Luv2Fall 0 #1 January 22, 2003 Great website here......I'm new to the sport (2 Tandems & 3 AFF's) and am still nervous until after the exit LOL. I really hope to learn a lot from you guys. Skydiving has to be the greatest thing I've ever done. I retired from the Army, wrestled bears, earned a Black Belt in Okinawan Kempo, repelled from choppers..........nothing, I mean nothing compares! Now, I've never bungee jumped and don't care to either LOL. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SteveM 0 #9 January 23, 2003 Judyindeskys, I don't know your age (and I'm smart enough NOT to ask) but there was a song out when I was a kid by the name of "Judy in disguise -- with glasses" that just rocked. What a great memory that brought back to me............. Sorry, guess you had to be there. Steve M >^..^< for me -- SkyDiving is a life sentence -- for it has saved my life.

Luv2Fall 0 #10 January 23, 2003 Thank you all for the warm welcome.......I really appreciate it. Oh yes, that last name is a doosy isn't it? I should do my C-2 jump this weekend and am looking forward to it. C-1 went perfect in that stability and relaxation couldn't be better. A week later I did a C-2 (1 JM version of C-1 - released) and didn't pass as I wasn't relaxed and had a slow spin. Hope to nail it this weekend.
