Cloudfly 0 #1 December 1, 2013 Hi all, I'm Chad. I'm new and just started jumping this week. I passed my first 3 AFF jumps this past week at Skydive the Farm and hope to finish my AFF within the next 2 weeks. I absolutely love it! Even though I get scared to death everytime I've went up. I've enjoyed it. Even my crappy landings, it's all worth it. Well just wanted to introduce myself and any advice anyone has about anything would be greatly appreciated :) have a good day.

Divalent 89 #10 December 3, 2013 CloudflyI have already been invited to the boogie! im gonna try to get my A before then but if i cant i am still coming for the beer and the knowledge! thank you for the welcome... Greetings fellow Farm Animal! As long as your budget allows it, I don't see why you couldn't finish your A license in the 3+ months before StPatty's rolls around. But in any event, the Farm staff will be down there and you'd be able to do just about anything at the boogie that you'd be able to do at the Farm to finish your A. (Although you might want to get your packing skills completed before hand; packing space is at a premium, and whoever is helping you learn might not be able to give you the amount of time needed.)

elleof8ed 0 #13 December 3, 2013 Hi Chad! I'm new, too. In fact, you and I are in the same boat. I'm also a few levels into AFF and loving it, but wondering when I'm going to get the hang of this landing thing. Welcome! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
