  2. Hey guys. Im from SoCal. Used to jump at Elsinore for most of my 105 jumps. I hold a B license. I moved to Charlotte last year, and am looking to slowly get back into the sport. Anyone here from Charlotte or there abouts? Super excited to get back up in the skies you don't even know!! Hi, my names Jon, and I love to skydive.

  13. I meant first aid. And yes even cpr. I took a cpr class back in high school, and I only remember a fraction of what i learned. The basics everyone knows without h And i thought you were talking about helping yourself, not to help someone else. I haven't read the whole thread so not sure what direction it has taken. Hi, my names Jon, and I love to skydive.
  14. Marko would know http://www.skydivingmovies.com/ver2/pafiledb.php?action=guestpass&id=a652x thanks coach....your making me real famous haha lol i have seen that video before. nice work. Hi, my names Jon, and I love to skydive.
  15. Hard deck? Sorry..newbie alert. EDIT: Decision altitude for me is currently at 2500 but thats something i think i can bring down a bit since its been that from jump 1. Haven't really given it much thought to be honest with you. haha yea i guess i figured that one out, the fun way... Hi, my names Jon, and I love to skydive.
  16. Taking a CPR class once does really no good. By the time you need to actually apply what you learned, it is most likely that you wont be able to remember exactly what to do, this is why it's best to maybe have a cell phone on you and call 911 and get assistance from them. Learning such skills are sorta like skydiving, after a certain period of time you need a refresher course. Hi, my names Jon, and I love to skydive.
  17. Ill check out the book, also that is the reason why this whole thing happened, I didn't give enough time between turns. NOW I KNOW haha. Yes I did the AFF course, this maneuver is actually part of the requirements to get the A, although i don't remember being specifically told what not to do, but i remember someone telling me not to worry with the big canopy's like the one i was riding. Hi, my names Jon, and I love to skydive.
  18. I don't feel that would be necessary. As a student, you are taught how to skydive and to skydive safely to avoid such a situation. What you do outside of that, should be up to the jumper. Its not a bad thing to know, but i don't think should be required, and if anything, i would imagine you would need it for someone else. not sure what exactly you can do to yourself if your passed out and injured. Hi, my names Jon, and I love to skydive.
  19. It was Sunday, 2nd jump, jump #27. I was just doing the regular canopy flying then decided to do a quick 90 to 180 at around 1800ft when all of a sudden I feel my toggles loose pressure and i looked up and saw a mess of a canopy then my head was squashed into my chest because my risers crossed behind my head. about 3 seconds later I was able to get the canopy flying stable. May not sound crazy but it was my first taste of a lower altitude malfunction. I've had line twists before but with a good looking canopy and at 3500ft~, what I saw of this canopy did not look like it would recover. Luckily it did. BTW this was on a 220 Nav. Cheers! :beer: Hi, my names Jon, and I love to skydive.
