Skywoody 0 #1 August 18, 2004 Made my first solo jump yesterday at Cross Keys. All I can say is "Holy Shit" This is gonna be some wild fun. My biggest fear was a malfunction on this jump: So what happens: I get a partially open chute with a line twist. I look up and remember square chute straight lines slider down. and say thats not the way it suppose to look. I remember what I was told, first don't over think it. Kick out of it, relax. So after about 4 spins under the canopy "pop" fully inflated chute. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

loflyer 0 #3 August 18, 2004 Congratulations on your first Jump! This sport is the most awesome thing you will ever do... Good luck on the rest of your AFF Training... Just remember to relax, arch & learn everything you can from your instructors. When are you going to do level 2? It only gets better from here.

Skywoody 0 #4 August 18, 2004 I hope to get in the air tommorrow, weather permitting. I would like to get all my jumps done as soon as possible as close together as possible. I am alittle hesitant about going on the weekend though because of the amount of jumpers around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But you will get use to it. Have a great time & stay safe. lori Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
