The only thing that makes me nervous is all the people that'll be in the sky at the same time. I'm not use to that. Any hints on how to get over that?



Spaceland had a left landing pattern that is pretty well followed. That will help out allot. The other thing is the size of the landing areas. You can literally land "alone" all you want and then integrate yourself as you get comfortable.

I only have 57 jumps and can't wait! I've been practicing my landings, as in picking where I'm gonna land and landing there. The only thing that makes me nervous is all the people that'll be in the sky at the same time. I'm not use to that. Any hints on how to get over that?



Close your eyes???
:D:D:P

Uh oh....just kidding! J/K!!!!

Start with small groups and land away from the others.
My reality and yours are quite different.
I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

Who is it that I need to seek out about the SCR's? There are 3 or 4 of us from my DZ going that weekend that want to get that award.

I can pick you up and get you to the DZ. I plan to jump a lot on Wed and Thurs, then take it easy and help out on Friday anyway.

Anyone else coming in to Hobby around that time- could probably get about 2 more. This does not make me a shuttle though;):P

...I would assume that there be people there who could advise me on different safety issues that come with boogies, correct?????

Nathan,
If you can't find J, you will recognize

I will personally get someone for you that can answer all your questions and tell you everything you need to know. If it turns out to be Keith, you may get more than you need to know but you will be well-advised for ALL boogies.

:)



Can I do the advising?

Can I, Huh, Can I?
I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama
