Waiting for first AFF

Recommended Posts

Finally set the date for first jump and realized that although its at the end of the month its still all i think about.

Not sure if thats deserves a :( or a :)
Why not?
My direction in life is up...then down again REALLY REALLY FAST!!!

Congrat! Have you done a tandem jump already, or are you going to do AFF without doing a tandem?

can do nothing for him."

Thanks.
Ive had some flight time in a vertical wind tunnel and its made me feel ALOT more comfortable about the actual jump.
Its comforting to know i can already fly stable on my belly.
One less thing to worry about.

You'll do great.I'm sure tunnel time helps alot!!
I jump before there was "tunnels" so I had to learn to be stabile at 120 mph:)

Just relax,listen to your instructor and before you know it you'll be spending incredible amounts of $$$$ for your new addictionB|

WELCOME! It deserves a (!), as it is about the eager nervous anticipation of a beginning. You will love it! It can be a sensory avalanche of sorts, as you try to remember all the stuff in sequence, but if nothing else, try to look UP and about, BREATHE, and enjoy! That first canopy ride down alone is worth the price of admission! As a two-skill sport (body flight, and canopy flight) you get two thrills in one jump!

Let us know how it went! GET THE VIDEO!
