Viking 0 #1 July 29, 2001 Those and others including Michele's Graduation Jump/landing Now for the bad news Nelson (Sinister69) broke his Tibia and his Fibia in one of his legs on landing. Apparently he either flared very late or did not at all he was flying a Spectre(sp) 190. Albatross has the details b/c well he was there and i wasn't. I know he is stable and druged up like you wouldn't beleive!!! and that they had to do minor surgory and that pins and screws and plates and stuff or going in. Estamate for his next jump is in about 9 months or so. anyway it was damn fun meeting you all and hope to see ya again soon when i have my A and learn from the air not sitting on a packing table CONGRATS MICHELE ON YOUR AWSOME LVL8 Remember when Sex was safe and skydiving was Dangerous?

PalmettoTiger 1 #5 July 29, 2001 I was told soon after I started that if I stayed in this sport long enough, I would know someone with a tib-fib. After one year, two months, and 23 days, the count is up to three already! Sorry to hear about your accident Sin. Stay strong, stick with the rehab, and soon enough you'll be so busy flirting with the nurses and therapists you won't realize your 9 months are up!Besides, you know what they say about skydivers with tib-fib fractures: they've got more pins than a bowling alley... but bigger balls too.
