Thanks so much for the info

Awesome, thanks, I'll do that

I've just got my A- licence and I'm flying to Newark from Norway in October... I'll be skydiving The Ranch from 3rd until the 10th and looking to meet new people and practise some relative work.... Would be nice to hook up with you if you have the time

You could improve your skills by jumping with a rookie and teaching him a skill or two I'll be at The Ranch between the 3rd and 10th of October

Hi guys, Just got my A-licence and visiting The Ranch for one week in October (03-10) I know how everybody loves to jump with newbees, so I thought I'd just throw the offer out there

Hi guys, I'm travelling from Norway to Newark in October, hiring a car and driving to The Ranch where I plan to jump as much as possible during the week I am there Does anyone have any recommendations for places to stay in the near vicinity of the DZ? I'm staying one week. Thanks!

Great... If they are really good ay catching each and every transgression, that will put every single kid's name in the database which proves what, exactly? That kids really are human? Someone arrest this idiot!

Cheers mate, You've convinced me... The Ranch it is then :)

...and now I'm visiting New York for a week in October, buying a rig from The Ranch ProShop and hopefully jumping both there and at Skydive Long Island while completing my A and B licences :) Life is good!

Cheers, that's good news! I'm buying a rig friom The Ranch Pro Shop, so I guess I'll be spending most of my time there... Good to hear positive things!

Thanks for that... I think the FF view must be awesome from SDLI, so I will definately have to stop there for an exit or two :)

Hi , I was trying to decide between jumping at "The Ranch" or "Skydive Long Island" both situated in New York. Has anyone any feedback and / or comparisons? Cheers

Many contributors to the line-tracing project were not particularly perturbed whether or not they followed the line drawn, which renders the whole effort somewhat devoid of meaning But I think the fast-forward display was kind of cool, and with the use of psychotropic drugs would certainly make a lot more sense than to the avarage, non-intoxicated individual

Hi, I've been on a bit of a roller coaster ride when it came to getting my A-lisence... I completed my AFF course and 5 consoles in 3 days in Spain and then returned to to Norway. The reason I did the course in Spain was because the season in Norway is only from April til August with unstable weather in between, and I desperately wanted to start jumping When I got to Norway, They told me that they could not convert my student lisence, and that I had to first complete a written test over here (in Norwegian), and that any further education I got from abroad would have to be repeated in Norwegian tests over here. In addition, I neeeded a full medical exam, paid up insurance from our association, and paid membership to the local club Feeling more than a little annoyed, I went back to Spain and did another 22 jumps (coming back with 36 jumps in total) While in Spain, they offered to do my A lisence with me, to which I declined, saying I would have to repeat it anyway in Norway So, I'm back in Norway, write student exam, pass it somehow (I'm not actually Norwegian), then send in all applications, pay the club, buy insurance and then ask what's next. The Norwegian A lisence exam: 5 X perfect pack jobs (signed off) 3 X jumps landing with 15m of the target 1 X very hard written exam. Did the exam, (somehow passing it again)! Tried doing a packing course, but whenever I was there, they were not having one, so I just jumped instead. My landings are fine. So, it's the end of season, got 49 jumps, been jumping as an A lisence jumper the last 12 jumps, although technically I'm still a student because nobody has taught me how to pack..... AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

Hi guys, It's fantastic to finally be a part of the skydive community. Thanks Drozone for getting so many of us together in one place
