Most Memorable Jump:

Tracking event at Dunkeswell where we were flying 8 way groups in proximity to each other with 4 belly flyers and 4 back trackers in each group, all in formation. the groups wuld fly side by side then spilt apart flying away from each other before turning back and crossing over each other. was amazing seeing 8 people go over the top of me then seemingly disapear into the sunset.

Jump #100: Gaining my FF1 cert with Wolf from Bablyon. Attire: Shorts, T-Shirt (the correct skydiving attire)

The twin otter took off and we flew around the Miami-like canals of the beautiful seaside resort: Empuriabrava (Spain), it was the most nervous I have been in an aircraft since AFF level 1. Next to me was Wolf who not is not only an amazing free-flyer but also a free-diver (Google it, its cool!). He looked pretty calm, just another day in the office for him, but me, my #100 jump, my FF1 and 78 was riding on this jump I was bricking it! We were second to leave the plane, my count: out, in, GO! It was frantic, wherever he went, I went. Up/Down/Left/Right and this guy doesnt hang about, before I knew it he gave me a clap, smiled, and two big thumbs up...then BEEP BEEP BEEP I needed to get away from him and quickly! I tracked off on my back and before I rolled I heard the BEEP BEEP BEEP again. It was all over, my whopping (190) canopy inflated and all I could think about was did I do enough to pass? Still the views along the coastline of the Pyrenees to the North and Barcelona to the South were breathtaking as usual. I landed, on the spot (for a change), and walked over the hangar where my friends from the week presented me with an Amstel, Id done it. Even the wolf-man himself gave me five... Simply Amazing!
