  1. Ok so if I get something like ProTrack that logs all my jumps electronicly then I still need to carry around my log book and write up each jump... thats a shame
  2. OK that makes sense so I suppose you better get them all signed till you get your D (if thats something you want to do)
  3. Every time I go jumping I have to get someone to sign my jumps so I was wondering if after I get my A liscence I could sign my own jumps at the end of the day or does it have to be someone else?
  4. So my main motivation in the sport is Freefly and Swooping (k so thats 2) so I was wondering if I can get one rig that excels in both categories. Maybe its a stupid question... I know I don't have many jumps yet and I am working on it but I just figure if I am gonna spend on equipment (in the next couple months) it might as well be something that will last. After talking to my AFF instructors they said I needed different gear for Freefly than the student gear I had on so I shouldn't try sitting and stuff with that type of rig and after reading some posts here I learned that some canopies weren't good for swooping wich raises the question is there something out there for both?
  5. Totally hooked, did my first tandem sept 06 and I just had to do another 2 days later. Got laid off couple weeks later and was stuck dreaming about my next jumps. Got a couple jobs but nothing to get me back in the sky till last feb, took my AFF in may and I have been going to the DZ 3-4 times a week... now what they don't tell you about the sport is all the waiting involved. Too windy, you wait, have to go to work, you wait, not enough jumpers on the DZ to fill the otter, you wait, and then you wait some more. Its such a downer when you get up in the morning and look outside and its a nice day and when you get too the DZ you can't jump. So yeah Sky-Crack with all the highss and the lows. I was unable to jump last 2 weeks so I saved up and this week as soon as I can get out I am going for as many as I can, I want to get 31 jumps for my 31st birthday by 21-07-08 (next monday) so lets hope the sky gods hear my prayers... I am trying to get to at least 50 by september. (before the season ends that is)
