  1. no i had the flu this week.im hoping to be better by the next weekend.
  2. thanks Randy ,im doing 3 jumps a week as long as the weather permits.and im not talking about the cold.just clouds and rain.Im hoping to have my A license by february.later bro. also I went back to work..im working on the dart rail wiring in all the new signals and instruments.and we are working monday thru thursday 10 hour days so eventually i can probably be able to jump with you on fridays...
  3. yea well today i passed level 7 aff. and after #7 i did 2 solo dives just for fun...now off to coached jumps...
  4. today i passed aff 5 and 6 now on to 7..woohoo cant wait until next week...
  5. sure am with every jump comes more knowledge and responsebility.it just so much fun and excitment...
  6. yea i passed #4 today an now am on to # 5 woo hoo...it was a beutiful day for jumping in texas...gotta love it
  7. i only have 5 jumps from 3 different dz and i would recommend skydive dallas. they have an awsome staff and top notch equipment and instructors.dont get me wrong if you do a dive and your performance is not up to standards you will be doing it over to go on to your next level.but i personally would rather to have to learn correctly,all of my skills than just to be passed on without doing so.also after your first dive aff level 1 if you pay for your next dive before you leave they give you 40 dollars off each dive.all the way thru aff 7.i hope this was helpful...
  8. hey and you were right was'nt hard at all to find john deer....later

  14. im a big guy 215lbs 5' 10" tall muscular build and am in aff training.im
  15. only you know if its right for you.but my experience (as limited as it is 3 jumps)it gets better.besides think of the fear you have as your minds way of telling you that you want to live and that its going to do what it was trained to do to survive. sometimes fear can be a good thing as long as you dont let it take over... work thru it remember what you learned and go over the jump in your head while in the plane .imagine you doing a perfect jump and the when the door opens just do it... good luck and dont sale your self short
  16. i am new to sport as well,but cant believe your not trying to plan your next jump.its been life changing for me at 39 years of age.good luck and come on get back in that plane .....
  17. thank john deer i to will be jumping all year around.cant be much worse than swimming in the lake in the winter...
  18. thanks for the input.because of finances i can only do one a week until i get passed #7.then i can afford 3 a week.even if i have to jump in winter will i still be able to?i under stand i might have to wait longer .
  19. thank will do so ...im addicted now the only thing im afraid of is supporting my addiction....
  20. thanks man one of these days im going to see you at the DZ..
