skymama 37 #5 August 30, 2011 Aw, sorry to hear that! You certainly aren't the first jumper to have an ankle injury from a landing (I have my own!) and you won't be the last. Just heal up and come back as soon as you can!She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
