1st jump and a tandem

[Brian1 0]

Just made my first jump with a group of friends last Saturday and it was a tandem. I LOVED it I have been a motorcycle rider for years and now every time I look at the sky I want to jump again. I have a friend that wants to teach me he has over 3000 jumps but kinda nervous about the AFF but I know it's gotta be done if I want to progress. Any suggestions from any new or experienced jumpers.

just relax and go for it. AFF is kinda like boot camp - when you are done you wonder why you were so apprehensive about it to begin with. have fun.

As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD...

Just throw your balls out the door and your body will follow! If you loved your first jump definetly go for your second Tandem and see how you feel. my second jump was totaly diff. than my first I felt much more relaxed, and got a better feel for the sport and what it was about. I guarantee that after that second jump you will have no questions about wanting to start your AFF. If it feels good keep doing it right!!! If not keep doing it till it does! have fun

Hello all! been a day or two since I was here I went to a local DZ today and they suggested progressing in static line jumps to get my A license any comments.

I think you'll enjoy tandem progression to AFF, more then the staticline progression.
Look at different DZ's for the most recommended Instructors.


Be safe.
