cave_nate 0 #1 May 31, 2005 hey all got the AFP finally done over last weekend. So one the way down from the last AFP jump the my jump master was unusually quite on the radio. Just heard him say, “Nice jump”. Then I knew that I passed the final jump. A great feeling. For all those out there working their way though the AFP, AFF or what ever progression you DZ uses, stick with it. yea I had to repeat 2 jumps, and yea it is expensive, but the first jump on your own is just like wow. No worries about doing allsorts of funky maneuvers in the air, just a freaking great skydive. Make sure to hang around the DZ after graduating, great way to meet all sorts of great folks. cross keys is a awesome dropzone. Now onto getting a “A” license... -Nate .

skydivermom 0 #4 June 6, 2005 Great job! It's encouraging to read someone else's successes. I'm starting my training in mid-June and I'm very nervous. How many more jumps do you have to do to be a licensed skydiver after AFF? I'm obviously very new to all of this.Mrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cave_nate 0 #6 June 6, 2005 it is 25 jumps min, but talking with folks that can be more. need to do all the requirements for the A license and also have fun jump between all the coach jumps to mix it up. Had some one tell me that some folks get so into getting their license that they lose track of “this is freaking fun” :-) -Nate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
