Description:

The rock was dry but the mud was still a bit slick, 3 jumpers. He went last. I saw him exit.
The exit looked unusual, too head low and not far away.
Shortly after exit there was a jolt in his body position (2 seconds in). I suspect he clipped the ledge with his feet.
His body was thrown head down and he remained in that position until he impacted with nothing out about 7-8 seconds later right above the tree ledge.
At this point the canopy came out and he had another wall strike before tumbling and coming to rest on the talus.
