RichM 0 #1 July 28, 2003 Yesterday a Turbolet with 15 jumpers flew to the 100 acre Bewl Bridge Reservoir and we all got out. The wind was about 10 knots and I setup a 90 into a downwind swoop. I got the altitude and swoop just right and came howling across the water next to the recovery boat. I started to extend my left foot to toe drag the water and I can only assume my foot hit a wavelet, becuase my face followed a millisecond after. Like a skimming stone I bounced up and got my feet caught in my lines, I couldn't see the water so I guess I was upside down. And about 3 seconds later I skidded across the top of the water and splashdown. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE The at the end of the day I pushed the (dry) dz controller into 2ft of water for a laugh and got grounded for a week.
