Brittentay 0 #3 July 24, 2007 Thank you!! as far as going on another tandem, or staring the learnign process, im really not sure yet? i absolutely loved doing the tandem, and think i would be more comfortable if i did a few more before starting anything. haha. i had a blast, though, and loved the falling part. I told my boyfriend i had my "peter pan moment" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #4 July 24, 2007 Some dz's will let you incorporate 3 tandems into your student training program. You should talk to your dz about that if you are interested in jumping on your own someday. That's the way I did my training. I don't think I would have jumped if I didn't have the tandems first!She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brittentay 0 #11 July 27, 2007 my boyfriend asked me if i thought i could learn how to fly a parachute, or if it was something i would even want to do!! i told him straight up that i would be much more comfortable if i could complete a few more tandems first. and he was totally supportive. i thought it would be seen as i was afraid, which really isnt it at all. i just enjoy not having to control anything for a few minutes!! i just got to enjoy the fall and the ride!! haha. im sure i will eventually learn, but the tandem was fun, and maybe ill just become a professional tandem first.
