Darrell will be missed. I will always remember him fixing up my pilot chute and checking my pins on my first several base jumps. Rip my friend.

Anyone know the height of the "A" and what type of canopy he was using?

I'm glad I got to go on one last ride with you Darrell. Damn it, one of the good ones for sure. He was always a pleasure to jump with, I am really going to miss him.

Re: [skydveraz] Incident in Casa Grande
Does anyone know if this had been jumped before or was there any kind of malfunction that caused this or what? The reports don't give much info.

Sorry to hear this.

RIP, he was too young. My condolences to his family and loved ones.

How close are the power lines to the primary lz and any alternates? Why did he end up there?

Re: [Ten48] Incident in Casa Grande
If anyone can PM me details it would be nice. I've been friends with Darrell in San Antonio for several years and would like to know what really happened. I've done many free fly jumps with Darrell and kind of came up through the ranks with him. There are rumors about what happened but no first hand info.

Darrell I'll never forget the few jumps we made together, you will always be an awesome dude! Those nights in south Texas are my favorite memories no question. I'm sorry it ended so soon-- we're all jealous you left doing something you loved. BSBD -Ben
