wildman2231 0 #1 April 19, 2006 Hi to all. My 1st tandem last fall was exhilerating! So, this spring did my lvl 2 and 3 jumps. I was surprised how mentally exhausted I was after these 2 jumps. I pressured myself 2 much but hit all of my marks fine. My hamstrings ached from trying to stand on my instructers feet to release hip compression straps. My lvl4 jump was FANTASTIC! So much more relaxed! My butterflies are starting to fly in formation! Thanks to the fine people at SGC here in Ohio. See you next week! -Blue Skies- Eric***"It'll only hurt for a little while"I'm fine...crazy people don't know they're crazy...No,Really! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaLowestBird 0 #7 April 21, 2006 QuoteGirlfriend is sick of me all of a sudden. Quote I'm going through the same thing right now. Don't worry, they're just jealous. Has she ever done a tandem or anything? I took my girlfriend to do a tandem and now she's starting to understand what all the fuss is about. She's still sick of me talking about it all day though.Convo between my friend and his ex... Nick - "Chad talked me into skydiving."

DaLowestBird 0 #9 April 27, 2006 Sweeeeet. My girlfriend and I got together during my four year lapse from jumping...and I've been known to start things and stop, so she thinks its just another phase. Little does she know I've been wanting to get back to jumping since the day I ran out of money :-DConvo between my friend and his ex... Nick - "Chad talked me into skydiving."

wildman2231 0 #10 April 29, 2006 lol. She wont even consider a tandem, thats ok,it's not for everybody...I understand that. Besides,so far , there seems to be some real cuties around my dz. I'll just wait till she fires me a third time , and stay fired! Did my lvl5 and 6 yesterday. I'm sure they'll be seeing alot more of me this summer!

DaLowestBird 0 #11 April 29, 2006 Yeh, I've been noticing quite a few cuties around my DZ as well...but thats ok, to me its just good scenery. Congrats on your level 5 and 6. Almost done!!! What are her reasons for not even considering a tandem?Convo between my friend and his ex... Nick - "Chad talked me into skydiving."
