AFFI 0 #26 May 30, 2007 QuoteThe tragedy is a 700 jump wonder stroking his own ego and purposely misleading a newbie gullible enough to take it seriously. Totally! I may have been on the receiving end of some of this myself when I was in the newbie, but nothing with such a blatant disregard for safety! Okay, douche it is!Mykel AFF-I10 Skydiving Priorities: 1) Open Canopy. 2) Land Safely. 3) Don’t hurt anyone. 4) Repeat… Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
someday 0 #27 May 30, 2007 alright thanks for confirming somethings. i do admit i learn something new everyday in this sport i do look at my alti all the time, but ill try to train myself. i should probably get an audible once i can afford a helmet to hold an audible.. i do quite a bit of looking around at airspace to make sure im clear for my lame-duck turns i also do quite a bit of altimeter watching Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FallingDuck 0 #29 May 30, 2007 An audible will work for him, but a visual is something that 90% of us use. And as far as I know you are not wrong. As long as you do a quick wave off before you pull another jumper shouldn't have a problem with it. If someone not with you is close enough to be hurt by an early opening they are following you too quickly out the door. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
