selbbub78 0 #1 August 1, 2003 Hello All, Over a year ago, i started my student training for my A license, due to unforeseen incidents I had to stop with 11 jumps. I started back in June, and July 20th, I finally received my A license. It's great to have it, and i'm taking full advantage of jumping whenever i can. I have 36 jumps, have learned how to do some freeflying moves, and better belly position. Unfortunatly, my landings are awful. Although my accuracy and percision is right on, I only have one standup landing (which i'm trying to work on). Figured i'd just say hi, and welcome myself :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

champu 1 #6 August 2, 2003 Hey, you only need one stand-up landing for your A-license That's great that you have your license. I took forever to get mine too. It feels like once you get your license and equipment you can finally start learning to really skydive! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robskydiv 0 #7 August 2, 2003 Congrats on the "A." Jump as much as you can with an experienced skydiver and learn as much as you can. Be safe and have fun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slotperfect 7 #8 August 6, 2003 Hi Kim! Glad to have you here in our midst! HUGE congrats on your A license . . . enjoy the benefits! Your landings will come eventually. Just make sure and use the good ole PLF when you need to. Maybe you can get some coaching by having a Coach or Instructor watch your landings and give you some pointers?? Let us know how it works out!Arrive Safely John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

digurman 0 #11 August 7, 2003 I only have 30 jumps, but my landings are good as long as I look out at 45 degree and I don't flare too early. Accuracy is my problem. I might be on the spot one jump and 100 M off the next. Words aren't real Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
