AFFI 0 #1 August 31, 2007 This poll is targeted at skydivers who made Tandem Skydives and got video of their tandem. If your tandem instructor made silly gestures during your skydive did you or DISLIKE they way it turned out on your video? This poll is related to the “TM favourite freefall gestures” thread in the instructors forum.

iluvtofly 0 #3 August 31, 2007 My TM who is also the DZO was singing the Oscar Mayer Weiner song in freefall. If you watch you can read his lips. Today he sings Hong Kong Fooey during tandems. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you think the TI covering his eyes or making a funny face would have added or detracted from your video? Would you have even noticed during the freefall?

popsjumper 2 #5 August 31, 2007 I did a tandem a few years ago. Unbeknownst to me, it was the TM's 5th ride. We potato-chipped the entire freefall. Playing the video back at the DZ, one of the guys in the back made the comment: "It looks like two bugs fucking." TM nickname: Bugfucker He didn't make any "gestures" and, in hindsight, I appreciate that.My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

psipike02 0 #7 August 31, 2007 My TM gave thumbs up and did the superman pose and stuff but other than that he let me enjoy the freefall. I liked the poses and stuff he did, it added to the video a little bit.Puttin' some stank on it. ----Hellfish #707---- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
