pinkfairy 0 #1 October 1, 2006 I tried. The dropzone is closed for the winter, none of the other places have rental gear, and I'm planning on downsizing. So I thought, I might as well read up on the theory for my B-certificate test and practice my PLFs. The reading was straightforward, but crashing my feet into a chair doing a PLF on an old mattress was painful. Luckily I'm not seriously hurt, but I'll try outside next time. Rather have people look at me when I do it in a park than kicking that chair again. Well, I need to be able to PLF. I'm going to try a PD 126R.Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet. I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you?

Sockpuppet 0 #2 October 1, 2006 Well if you ever have an off landing into a open-air furniture shop you'll be laughing. ------ Two of the three voices in my head agree with you. It might actually be unanimous but voice three only speaks Welsh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ltdiver 3 #5 October 1, 2006 A PLF saved my life today... I was doing some yard work and the trash can was filled with leaves. You guessed it...I was inside the trash can, jumping up and down on the leaves, packing them so I could fit more inside...when the trash can tipped. I PLF'd a perfect landing and walked away unscathed. Nary a scratch. Practice those PLF's! They could save -your- life someday too. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monkycndo 0 #6 October 1, 2006 Before I even finished reading your post, I knew where you were going. I've done the same thing. Except I didn't know how to PLF then. Ouch.50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
