so what happened??



Broke a 4 way over a Balloon Fest demo site, tracked and pulled...felt like I hit a Mack Truck that someone had carelessly parked at 2500 feet. :ph34r:

Chopped after the the 2nd spin, delayed to get past another jumper and unpacked the reserve...deployed the flag and finished the demo...;)


I would like to thank the makers of ADVIL! :P

Going in for a complete inspection...harness ring didn't 'appear' deformed, but I only inspected it rather quickly with one hand, had a real cold one in the other! ;)

Yep, kinda like the last airshow demo I did... had to exit at 1800 feet due to cloud cover, our flag jumper had a really big one. Even he landed before they finished the national anthem! :o:S:ph34r:

Nope...slowed down as always, but I broke my long time rule about jumping someone else's pack-job. :S



The other guy said he 'heard' me coming before he saw me go by! :D:D:D
