weird feeling. Then that night was a HUGE party with a punks and pin up theme. I had a pretty awesome costume. 

Day 3 jumped twice. Me and my friend Niko whose a wingsuiter made a bet which I wont go into details about but..I won so I got to do a rodeo on his back. Flying on top of a wingsuiter is AWESOME.

Day 1…Adventure begins

Well Its begun my journey towards who know where. Life’s a weird thing..In a matter of moments things change, sometimes drastically. I decided since there isnt anything left for me in washington since my family is gone to Hawaii permanently and I am longer committed to anyone lets say. Ive decided to make some changes…

Ive sold and got rid of whatever it is I dont need and pack my life into my car and leave with nothing but the $800 to my name and a plane ticket to Costa Rica. 

For the first day I said my goodbyes and headed out from Marysville WA. Picked up my friend who needed a ride to the airport so on the way down I did that, from there I drove down the coast till I got tired which was somewhere around the middle of Oregon at a rest stop and stayed the night there. It was dark, creepy, and well creepy but I was way too tired to keep going anywhere else. 

Originally the plan was to take a nice trip down the 101 camp out at beaches but my friend convinced me that I should go to this big skydive event down in Elsinore to jump which is past LA…lets just say all I have left is about $500 to my name and a month in costa rica to pay for haha. Living life on impulse I guess.

Im going to be blogging about this adventure im on as often as possible so keep posted to see what im up to.
