G'day,
21/05/09 was the date of my last skydive; bad accident on 124 Mamba. L1 Fractured, L2 Dislocated, L3 Burst Fracture. After 6 weeks hospital and some titanium in my spine I am luckily walking and getting fit again. I currently live and breath physio, the pool and the gym with the sole purpose of getting fit and running again so can return to my passion and job which is skydiving - nothing in my life is more important bar breathing. Its looking like my return will be late 2010.
I am just looking for some feedback from other skydivers who have had similar injuries and returned to the sport. Things like, were you able to do tandems? What level of back pain do you get? Any hinderances? Any advice?
Cheers.
