My JM told me it was an outstanding aff1 jump and i had the absolute time of my life im still getting over it. I had pretty bad line twists which meant i couldnt get my head behind the risers to check my canopy but im glad i did because now i know how easy they are to get out of Bring on AFF2 and next weekend!!! Heres a journal of it, i hope to keep it updated after every jump. http://www.freeopendiary.com/entryview.asp?authorcode=D201849&entry=10001&mode= Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Shawndiver 0 #8 December 27, 2003 Congrats on saving your own life Brodes!
