Atlanta Skydive Center still has a large amount of strongs

Yeah but they are the home dz to Skyride and they recently lost their heart and soul of their dropzone Mike Gruwell (Head Rigger and School Manager). He went to the DZ 3 miles away at Skydive The Farm. There are plenty other DZ's in Atlanta that don't have the reputation that ASC has.

With or without Mike ASC is still one of the most progressive dropzones in the southeast. Some of the best skydivers around can be found on that DZ.

There is never a lack of work and the AC sure is nice.

As long as i think i can keep a student under control during a jump. I will continue to let them jump. I once took a student on 4 level 1 aff's before he finally decided on his own that maybe this wasnt the sport for him.

I have had the talk with one student becouse he couldnt not land a parachute to save his life. (even with a radio!)

I have done 19 tandems in a day,but that was out of Mike Mullins king air. I did 16 this past Sunday half tandems, Half Aff

And dont forget get to bring beer for your aff instructors

I am following them out and after the drogue is out I go by about fifty or so feet away. The reason I go by is because I fly about like the space shuttle - like a rock. I am not that good a skydiver.

As a tandem instructor what you just describe is my worst nightmare.

but I just don't see what the big deal is.

Hmmm maybe the big deal is the life of the Tandem student. That student did not pay good money so that you can come take him out on a jump.

shit. throw me some vibes while you people are at it.

Good Luck!

I made 1200 jumps last year (1000) of those were tandems. This year i made 400 but i only did a few tandems.
I had alot more fun this year!

if your not ready to load a crossbraced at 2.0 your not ready to load a crossfire at 2.0

I have to agree with Marks if you have the ablity to fly a non-crossbraced canopy at 2.0 you are ready to fly a crossbrace. The crossbraced at 2.0 with be easier to fly than the crossfire.

Tom,

I dont think you would have any chance of falling out of the harness but the lossened leg strap could cause a turn with the canopy that could making landing a slight bit difficult
