masher 1 #1 March 18, 2003 Did my first fourway on the weekend. It was the last load too, we landed in the (semi) darkness. Launch from the Islander to a roundie, to a zigzag, back to a roundie, and into the opposite zigzag back to a roundie. Break off at 5k, cause we drifted in the uppers. Capped off a very nice day. I did (and passed) 4 B-rel jumps, and did a solo, then to the 4way.-- Arching is overrated - Marlies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope the "Night jumps should be required for a "D" license because what happens if you get on a sunset load..." crowd are reading this....

Squeak 17 #5 March 19, 2003 I did my 1st 4 way on the weekend also B-Rel 10 We did 9 points and broke of at 4000, It was unlinked and I came in 3rd, Satr to opposed diamond back to star to opposite opposed diamond back to star and repeat. I must say however that 2 of the 4way were instructors and the other guy is a 4 way champion, so all I had to do was fly and not fug up. (i did once but not badly) Lessons learned on this jump 1. RELAX (it works better) 2. Your mirror is the one to look at NOT your grips You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS! How's yours doing?

masher 1 #6 March 19, 2003 Yeah. In my 4way there was me with 55 jumps. One instructor with 1200, another instructor with ~2000 and another instructor with ~3000. All I had to worry about was me! Makes life a bit easier. edit:Oh yeah, and it counts towards my B-rel 10 too...-- Arching is overrated - Marlies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
