mamajumps 0 #1 November 17, 2006 I have made plans to jump for the first time in nearly 18 months again this weekend. I had a minor injury which is why I stopped jumping, but I NEVER intended to not jump for this long. I was fully healed about a month after the injury. But as a mom of 4 life and everything involved ran off at mach 2 and wham here I am 18 months later and no jumps. I have made plans to get current this weekend, and a close friend who is an instructor is really pushing for it. But honestly, im more nervous now than I was when I did my first tandem nealry 4 years ago. A part of me really wants to back away, but a bigger part totally remembers how much I loved jumping when I stayed current. Any advice would be great. Thanks!

lowie 0 #5 November 20, 2006 I've got similar jump numbers to you and I jumped for the first time in a year last weekend (long and boring story) and it went fine. Felt like I'd never stopped jumping. I was kind of hoping to get that "wired first jump" sensation but didnt happen. My guess is you will be fine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
