guidelines for landings in wrong places
alopatenko replied to alopatenko's topic in Safety and Training
are there any guidelines what to do in case of landings happens to wrong places powerlines, hills, buildings, forest, water etc what to do in each case? -
I had to break skydiving for 3 months to cure some back problems (had a bad landing)- now my doctors give an pproval what are my concerns on continuing after a break? what can i forget? what should i focus on? (i was doing one hour per week in a wind tunnel all this time)

I am in plateu Do very good (by estimates of coaches) belly flying, pretty stable and controllable back flying and stuck on transitining belly to back back to belly i do it but not as good as i want and i do not improve much over time (doing 1-1.5 hour per week, last three weeks) how to move out of plateau?
-
other things to get confidence- i am not an instructor but i felt it helped me is tell you friend do back flying - even a little -- you'l know there is nothing terrible about it learn how to get back from back to belly - so you know you can always get back to belly whatever happens to you learn rolls so you'll feel very confident about your stability and ability come back to belly

I failed the first attempt of level 4 spend around 1.5hour in the wind tunnel it helped a lot failure https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCGojKcjQD4 after thw wind tunnel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Jol2sR6wn8 I asked the wind tunnel coach specifically to make me lose stability so i would work n how to restore stability and we work on turns back to belly and rollover so i felt confidence that whatever happen i can go back stable

until i get my suit from liquid sky (expected to arrive by the end of October) what would you recommend for a beginner skydiver(just passed AFF) I see some people use cycling jerseys what else? I am pretty heavy 210 pounds and need something what creates a good drag
-
yes, i know it was my mistake repeated several times.i fixed it afterwards
-
i have graduated my AFF i had several heavy landing when i landed on my bottom nothing really terrible but i feel some backpain around sacrum area it s diminishing, i do not feel contiously sometime when i stand or change body position is it something normal? should i check with a doctor (which one)? another question how do you push yourself after AFF, how do you encouage yourself/keep motivated
