Good result.

+1 Nicely Done! And again, I applaud your decision not to name names until all other courses of action were followed. Win-Win and nobody got tossed under the “Virtual Bus”.

Chuck… hope I spelled everything correctly this time. Blues.

Nice job. A good friend is the one who tells you to pull your head out of your ass. You're obviously a good friend.

(And good on you for going out on a limb and calling the DZO. I'm glad to hear that was his reaction.)

Thanks, even though I feel like a rat. Never told on anyone my whole life. Its for the best though. Maybe my friend will realize he owes me a beer one day, when I tell him I got some people to look after him at the time.

Thanks for the clarification billvon.

So, the conversation went well.

JerseyShawn...my hat is off to you AND the DZO.
Good stuff! We need more concerned friends like you in this sport.

My reality and yours are quite different.
I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

Send your post to your friend. Talk to him and try to share your concerns. There are some people that you just cannot teach and your friend may or may not be one but you should still try. If that doesn't work talk to his local S&TA and have him talk to your friend.

The culture of skydiving has changed for the worse and our losses will accelerate if something doesn't change. Skydiving is very similar to motorcycle riding. Hi speed motorcycles and immaturity will nearly always end in injury or death. Skydiving with head down flying and swooping is the same.
