new to DZ.com and to skydiving
nachomasterCR replied to nachomasterCR's topic in Introductions and Greets
hey guys, just wanted to introduce myself. 23 year old trying to get into the skydiving world. so far i have done 3 tandem jumps and 1 solo. im doing a Tandem AFF course so the first 3 levels were all about learning to fly the canopy and body position. my solo was a complete mess, no arch, horrible body position, spun around all the way from 11,000 to 7,000 when my instructor managed to get me semi-stable and pulled for me. it's obvious i failed and it's got me a little discouraged. during the jump i could feel my intructor shaking my hip which is a signal to arch and i could swear i did arch, but then we looked at the video it's obvious i didnt... so yeah, first solo a complete fail... i guess it happens to some people. i wont be able to jump until the 30th (i know its a lot of time but its outside my control) so at least i have a lot of time to re-watch the video and practice a lot! anyway, nice to be part of this forum!
