Kramer 0 #2 September 12, 2004 Man! Did your student say anything? That looked pretty brutal. It almost looked as though you were above your fully inflated main for a second there...which I would think to be impossible...but the things they can do these days...what with the technology and all...I don't know why I'm still typing... The FAKE KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #4 September 12, 2004 That sucked. Was your student ok? Any complaints about back/neck pain? Icarus tandem main? The only tandem opening I've ever had that was very hard was on an Icarus tandem main.

jerm 0 #11 September 13, 2004 frank!!!! how's are ya? i hope it gets better.. the neck is still... ouch.. course i jumped another full day today...witha nice canopy, tho. to and ser everyone's questions... it was a 384EZ.. the ranch is all sigma rigs... about about 70% sigma mains. the sigmas have always trated me beautifully.. this was a back-to-back where the rig was at the laoding area for me.. not much of a a choice... perfectly regulation vector tandem bands... but as i didn't pack it, i dunno how well/large the stows were done. as for the student.... said his thighs were a bit sore, but i think he made out better being more loose, where as i was expecting one thing and got quite another.... the neck is being held together with massage and buprofin... probably shouldn't be jumping for a few days 'eh? hmmmmm maybe i should call off tomorrow.. gak Landing without injury is not necessarily evidence that you didn't fuck up... it just means you got away with it this time Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reginald 0 #12 September 13, 2004 Ouch...sorry to see that. After a couple of hard openings I'm actually scared of them. It took me a few weeks to recover formt he last one. I hope you are okay and recover quickly."We've been looking for the enemy for some time now. We've finally found him. We're surrounded. That simplifies things."

mr2mk1g 10 #13 September 13, 2004 I'd recomend getting a proper sports massage. Should cost you somthing like $30 and it'll do you the world of good and likely speed your recovery. Whiplash can be an arse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #18 September 14, 2004 An EZ-384 huh? That blows, I'm not a real big fan of that canopy and I've had one get a little snappy on me, but nothing like that.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."
