Dear All It's been such a long time since i last visited or posted on this forum... MISS YA ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've finally been signed off student status recently and the feeling of it was totally awesome!!!!!!! Finally i've "embarked" on the long long journey to more excitement and fun....... trying to find time and money to log in more jumps for my A license.............. The thot of jumping of the plane still seems pretty "scary" but oh well....... THAT's WHERE THE THRILL BEGINS>........... hahahha GOtta a stupid question..... why do i always seem to have problem pulling my ripcord???? i've tried different postures, ways etc... but i still have problem pulling that ripcord out for most of my jumps... and it's really scaring me.......... In one of my jumps recently, i waved off at 4000ft and had problem pulling my ripcord off....... tugged and tugged at it until it finally came out at ard 2000ft.................... Ah... really scared the "SxxT" outta me! any great advices from the experts here???? *i've been doing pushups since i came back from my jumps... thinking... could it be i've got not enuff muscles???? DUH!!!!!!!!!* CHeers!!!!!!!

Heyz Michelle, It's a natural thing to get freaked out at the thot of jumping of a perfectly good airplane at 10000ft for the 1st time... (I was one of these ppl) hahha! the reason behind it, is becos u will never imagine and believe that u can DO IT???!!! well, 1stly u have to kill those evil "what ifs" thots in ur mind.. believe in ur own capabilities. Think of wat u will do up there and thereafter.... Dun think as "I'm just a student, i'm lost, i dun think i can do it..." dun anticipate wat is going to happen when u haven't even jumped... the more u think about it.. the more u are going to think u cannot do it! When it comes to the time for u to jump outta the airplane, just rehearse ur drills or wat u shud do after u jump out (if u aren't doing tandem), and Look FORWARD to the wonderful feeling of Freefalling!!!!!!!!!!!!! and then... before u reached the ground, u can say "GOODBYE" to ur "What ifs" and i'll say Congrats and Welcome to ur new addiction ===> Skydiving! hee hee hee!

Good for you.... it does feel great to be able to move like the eagles huh??? Keep going at it.... DUN ever think of Stopping or Quiting....... cos u know how much fun u r going to miss out........... *whenever u see clear blue skies, u just yearned to be falling down from up there, dun ya??*

Welcome..... I dun really know who is the oldest in here... but that doesn't matter... anyway.. i think i started this addiction a bit too later too........ oh well, better be later then never.. then u'll miss out all the fun.... thinking of not thinking about skydive..... maybe ur next life......... U just cannot stop thinking about it.............. *Congrats*

Heyz, welcome to this wondeful forum..... and i'm GLAD that U are Addicted to this sport!!!! U'll realise that u've suddenly found ur meaning of Living and of cos, became more hardworking (in getting part time jobs, just to have money to complete ur skydiving training)!!! Meanwhile, Stay cool and safe...... U'll love skydiving More.....

I'm planning my schedule for my next jump, shud be doing it again in jul, which is after my exams... kekeke.... looking forward to it... Hope i'm going to have a better landing and exit this time............. I love this WEBSITE>................ and everyone here!

Hey All I've finally made my 1st ever jump in my whole life..... IT was totally AWESOME>................................. and I'm HOOKED!!!!! The most intense "fear" was the exiting.... the wind was so strong.. and I feel like I was going to be blown away any moment............ But the moment I loosen my grip on the strut, WAH.......... that is wat i really call adrenaline rush.................. It's no fear but all the fun and excitement that's in the air..................... Besides enjoying my freefall, i LOVE the Canopy ride down.......... the view was so Magnificent and well.. i'm glad that i made a decision to jump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If not i'd had live my life that is colourless and motionless......... Any tips or ideas to do a good delta position??????? ClearSkies....................Cheers Faye
