- stay alive
- learn as much as I can about 4-way and being a good teammate both on the ground and in the air.
- do as much as I can to help my team grow
- put continuous effort to stay in a good physical and mental shape, and improve my individual flying and canopy piloting skills.
- have a lot of fun ;)
- start looking for independent job by the end of next year so in future I will have more time and money to work even more on all stated above.

1) Better, smoother swoops., swoop a pond.
2) Get Headdown!
3) At least 200 jumps

I'll be moving next year to some unknown place (applying to colleges out of state), so I can't make my goals too tough because I have enough to worry about:) I do hope to save enough $$ to buy another canopy by the end of '05, but considering I won't have a job after July, I may have to hold off on that:( .
