Congrats! This will have to next years "New Years resolution" for me. Damn Minnesota winters. I should move to Florida. -
YES!!! I finally passed.
Well it is nice to hear that other people have had similar problems, especially Reginalds post. As I read the post I couldn't help but laugh because I'm in the same boat. Now I know I won't give up. Thanks for the encouragement, I really needed it.
Ever since my first jump I have been hooked on skydiving. My only problem is that I'm always coming up short on my D2 (Level 5 at most other DZ's) jump. I currently have made 9 AFF jumps. I had to repeat D1 once but I am going on my 5th attempt on trying to pass my D2. I was mainly having problems with my turns, so I flew down to Orlando for two 15 minute sessions with a coach. I feel much better about my turns but I still need to work on getting my legs out more and keeping them from moving around so much.
How many jumps does it take the average person to completely pass the AFF course? I feel that if I don't complete my AFF course soon that I should just quit. I feel real passionate about the sport but I feel crappy about how many attempts this is taking me. I guess I'm just wondering how many others have been in the same boat or if I'm the only one.
Thanks
