Jabeln79 0 #1 August 27, 2001 Hey All, So yesterday i just finally learned how to pack and didnt have time to jump my own pack job. SO today i get off work around 3 and head on out to the DZ, A little over an hour later i get there and manifest for the next King Air load So they tell me i am going to jump come down pack and go jump my own pack job, O.k. if you say so.. so i did a solo jump to start nothing exciting aside from the usually jumping out of a plane.. and down i come, and hear i go.. tiem to pack. well i did have supervision just to make sure i didnt do anything stupid and i get it all packed and go to manifest, Then they tell me i am doing a 4 way Cool. i have only done 3 ways so far.. so we go over a dirt dive and were going to attempt a double falcon. Ive never even heard of this before but hey it sounds fun.. so we go through the routine and up we go. i do a 2 way linked exit and the other 2 are doing poised exit on each side of the person i was linked to. "ready, set, Go" and out the door we go... It was a very stable exit and all docked rather quickly so we do the first point i swing out a little wide but come right back and so it went on my first falcon and we just barely connected the last point for the double, we probably shouldnt have attempted the last dock we were a little low i remember lookin at my alti right after we released and it was at 3900 instead of the original break off alti of 45 but problems, SO now i pull the ripcord of the rig i just packed solo for the first time and to my surprise a nice easy, big opening.. and landed it about 5 feet from the center Hoola hoop target.. so my weekend although i only got in 2 jumps i owed 2 cases of beer and had a blast.Blue SkiesJoe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
