Shoulder Dislocations while Skydiving

[Beverly 1]

My AFF student dislocated his shoulder on exit doing L1.
The wind was quite strong and it came out on exit.

He has a history of a weak shoulder and had a operation on it.

I need to know if anyone has experienced this on exit or while skydiving and what the ramifications were?

Did you/they stop skydiving, have an operation, strap it?
Has anyone carried on skydiving after an injury like this?

ask Marios who posts around here (sometimes). He still jumps, and manages to dislocate/relocate his shoulder in freefall, with a strapped shoulder

thanks.

That stuff makes me queezy.

I nearly gagged and passed out when I saw him standing on the ground with oen arm hanging longer than the other...
