Crash in tunnel = Bursitis diagnosis

Pride of place is another 14ft (4.3m) diameter, super-smooth, super-fast wind tunnel for indoor skydiving. Set off from that and also overlooked by our new mezzanine viewing gallery are two Skiplex Ski slopes where anyone at any level from complete novice upwards can learn to ski or board. It’s the fastest and most rewarding way to learn whether you want to just try it out or sign up for a course.

use the suits at the tunnel. since your new to it you'll be spending a lot of time on the net especially learning to back fly. no sense in ripping up your new million dollar jumpsuit. also the ones at the tunnel have grippers that help the instructors spot you through transitions. save your money for flying.

USPA Poll on tunnel time replacing some freefall time for AFFIs
jdizzle replied to dorbie's topic in Instructors
I think that a few hours of tunnel time should be a requirement instead of a "instead of ff time" cop out. also i think a aff candidate should have at least 200 jumps as 'coaches' as a qualification for the aff rating. the above requirements would help ensure the instructors have the flying as well as teachings skills necessary as well as ensuring they have more experience. we have all seen the recent tandem video disaster, one of probably many that never made it to the public eye, now how many aff jumps do you think have gone bat shit crazy that no one has even seen or heard of?
