I was the exact same way - spinning uncontrollably like a top. Sucks, doesn't it? I had the greatest instructor try to help me several days in a row. No good. During my last jump, I got a coach video. It showed me my mistakes but I don't really know whether or not it helped me. I was getting really frustrated and put way too much pressure on myself. One night, as I was reading Parachutist, I ran across a letter someone wrote who was having problems during their coach jumps. Anyway, the letter said that skydiving was more work than fun. Once that person decided to enjoy skydiving again, regardless of what happened, they relaxed and was able to pass the level they had difficulties on. The next time I jumped, I told myself I'd smile during the entire jump. On the way to altitude, my instructor told me to tighten every muscle in my body, hold it, then relax. It worked a bit but I really think the smiling helped. For some reason, I left the plane smiling and I really enjoyed getting stable and the practice handle touches. When it came time to turn, I could do it - no problems. It was amazing. I don't know if my experiences will help you. The only real suggestion I can make is to smile during the jump and make yourself have fun skydiving again. Good luck, have fun, and keep us updated on your progress.
