You made the decision above what I assume is your hard deck, kudos! Hey Bob, Yeah, the hard deck is 2500 and I was pulling at 3000. I posted a thread on NATCA net to see how many controllers are jumping. I've got 1 response so far. I talked with Mike Hull about getting back into the LR arena. Verderamo asked me if I would 2nd seat some arbitrations and I said sure. I'll keep you posted.

I am sure this is just an omission in your account, but how did the reserve open? pulled reserve handle, RSL or AAD fire??? Sorry I didn't specify but I cut away from the main and pulled the reserve handle. I'm sure the RSL had the reserve out before I pulled the handle but I was taught to look at the cut away handle and take it in both hands, then look at the reserve handle. Pull the cut away while looking at the reserve and then pull the reserve.

It's amazing how calm you can be when your life depends on it. Tell me about it. Also, your perspective on certain things like work and other shit that doesn't really matter get re-arranged real quick.

I, too, had a cut away on my 16th jump. I guess we could call it sweet sixteen? Naaaaa!!! Did you find your handles and bag afterward? Yes, all 3 so I bought 3 cases of beer!

Emerald Coast Skydiving is 20 miles west of Pensacola, FL. on the gulf coast. White sand beach jumps to the Flora-Bama and a lot of really nice, laid back folks.

On Sat. Aug. 28, I was doing a hop n pop at 5500. My canopy deployed but the left toggle went up through the gromet on the slider. When I went to release the brakes, I pulled down and the right side released but the left side knotted up on the riser on the top side of the slider. I tried to pull it back through but it became more entangled and the knot got tighter. I tried to steer with the rear riser but I could not stop the slow spin. I tried a practice flair and it turned and twisted and I decided I could not make a safe landing with the main canopy. I decided at 3,000 to cut away and landed on the reserve. I would encourage every student to continue to review your malfunction procedures and practice them before every jump. I was lucky to have great instructors that constantly pounded into my head total/partial malfunctions and insisted I go throught the motions each time. Though I was scared at having to cut away, the procedure came naturally and I was confortable in my decision and actions. Thanks to a drop zone (Emerald Coast Skydiving) that provides quality training and instructors that insist on learning things right, I can look forward to jumping again this weekend.

If you want a personalized plate get one. I wouldn't worry about what others think. If it makes you happy and doesn't hurt others, go for it.
