jmpnkramer 0 #1 January 2, 2004 So yesterday I had a wonderful twisted up Eliptical! I made an attempt but to no avail. When I got on the ground someone asked if I had an RSL. I recon the transition was so fast that they thought I did. Not the case though. I owe the Riggers at Paragone again. They are the best and would like to thank them. Ya'll are the best!!!!!!!!!! As for the reason I am not positive. I either got a little offset in the saddle or maybe one of the stoes hung up. Who knows. I do know I ma safe and the gear landed on the DZ.

wzettler 0 #2 January 2, 2004 Glad to hear you are ok! I think when Jesus said "love your enemy" he probably meant don't kill them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
happythoughts 0 #3 January 2, 2004 Right as I dumped, I see you off to my left screaming through 2K. I was in the saddle and looking down, thinking "I'm goin' to talk to him about that, that is too low". I guess since it was your second freefall, it was acceptable.

jumpinjackflash 0 #10 January 3, 2004 Too Cool Kramer. Glad your still with us. Sounds like you did a fine job to me. From a virgin though, I can't resist asking stupid obvious questions. Sorry. Did that make you pucker or what? I'm still at low jump numbers, a ball of freakin drenalin when I land normal. I gotta believe choppin tunes you up like a freaking harp. I'd be a lil tweaked to say the least. Were you chillin like dillon on penicillin? Or wiggin? Don't have to answer this, just a stupid question. Seriously, sounds like you nailed the procedure to me though. peace, jjfIt's a gas, gas, gas... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

QuoteDid that make you pucker or what? Naa I have had 4 regular reserve rides and one as a Tandem Instructor. I have had a bag lock and the others were line twist. The Tandem is another story in itself. QuoteWere you chillin like dillon on penicillin? Or wiggin? I recon I was Chillin. I enjoy the extra adrenalin. I hope I answered to your satisfaction.

jumpinjackflash 0 #12 January 4, 2004 Thanks Man, you are correct, I'm hoping to learn, everyday. Unlike school, I pay very close attention to everything that is said. Especially when it comes to emergency procedures and the like. Thanks for indulging me, seriously, I am always a little skittish when I throw, I'm getting better. I do realize that I could jump a thousand or more times and never have to cutaway. I also realize it could happen tomorrow, so, as a newbie, that makes me a little skittish when I think about it. Though I work on my procedures constantly! blues JackIt's a gas, gas, gas... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
