ladyskydiver 0 #2 October 4, 2004 **knocks on wood** Luckily, I haven't been severely injured. Everyone that I've talked to that has says that you should be able to run and jump before trying to skydive again.Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you smile. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YahooLV 0 #4 December 16, 2004 having recovered from injuries this year also, you may begin jumping when you can run with out pain, and you KNOW you can land out in shitty territory and make it! It's the landing out that still bugs me.http://www.curtisglennphotography.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BASE813 0 #5 December 26, 2004 no one can tell you when you will feel 100% ready to jump on it again. I am into month 8 after injury (shattered tib, fib, severe dislocation of ankle, 3 operations including bone graft, 15 screws and pins and 6" thick plate) and still am unable to jump - I was non weight baring for over 6 months and am doing PT and gym work most days. Dont rush and do ALOT of work on yourself........... One day you will know when you are ready - dont set unrealistic goals. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
