  1. the camera work is what i like the most its very clear and easy to see what the student is doing i may relate to it more because its the same routine as i did on my aff 2
  2. no its easier for me to watch the movies is all its no were near as easy to surf as you tube i said i will be downloading many very awesome vids from there and why is there all this you tube hate all i am saying is this is the best aff vid i have seen i have only ever been able to find aff vids there
  3. ok i signed up and was greeted with one of the worse quality websites i have seen you tube is much easier to use but i am sure that it has some awesome content on it and will be downloading plenty of megs from there but at the end of the day this clip still stands out to me as the best i have seen at this time and when i finish sifting through your site i believe i wont change my mind after watching hours of you tube aff clips and finding this one
  4. 1 i have to log in 2 i have seen plenty of clips that one stands out to me as very well done
  5. I have been watching as many videos of aff since starting mine as i can. This is the first one that really stands out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyZJPFplwT0&feature=related thought it was great hope she uploads the rest of her jumps
  6. life is a place in between where we were and where we are enjoy it and feel all it has to offer never be scared of what might happen as it might not and never discard what you should fear as this can prolong your stay with my best intension should my reserve ever fail tell my family members that i would have done it again any way i am sorry to leave you this way but at least i got to fly the open blue sky i never got to say good bye but know my last thoughts weren't of fear or loss just the gain of freedom that blue sky's give to those of us that get to fly
  7. will a canon ball position get you out of a flat spin canon ball = legs pulled up to your chest so you are like a ball yes a fetal position would be the same thing ty
  8. hi ppl i did my stage 3 today aff jump went great only problem is i am to light (or don't arch hard enough) i weight 55kg and i am near 6ft tall the ladie i jumped with fell a lot faster then the 2 of us and found it hard to stay close and from what i can gather she can fall very slow i have never been very big and i have tried to put weight on before but i can eat the cow and the farmer and not gain weight i believe this might make my aff a lot harder then it could be as ppl my weight don't have as much strength as me and i could put them in danger if i stuff up. any tips on improving my arch or increasing my fall rate would be great i have been shown some exercises that have helped alot and i am still working on them just wondering if theres any thing else i might try ty all
  9. hi ppl i have been thinking that this could be a cure for depression its been 3 weeks since my last jump (not from lack of trying) and i have been dealing with depression for some time now 3 or 4 years without any medi's after my first stage aff it just disappeared like boom gone due to the weather here and and me being only able to jump on weekends i haven't been able to get up there and finish it off. i have noticed that i am feeling depressed again only maybe alittle more so So my ? is could skydiving be a drug free solution to depression any ideas on this are more then welcome
  10. hi ppl i had a line twist first jump' (wow i know ty) i would just like to post here that today i did my first time aff jump never having jumped out of a plane ever ever ever. after i deployed my chute opened very fast as in i almost got to count 1000 before opening shock. i looked up and seen a line twist and grabed my risers and pull it out very easily. (ty god or my instructors) landed fairly nicely (on my butt) make sure you keep going over every thing the hole time it made it even better to have a small hiccup on my first jump as i seen a line twist and just did what i was told and showen and kept going and will be going again soon i hope :) cutting away catch u up later
