trig78 0 #30 May 16, 2010 Quote Nice pack job, want me to tell you what you did wrong? It wasn't me. I've heard stories about his main not opening and than his reserve tangled with the main because he didn't cut away. Apprently he fell through a roof of some hangar or some other structure. Bruised up but nothing serious. At least that was the story. It happened in 2002 I think.facebook.com/trig78 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, Shouting "...holy shit...what a ride!"

Avion 0 #35 May 16, 2010 Q: Why would you want to jump out of a perfectly good airplane? A: Well, at least jumping out of a perfectly good airplane is better than jumping out of a broken one. You don't need a parachute to skydive, you just need one to do it again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackwallace 3 #36 May 16, 2010 Jake "the snake" Cramer "Every time you step out of the airplane you're dead. It's your choice what you do after that." Over the door of the DZ as you left: The sky like the sea is unforgiving of even the slightest mistake. Sparks, talking about team jumping; "You don't have to like the fuckers, they just gotta be fast." In some jump plane: First door on the right, first star on the left. My favorite, when ask what you do: EAT, FUCK, SKYDIVEU only make 2 jumps: the first one for some weird reason and the last one that you lived through. The rest are just filler. scr 316 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It won't save you but it makes it easier to unscrew you out of the ground. A slotted helmet helps too cause we can use a screwdriver. Also raise your hand up. It'll save the watch."
