  1. I just found out about this skills camp a couple of weeks ago when some of the Perris LOs caught me solo jumping, conned me into going on some bigger ways with them (which were great, but beyond my skill), and pointed me in MJ's direction. This skills camp is incredible. First, it's FREE!!!! Unbelievable! Thanks MJ and Dan BC! After getting my A license three years ago, I went in for some paid coaching, but just couldn't justify all the outgoing cash for several jumps a day. Second, MJ teachs you everything, geared at where you currently are. He's a great teacher, adapting to your personality and working at how best to get you up to your potential. I went in thinking I needed to work on an exit. Working with MJ quickly made me realize how much I need to work on. As a newbie, I'm really starting to learn the basics, correctly! Good body position, tracking, turns, basic exits -- MJ is working with me closely to get this stuff down. And not only down, but down RIGHT, so I'll have a really good foundation of skills to build on. His teaching style is a great mix of encouragement, positive criticism, and FUN. I can't say enough about this camp. I've attended for the last two weeks, and was able to get 11 total coached jumps so far, in addition to watching lots of good video of how to do it right, creeping, practice exits, and general instruction. I have definitely improved (but still have a long way to go). I plan on going as often as I can (well, vacation takes precedence...). It will definitely give me the confidence and skills to go jump with the LOs on bigger ways or explore 4-way jumps. For all you new divers like me, get signed up. If you just got your A license, get signed up. If you think you've got it all down, jump with MJ and prove it! I can't think of a faster way to get your skills developed, and to really enjoy it during the process. If you're in the Perris area and have any two-way or four-way coaching needs, this skills camp is tailor made. Cheers, Kent
