(Former) Tandem Students who got Video:

Recommended Posts

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.

Where's option 4: My TM did not make any freefall gestures or "antics" and just sat there and let me enjoy freefall for the first timeB|



Fair enough, have you seen a video where they do
"perform" a bit, for want of a better word, and do you prefer the way yours looks or not? 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? ;)

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.
