  1. yep that's def true - I think my main problems are not arching enough and being too tense. I'm going to try my best to fix those things. I was just also wondering if instructor size is something that might have an impact and if going with an instructor near my weight would be easier.
  2. thanks for the info! so tiny me jumping with a much taller/heavier instructor could make it harder to be stable in freefall? is this an issue i should watch out for while doing the rest of my iaf levels?
  3. hello, i'm a newbie and just starting with my IAF levels. i did my level 4 (first non-tandem), and the freefall went badly - i started spinning almost right away. i'm pretty sure it's mostly because i was overly tense for the jump. but i was also wondering if the weight of the instructor, who's holding onto a leg, can makes things more difficult too? i'm very small and light (105lb) while the instructor i had was double that. could that weight difference make stability harder to achieve in freefall? should i try requesting an instructor closer to my weight? thanks guys!
