First night jump - beers!

Recommended Posts

Well what a great weekend. I did my 600th jump on Sat morning, a friendly 3 way flat fly. I jumped my first reserve pack job on the next dive. And I finished off with my first night jump.

I hopped out at 12000ft above Headcorn, the dying embers of a gorgeous sunset still kissed the horizon, and the twinkle of a million lights painted towns and roads on the dark vista below me. I just gently turned watching it all.

Canopy deployment was normal (actually its been improving since Ive been psychopacking my crossfire) and the landing site was easily picked out for a lovely no wind straight in turf surf. And a beer was quickly thrust in my hand.

I love this sport:)
