  1. Hey man, the way I turn usually is just by tilting my hands from horizontal to the ground to diagonal... kinda like the ailerons of an airplane. Give it a shot and remember to tilt your hands in the opposite direction of each other so one palm is facing more back and the other is facing more front, otherwise I don't think too much will happen.
  2. Dude, I must be crazy then....
  3. Yeah, plus its pretty cool to watch other people do rw and free fly stuff while you're hanging out the door. It's like front row seats!

  5. Instead of thinking about the fear, think about the sense of satisfaction you get as your main opens and you take in the view around you. Then again the satisfaction after you land on your feet. It's a great sense of accomplishment. When I went through AFF my friend and I drove three hours to the dz; these were three hours of anxiety and, well... fear. For me that fear has been replaced with fun. Where I was scared now I'm having a blast. Now as soon as I touch down I'm ready to go again ASAP. If its something you really want to do again you'll convince yourself to and along with jumping more will come more confidence and less fear. Good luck, be safe, Mark
