airdweller 0 #1 June 25, 2004 So yesterday I did a solo FF out of an otter. I was holding on the bar at the top of the door, and watching the pair go before me. With good separation I jumped out the door doing a reverse flip. As I'm exiting I feel this big THUMP on the back of my head. After that the jump continued without incident. Any way thanks BoneHead for keeping my head safe. I'm just glad my helmet was on my head instead of in my gear bag.------------------------------------------------------ "From the mightiest pharaoh to the lowliest peasant, who doesn't enjoy a good sit?"

cvfd1399 0 #4 June 25, 2004 I always thought of that on a reverse flip out the door. That is why I only do front flip or a nestea plunge Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tell them it's like a seatbelt. By itself, it doesn't do magic, but it's part of a system. -=-=-=-=- Pull. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
