GraficO 0 #51 April 26, 2006 my old friend and skydiving mentor once said..."If you're hurt and you recover and think you're ready to jump again... wait one more week." GraficOGraficO "A Mind is a terrible thing to taste." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Orange1 0 #52 April 26, 2006 Quote It'll be 9 weeks by then and the doctor said 2 months, so I'm thinking positive.....or I'm in severe denial. 2 months is very short to get cleared after a break. You must be very young I presume he'll check the xrays before giving you the final go-ahead?Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArchMohr 0 #53 April 27, 2006 Great advice.....it reminds of advice I got about flaring. When you think you're going to flare too low wait a couple more seconds. I have flare issues and was flaring high. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArchMohr 0 #54 April 27, 2006 I'm 31....don't know if that's young anymore! I was very surprised to hear 2 months as well. I was fearful of him saying never again. I will practice a lot of PLF's off chairs first and I'm sure our S & TA's will be very careful before giving me their ok to jump again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
