I have a question about jumping in Europe... Everywhere I look it says that insurance is required... Does anyone have information as far as how to get that insurance or exactly what they're talking about? Thanks.

Hey guys, found this awesome looking altimeter online.... Would like to buy one but wanted to know if anyone owns one or has any feedback on this item. Figured I'd ask before I spend the money ... Here's the link

AWESOME!!! Your post just put a big smile on my face. Have fun and keep it safe :)

Thank you for your reply... I am not afraid anymore but now my problem is that I can't get past category E1 due to the spins!! OMG it is actually hillarius until I remember how much each jump costs.... I am thinking about going to the tunnel to get my legs fixed before the end of the season. I love Skydiving (with spins and all) and I can't wait to give it a try again tomorrow!!

I was very fearless during my first 4 jumps... on my 5th jump I spun out of control, got on my back while spinning then did a bed roll over (that was easy) but I couldn't stop spinning, my instructor was able to help me, once she did I did my turns and continued with the skydive... That's when my fear started. I am not afraid that I could get hurt, that thought doesn't even cross my mind. I am not afraid on the climb up, I trust my equipment and I trust the pack job they do at my drop zone (all openings have been nice and smooth so far), I guess my fear comes from being unstable and doubting my ability to control that. I need to boost my confidence and just do it. Over thinking is not solving anything. I appreciate every single one of the replies on this thread, it really helps a lot to read all the encouraging emails from this wonderful skydiving community that actually takes time from their busy days to reply to a scared student all the way on the other side of the world. How can anyone not want to be part of this big family??
Thank you very much again, I will go and do what I am being trained to do.
Blue skies everyone!

OMG Thank you!! I may need just that... but I know that once I get there I will be dying to JUMP!!!

Thanks!! I would love to do just that lol

Good question, and the answer is no. I would not be afraid to repeat an easier jump. I was all about the sport until we got bad weather and two weeks went by without a jump then the fear came. Maybe I should talk to my instructors and see if I can do that. Thanks for the feedback :)

Hello, I'm going through AFF, my next jump is Cat E1 (barrell rolls) but I haven't jumped in 3 weeks, for some reason I am very afraid of skydiving again? I loved it until recently, last week I skipped the drop zone because I was afraid. I used to be completely fearless about jumping, where did this sudden fear come from? Has anybody been in a similar situation? Is there a trick or something to do to overcome this fear? I even started to question if this is something I want to do or not? but I know this is a silly question because of course I want to skydive!!!
Help , anything to boost my confidence will help at this point!!!

Hi, I would like to know if anyone has membership at NH Skyventure and is looking to share some tunnel time? I only need like 15-30 mins to brush up on some things. ~Thank you.
