IJskonijn 38 #2 September 12, 2017 No one on an internet forum can seriously say that it's no biggie and no worries. If you have any concern regarding your health, go ask your doctor, not a bunch of internet weirdos. As for how to keep motivated after AFF, that's more interesting. Of course, there's the innate awesomeness of jumping out of an airplane. Next, there's all sorts of stuff to learn and do and achieve after AFF. Go ask for your A-license progression card (or whatever your local equivalent). Talk with an instructor/coach before each jump asking what excersizes you can best do this jump. Start learning to pack your parachute. Start learning canopy control (there's likely a course near you aimed for new jumpers with little/no canopy experience). The possibilities are near endless! Graduating AFF pretty much means you know just enough not to get yourself killed, and now the real fun can start! I'm still learning new things pretty much every jump, even after 800+ jumps.

DJL 232 #3 September 12, 2017 Also, don't land on your butt. Ask your instructors about a PLF and why the fuck they didn't show it to you before (wink emoji)."I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
