Way to go!
You remind me of one of the survivors of the Perris Twin Otter crash, who returned to skydiving after losing control of his legs.
On a practical note. foam padding on your bum might help a little bit to reduce landing jolts, but you should seriously investigate some of the air cushions developed by para-gliders. Some of those cushions are two feet thick. They absorb shock by slowly venting air during impact.
You could easily strap a para-gliding cushion to a skydiving harness. The challenge would be to install an extra handle that would hold it closed in freefall, but allow it to inflate after you inflate your parachute.
I am thinking of a yellow cable that laces the cushion closed ... similar to cutaway cables on wingsuits or two-handled BOCs for AFF students.

I like that idea RR, anything that reduced the chance of injury gets my attention. Ill look into that....
If your after a bit of a laugh, this is something else i do http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNmK2fM4_F4

Dale,
After having seen your entire presentation, heard the passion in your voice, met your instructors...wow.
What a series of challenges that most of us never would have considered. Congrats to you for researching so you could teach your instructors so that they could teach you.
Very inspirational.
Intensely educational.
Looking forward to getting you into that wingsuit!
