Static Line Round Chute Jumping W/AKA
poocheod replied to poocheod's topic in Skydivers with Disabilities
LOL, No, no, not an expert but I did learn a few things, like landing on my prosthetic side is better than landing on my sound side, can you believe that? I used an ESK with the Weight-Lock feature turned to nil and a VSP foot w/ a double-socket that absorbed most of the impact on PLF. Looking to add more jumps both Static and Free, now that I have done the static I will be hunting for the free fall school, if I don't get it while in the Navy I will pick it up on the outside. Cheers all! Pooch -
Static Line Round Chute Jumping W/AKA
poocheod replied to poocheod's topic in Skydivers with Disabilities
All, I have just recently graduated from the Navy's Static Line parachute school. I am recently (two years) an Above the Left Knee amputee from Iraq. I am posting this so that if there are other disabled jumpers, military or civilian that want any advice or have any questions I'd be more than happy to share my experiences, please be patient as I am still in the Navy active duty and may take some time before responding to any posts. Happy Jumping
