gemini 0 #26 April 29, 2003 Rebecca: Your jump partner was very concerned until he saw you turn and set up for your off landing. Many jumpers at your experience level think they have to make it back to the DZ at all costs and end up getting hurt. Good decision on your part! Now, who was spotting before you climbed out?

QTPi 0 #28 April 29, 2003 I jump at a small DZ so someone usually will watch where you go down and come to pick you up. I landed out this weekend on my 100th!

masher 1 #30 April 30, 2003 It's something you play on a piano... :) . But seriously, it's a pull up cord. You use it to close the flaps on you container.-- Arching is overrated - Marlies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
