Me too ...

Me too ...

you just described me ... except for the tandem part. I was arching quite well but was having problems with my legs being bent all the way to my butt ... I did this for my first 2 jumps during AFF ... I was only able to correct my legs issue after one of my instructors showed me how to practice the correct body position the ground, I'd arch and put my feet up on the chair extended out just the right amount and hold it for a while (I am not sure if you can see the picture but I am sure your AFFIs can show you wot I mean). After doing that for a bit I was good with my legs. I also didnt consciously begin waving off until after my 4th jump I believe. After a few jumps you will be more conscientious and take in more of what is happening in free fall ... My landings were brutal (but least my PLFs were awesome LOL) until my 5th landing. I was flaring way too high and way too fast until my AFFI told me to forget the "flare at 10ft rule", and gave me a countdown to slow down my flare. Again all this helped ME so talk with your instructors to modify your behaviors to help you come down softly. The AFF instructors know their poo, well the ones I jump with sure do. PS: I wish I had never known about skydiving, its a curse I tell ya. I cant jump everyday and yet I cant stop thinking about it ... - Neil Never make assumptions!

wow lady, you are bad ass - Neil Never make assumptions! That harmless rectangle could be two triangles having sex ...

me too, it was 7 bux if you signed up as a donor and 14 bux if you didnt ... the way I looked at it was I wont be using the organs anyways so might as well have someone else have em AND make 7 bux while doing so ... - Neil Never make assumptions!

60 seconds of pure absolution ... and the canopy opening is comparable to good sex (not great sex, but then again I havent had a really bad malfunction and I have had me some awesome sex) - Neil Never make assumptions! That harmless rectangle could be two triangles having sex ...

Congrats man, even though I still have one more lvl to go on my AFF, and I am already eagerly looking forward to gettting my A license. BTW how did you spread out your remaining jumps after AFF? ie how many of your jumps were "coached" jumps or with another jumper and how many did you just jump solo on your own? cheers - Neil Never make assumptions!

wicked !!! - Neil Never make assumptions! That harmless rectangle could be two triangles having sex ...

I have the same issues as you. I am trying to work on my landing pattern as well, I start my pattern way too high and my last 2 landings were fairly hard because I flared way too fast and too high, luckily I was ready to do a PLF and even then I felt that landing for a couple of hours lol ... - Neil Never make assumptions!

congrats guy. I cant wait to be done with my AFF as well, I just passed lvl 3 on Wednesday. I had to rejump lvl 2, was taking my sweet time with the TLOs and didnt get to do all of them, cant afford to fail any more levels ... - Neil Never make assumptions!

+ 1 with everything Joe said. From my limited # of jumps, Freefall is 60 seconds of absolution. Not only will your friends have absolutely no interest in the sport but they will look at you with a bewildered look as if you have an arm growing out of your forehead, because you cant wait to step out of a plane. Even if you come into the sport as a loner you wont be one for long after jumping. Cheers - Neil Never make assumptions! That harmless rectangle could be two triangles having sex ...

I just started AFF and I had to do 2 PLFs yesterday since my dumbass flared WAY too high, I think if I hadnt I would have probably broken something. - Neil Never make assumptions! That harmless rectangle could be two triangles having sex ...

wow, cant believe how much of a slacker I am ... well after a lil over a year I finally paid for the entire AFF package and am doing my AFF Level 1 tomorrow. Gotta be at the drop zone bright and early 8 in the morning for ground school. woot ... - Neil Never make assumptions! That harmless rectangle could be two triangles having sex ...

very cool jumping with your wee one ... - Neil Never make assumptions! That harmless rectangle could be two triangles having sex ...

Congrats, on the jump. I hope to sign up for my AFF at ASC in a couple of weeks. I've almost filled up the piggy bank to pay for the AFF package (oh so close now ). I've hung out at The Farm once and at ASC more then once for the entire day. Both places seem to have friendly folks who answer all my "whats that, whats that do" etc questions. The only thing that sux is the sheer amount of peer pressure to jump that very day. The last time I was there a few weeks ago I decided that I am no longer goin to just "hang out" and watch anymore, its too painful to bear. The next time I go to the drop zone I intend to jump out of an airplane. Good luck with your AFF whichever DZ you decide to jump from ... - Neil Never make assumptions!

me and me mate just hung out at ASC and the Farm today. No loads today cause of the shitty weather ... BTW I am in Marietta as well, I hope to start my AFF in a month or so, or least once it gets warmer. - Neil Never make assumptions! That harmless rectangle could be two triangles having sex ...

doesnt that just piss you off, when really talented folks turn out to be really nice. I mean if they were douches then atleast you can bash em for it ... lol - Neil Never make assumptions! That harmless rectangle could be two triangles having sex ...

money makes the world go round, sux that I am scrimping just to pay for the entire AFF ... oh well I guess I need to find me a sugar mama - Neil Never make assumptions! That harmless rectangle could be two triangles having sex ...
