The acronyms "RW" and "CRW" stand for "Relative Work" and "Canopy Relative
Work", respectively.
Relative Work is what two or more jumpers do while in freefall when making
the various linked formations that you have no doubt seen.
Canopy Relative Work is similar, but as the name suggests, is done while
under canopy. If you have seen two or more canopies linked together, they were
doing "CRW".
