PhreeZone 20 #1 March 7, 2005 So far we are up to 6 jumpers that have died in the US just since Jan 1. Eight when we include the 2 fatalities that happened in Hawaii this year. People PLEASE, PLEASE lets start being safer out there. Totally master your canopy before you downsize. Learn and keep practicing BillVon's guidelines. Get some canopy schooling. The fatality reports are getting to be copy and paste. "Low turn to avoid obsticle" seems to be really popular right now Get out and learn how to properly do low turns if needed. Take some extra time with safety day this weekend to sit around and discuss this with the entire DZ. The lives you save could be yours or your buddies.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kai2k1 0 #3 March 7, 2005 6 skydivers and we're just barely past the first quarter. I have a feeling this isn't going to be a good year for us. People please use you head when skydiving.
