tricky 0 #1 July 26, 2004 I'm going to be visiting Texas for a month or so here soon and I was looking for a RW coach to jump with me a few times... So, who knows an awesome coach?

If you asked Rob Laidlaw (SDU head hancho) or many of the other SDU coaches and many of the AFF-I's and bigway organizers, they would tell you to talk to Mark Futch. Mark Futch is mfdammit here on the forums (he doesn't post much) and you can reach him through Single Helix (http://www.single-helix.com). Point blank, he's a badass and he's freak'n gifted coaching folks in SDU and RW skills.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

There are always bellyjumpers putting together good dives for people with all sorts of jump numbers. There are also plenty of coaches who will give you tons of good info to help you out.Blue Skies!!!

If Rob is not available, find Mike Westbrook or Rick Duran - they are always at DZ. There are many others but they are usually busy working with students or training with their teams. Call DZ in advance and they will hook you up with somebody. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
