joeybob9 0 #1 March 21, 2004 Hey everyone, I just want to say hi and that I just started my jumping the other day. I did my aff 1 @ z-hills, and loved every second of it, fall and landing. The instructors are great, the people are great, and all I do now is look up @ the sky. This sport is just simply the greatest. I have my second jump this week and need to adjust on a few little things, but feel optomistic. So Hi to everyone and feel free to send some advice to a new jumper... Thank you..~Joe "When once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and there you will long to return." ~da Vinci Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joeybob9 0 #8 March 21, 2004 My Aff instructor is Eric, who is great. When I first heard who it was, I was sketchy having a younger guy training me to jump out of a plane. Nothing personal to him, but I was kind of looking for an older guy who one would think they could trust with their life. Well, I was wrong. He is a great instructor, who I do obviously trust with my life (he got me to the ground). I also had Paul gear me up, and Sally did outside on my jump. All great people.
