  1. Hi Jeth
    The program sounds cool, I am kind of wondering what do I do when I finish AFF? Jump by myself?? :D Have fun on your release dive, I remember mine quite an eye opener! Have fun ;)

  2. Hi Wendy
    Good luck with your AFF! Say hi to Tyson and Luke for me. How come you are just doing AFF now but have so many jumps already? I actually had my first jump in WA but moved to CA right after. I go to Hollister now. I will try to get up to WA when I am off student status though so maybe we'll see each other.

  3. I am in the same spot you are, hopelessly addicted! Skydiving is all I think about and everyone around me thinks I am completely crazy. Shows how much they know! I was totally freaked about my first canopy ride as well, especially the landing. A couple of tips; look at the landing area aerial photo before you jump, after your canopy opens, look for your instructors canopies and just follow them down. For landing, they will tell you everything to do over the radio. So don't stress too much (I know that is the stupidest thing to say but it's true) and try to enjoy the ride!

    Good Luck!

  4. Hi All,
    I'm Jen, I just finished my AFF level 5 and can't wait to get back to the DZ (Hollister) for 6 & 7! My first three jumps were up at Skydive Snohomish in WA... Tandem progression and AFF first jump. For my level 5, my instructor talked me into diving headfirst out of the KingAir. Let me tell you I am so glad he did because it was the funnest f#&$ing thing I have ever done and I can not wait to do it again! And again, and again.....
    Blue skies!
