Gonzalo, the true is that you must leave enough room between you and the tandem. any way you pass about 200 Mts. from the tandem, far away from a collision. may be the big error is not send the tandem first is let you goes with out some one controlling the time that you leave between your prior partner. you can hit a belly formation or any one in the air until you can control your body in free fall, i remmeber you that free fly is not goes any where in your back thinking that you are in head down.
