dmcoco84 5 #26 September 30, 2005 Nice! Yeah, I’d say I’m a decent free flyer but I have no dive training. Only a little gymnastics but it was years ago. I'm gonna get to the rec center a few times and use the 1 meter board and hopefully a local gymnastics gym (hoping for a trampoline and harness deal) and if I feel comfortable I might throw a gainer at BD. I'm hoping to get at least 2-3 more jumps before BD too (that is if I beg my pops enough to ground crew for me again or if my buddy feels like climbing How bout it Josh!!). I jumped an A from the 900 platform Tuesday so if I get a few more at that height, that will make me much more comfortable (than I am right now) with that delay and sub terminal freefall. We’ll see!! And thanks again everyone for your help on Slider up packing. I did my first slider up Tuesday with just indirect control and it work fine. Not worried about it any more.

dmcoco84 5 #28 September 30, 2005 Thanks Tree! Well you know what’s really funny! I made the best and worst lists at BD last year for my first two BASE jumps. My first jump I jumped to far out (took a couple steps) and went HD but recovered pretty well, so I have experienced instability big time (you can see the jump on the triax boogie video at the beginning of carnage section on the bottom right I believe) Then I made two “best of” photo’s in vertical visions stock pictures on my second jump. Here is my second jump – 12 pics - http://www.vertical-visions.com/gallery/BD2004/0006-2402/BD04_0369.html But this year I’m just hoping for best of pictures!
