egloskerry 0 #4 June 2, 2010 Wow they are doing it late. Mine was AFF 4. You won't have a problem. Just arch. You may turn a bit, don't sweat it. They don't expect you to be perfect. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Makarius 0 #7 June 3, 2010 yeah they do things a little differently here. the program is called AFP and you do three training tandems and than move onto solo free fall. this will be level three and my release dive on saturday. i had to repeat level one because my car decided it didn't like its transmission anymore and my skydiving budget got cut short. But i am grateful that i had more time with a instructor holding on before my release dive because i feel i am more stable during free fall than i would have been. everytime i jump im more nervous than the time before.. is this normal? and if anyone is up at SDLI ill deff by the beer i owe ya haha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
