Learnt to skydive @ Jbay

Most memorable skydive:
My first jump after completing AFF - I rolled out of the plane like a bowling ball and struggled to get stable, but Heath's voice echoed in my head, reminding me to 'trust the arch.' Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to save me from a bushy landing and gaining my koala crest.
