surely tracking like a mo-fo perpendicular to jump run,untill the planned opening height is just as safe? but getting back up to the formation is the right thing to do?

It is not just as safe because nobody knows where you are.

How about this? What if you're not the only one?

You're on a 10 way, you go low and you can't get back up. You give up and take off.

Your buddy does the exact same thing a few seconds later.... read: the EXACT same thing. B|B|B|

Of course, what are the chances right?

Unnacceptable, that's what they are. I like to do a head count when I can, at break off. If I don't see everyone I was jumping with, I get really nervous for a few seconds until I clear my air. Even then, my spidy-sense tingles as I deploy :P.
