My AFF Cat B Jump

[Calvinchu49 0]

Hey everyone,

So I just finished my weekend filled with fun skydiving. Can't believe I'm really here now, it's only been 3 days since my first tandem. Anyways, my instructor today Nick Armstrong had video of me for my Cat B jump, and I can't appreciate him enough because I learned so much seeing myself from this angle. I completely get why the Arch is stressed so much. At 1:00, my instructor gives me the signal to arch and I can physically see myself fall lower into a smooth belly-down position.

Just wanted to share this for anyone else new like me.... ARCH!!!!!

Good job!

My reality and yours are quite different.
I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

I think im missing something.

In US are there different categories for the AFF course itself? ive only heard of the B cat as in B category license eg:50 jumps+ ect..

Congrats on the jump you looked really stable up there, how many jumps do you have left on your AFF course?

section 4 describes Catagory A-H as the student program to get a license. In this case B is normally jump number 2 in AFF.

Thanks everyone, I believe I have 5 more jumps for my AFF? Can't wait for this weekend to come around... I've been eating potatoes all week to save $$.... Totally worth it.
