GroundRush1 0 #8 February 25, 2003 Confidence is everything, stay with tandems till youre ready for AFF. Doesnt hurt to spend some time feeling secure while getting used to the ground rush, then you move on, when youre ready. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caseyusa 0 #11 February 25, 2003 Quote Confidence is everything, stay with tandems till youre ready for AFF. Doesnt hurt to spend some time feeling secure while getting used to the ground rush, then you move on, when youre ready. Ask your tandem instructor to show you the ropes under canopy! "What's that?" "How do you do this?" "Why do you do that?" They enjoy sharing their knowledge, and you can pick up some ideas with the comfort of a knowledgible instructor attached to you. --- ** Blue Skies, Yellow Mustard. ** It's like a farmer, out-standing in his field.
