  10. As a 5' 110 pound chic I can relate to your situation. I too was concerned with the climb out and being able to reach. I'm on solo status now and I tell you if you can stick it out it's totally worth it. Door dives are super fun!

    I too had (still get) bruises. Mainly from hanging from the strut. Which is the exit for several of your jumps to come. They aren't pretty but I was proud of each one. I still get bruised up but from what? Who knows. I'm having to much fun to care.

    Do you have AFF at your DZ? It's another option. My friend had a very bad jump with his leg caught up in the lines (he was a tandem student progression series) and it shook him up. He is now doing AFF and loving it.

    Blue skies.

  12. I got in my third jump! Saturdays jump had to be canceled do to the Washington weather. I camped out and was put on stand-by for Sunday. Patience paid off and I got my last tandem out of the way with 12,500 ft. and some 360's. Now I can start on the static line progression next weekend. (I will miss the free fall until I can do it on my own) Hopefully I can log several jumps.

    It's great to get the "fix" in after being off for a couple of weeks! :)
    Starting a special savings account for the winter :ph34r: and looking for a new job closer to the air field.

  13. Thank you all for the welcome! Nice to know the over forty has a place to fly ;) I'm sure we all feel much younger then our years here on the planet! Thank Goodness.

    As a Washingtoneon (?) where do we go in the off season? AZ? I'm already stressing about it :P

  14. Just thought I would come out of the "lurk mode" and introduce myself. I've only done two tandem's and will be doing number three this Saturday. Then next weekend I'm onto the static line progression. I can't wait to start that :)
