hey john, i went through all the back issues i had at home, (skydiving as far back as sept, and a couple of parachutist issues too) but i could not find the article i was referring to. all of the other back issues i have are at my trailer at the dz. i'll check into them this weekend .......anyone else out there recall reading about this incident? I do whatever the little voices tell me to......

lizzards!!! it's reptiles my friend! flying reptiles!!! I do whatever the little voices tell me to......

hi john, i recall reading in i think it was parachutist (either that or skydiving) magazing last summer about an incident where the student died and the instrucor survived under a spinning reserve.....i will look through my back issues tonight after work to find the article and get back to you with the details! I do whatever the little voices tell me to......

hey missy! few q's 4 ya.... when are you planning to do the actual attempts, and are canadians allowed to participate? i still have a lot of fine tuning to do on my skills but this summer i plan to cut back on the instructing and focus more on me for a change! still hoping to be the first canadian female AD....if krista doesn't beat me 2 it! all the power 2 her if she does...she is deserving! I do whatever the little voices tell me to......

hey danger! nice to have you in on this forum! i am seriously torn on this subject, i WANT to keep jumping tandems and not have to go back to joe's just to stay current enough to keep my rating jumping sigmas...i don't think it is safe to just do them enough to stay current. (and not that i don't plan to jump at joe's ever again, but the turbines are talkin' to me ya know!) anyways, i figured this is a good opportunity to get some feedback that will help me make an educated decision instead of just acting on my heebejeebees after seeing what i saw with the above mentioned mal! i mean it's not like the sigma's are perfect i have read about accidents and fatalities with them too ya know? oh decisions decisions!!!! I do whatever the little voices tell me to......

thnx kris....never been on one of these forums before, i'm a bit of a dumbass when it comes to this internet stuff!!! I do whatever the little voices tell me to......

greetings from Canada....interested in opinions on tandem gear, i currently have a vector/sigma rating but i have only jumped sigmas and i love them, especially the 375 mains! i'm going to be jumping at a new dz this year that has stong gear...unsure if i want to convert as i don't like the idea of having an out of sequence opening....not that i can't deal but it's one less BIG thing to worry about on an already stressful skydive with the sigmas! seen some reserve mals as well so i guess i'm a bit apprehensive although others that i know that do jump strongs hold high opinions of them. Ted, if your out there...talk to me! i do enjoy doing tandems and i don't want to quit!!! I do whatever the little voices tell me to......
