MrDerek 0 #1 April 9, 2011 Hi everyone. Just joined. Only done a tandem jump before. It was amazing so decided to take the sport up. On a mission to get licensed this year and training for that will hopefully start in May but that hasn't been confirmed yet. It will be static line training and just a bit nervous about that since every jump will be solo. Cheers, Derek Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flyerer 0 #2 April 9, 2011 Welcome. No worries. It's just like a tandem without the monkey on your back... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrDerek 0 #4 April 9, 2011 Well got to be honest and say the monkey did look after me. :) He was a top bloke. Hear you though, the tandem jump involved too much man touching for my liking. Nervous but also excited, and that's what it's all about. Pleased to meet you Flyerer. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
