flyhi 24 #3 January 9, 2002 And what happens to the raft after everyone deploys? Is it hot in here, or am I crazy? - Charles Mansonflyhi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #4 January 9, 2002 Fairly simple if everyone hangs on the outside. We lost the two people on the left side after a couple of seconds so I had to move to the middle of the back and Mark had to try and slide to the center of the front.The hard part is the exit. If the exit goes wrong, you lose the raft at 13000 ft I want to touch the sky, I want to fly so high ~ Sonique Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #5 January 9, 2002 The one we used at the AOT boogie this past september was lost on the jump. It fell to the earth in a neighborhood, and some punk kid stole it and refused to give it back. Whats funny, though, is that someone must have seen it flipping towards the ground and the canopies in the distance and called 911. We had an ambulance show up to the DZ with reports of a bounced jumper...Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.-General George Patton- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
