lisamariewillbe 1 #26 October 26, 2006 I made my first jump in Saint Marys GA. Not only did I have to do a tandem, its what I wanted to do as well. Had I only been offered an A.F.F. I would not have gone. Heres my first AFF. Second picture is when they asked if I was ready for a solo. I just stared for a few seconds and said "uhhh okay"Sudsy Fist: i don't think i'd ever say this Sudsy Fist: but you're looking damn sudsydoable in this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #27 October 26, 2006 QuoteWas I swimming or skydiving? I never got the photo that was taken of me on my first S/L (taken by some out-of-towners who took the class just to do one jump ... and they never emailed me the photos), but I'm sure I looked about like that. I don't think there was much of an arch ... I remember more of a "holy shit I just let go of an aircraft in flight and I'm skydiving oh wait I was supposed to arch or something well now it's too late" feeling.

livendive 8 #29 October 26, 2006 QuoteMine. I'm pretty sure I've had that same ridiculous smile on every subsequent jump. I think it's evolved a bit. I'd offer proof, but I don't have it on this machine. This ain't from my first jump... it was taken right before my second or third. Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

lisamariewillbe 1 #30 October 26, 2006 That was a skyvan, and since it was my first AFF I had to back up to the door and just hop back... i had no idea that it was "cool" esp since I HATE planes. If you love CASAs does that mean your gonna hit SSM ? They have a CASA this weekend.

Conundrum 1 #33 October 26, 2006 QuoteQuoteI don't have any pictures of my tandem on this computer, but here's my first AFF That's an amazing picture Chelle, who took it? I can't remembr to be honest, it was a few years ago. I think it was Vinny at Perris, though. If I had to guess.
