The first release dive is sweet! I am heading for level 5,6 and 7 to finish up AFF at DelMarva in a few weeks. I just can't wait to self teach, I feel pretty comfortable in the air and with altitude awareness, but these expensive AFF jumps make me feel more pressured to pass and not to have to repeat a level(it's pricey at first).
Now don't get me wrong I understand safety is absolutely #1 and training is essential but I'll have sooo much more fun when the pressure (to pass a $170) jump is off my shoulders, and I look foward to many coached. Does/did anybody else get that feeling at first?

Enjoy your first solo jump! Did you do 2 tandems then start AFF? I jump at Dallas. If your up there on a friday look me up!

dont look at it like pass/fail. you have 60 seconds two to three times every two to three weeks to practice. while i was doing aff, which was very recently, i looked at it like, "have i learned enough to keep myself alive without someone else holding me through freefall?" the sky is the scariest and most amazing environment you can experience, but completely unnatural to your body. everyone learns at a different pace and this holds true for skydiving as well. just enjoy the jump for what it is, a skydive. it is stressful enough without bringing in more by worrying about pass/fail. another 170 dollars if you havent learned enough to keep yourself alive is a lot cheaper than the alternative, meaning dead.

good luck with aff and blue skies

John Deere I think I took a pic of you the first day we were there... looks like AFF the 17th for my Bday!

If you took a pic of something JD there's a good chance it was me. If the weather keeps up how it is, I may end up there on the weekend. Say hi if you see me again. Good luck on your jumps!
