Here is an in-depth review of Brian Germain's online coaching service for skydivers (both beginners and advanced), which I've been a member of for a year. I'm not getting any commission for this, and no one asked me to write it. The Network is nothing like I thought it would be, and I wish a review like this was available when I first heard of it. I would have joined much earlier! Hopefully this helps others make a more informed decision. Questions, feedback, and grammar police welcome! Happy to add and clarify things. Warning: it's *very* in depth :-). Maybe read the first two sections and then skim all the headings to see what details you're interested in. https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vSf8548z4FrC7PJ5dKoXbRpdYz9CwWq8WywXRvBHRT4T2sUN3appsa7FSQJMNSfnXjxqOLZAsOk6kzj/pub

Hi! I'm looking for stories of canopy collisions/ wraps/ entanglements ABOVE 2000 feet where both skydivers stay conscious after impact and NOT involving CRW. Anyone know of any? What I tried already: I read all the USPA incident reports in the canopy collision category and found only low-altitude collisions, CRW, or people going unconscious. I then did a Google search and a search in the Incidents section of this forum. The problem is so many results are low-altitude (pattern) collisions that I'd have to spend time going through them all, and I can't think of a way to filter those out. The purpose is a discussion of whether or not some simplified CRW-style emergency procedures (such as these) would be useful for all skydivers to know. Thanks!

All but one of these links are broken for me. Anyone have some updated ones? :) My contribution that I found randomly: https://britishskydiving.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/British-Skydiving-CF-Coaching-Manual-1.pdf
