Injury at Waller?

Recommended Posts

I had two co-workers come up and say "Oh, good, it wasn't you..."

Apparently, a female jumper broke her leg or something at Waller this weekend. It made the news, but I haven't seen anything here or in Incidents.

Anyone know what I'm talking about? How's she doing?

Thanks! I was beginning to think my co-workers were mistaken.

I know a lot of Spaceland jumpers were up at Waller this weekend, so I was extra curious and concerned.

Whoever it is, I hope she's doing OK. [:/]

<<>> to her. :)

This is how rumors get started.
Life flight visited Sunday.



M'kay, so life flight was there. I still don't know who I'm sending vibes to. Is there a reason this info is so hard to come by?

Like I said, it usually gets posted pretty damn fast whenever one of us gets hurt...

This is weird...

Ok, all I know is that her name is Robin.
Take for granted this is second hand info from one of the
jumpers that helped her after the oops.

That's all I know.
I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama

Thanks, Turtle. We're getting a little less vague now. ;)

I only know of one Robin from Spacey, and I'm not familiar with any that might be from Waller. Regardless, <<>> for Robin!!

I'll just sit tight and wait to hear the facts, I guess... :|

The injury was not a local it was one of the visitors, part of an 8 way team. When I inquired about one of her team mates he said that they were treating it as urgent cuz they didn't know if it was a broken femur or pelvis.

Last I heard at night (don't know from who or in what state since a lot of people were drinking by then) she had a dislocated femur and was stable. (really second hand information).

Hello,

I just want to let you guys know that I am doing okay. I tore my adductor and compressed a nerve in my leg. I start physical therapy on Monday and my ortho says that I will be able to compete at Nationals!



WOO-HOO !!

As far as what happened, I was packing and didn't see it so all I know is hard landing.

Glad she's doing well.

P.S. - Nothing to do with night jumps. 2nd round of 8way on Sunday.
