jake95 0 #1 August 26, 2010 well, the 25th finally came. as soon as i finished ground school we were loaded up and ready to jump. the whole experience was amazing. i dont really remember my freefall, i was to busy going through my procedures. but once i was under a good canopy it was quiet and peaceful. I landed on 2 feet about 25 yards from the bullseye. my instructor said it was a great landing, which made me feel good. jump 2 6am tomorrow cant f&*^en wait.

jake95 0 #5 August 27, 2010 jumps 2 and three done, my instructor said i was a natural, i guess even 3 minutes of tunnel time helps, almost got jump 4 in but the wind picked up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I know how that is. I got done with ground school today and couldn't do jump one today because of the wind. Hopefully I'll have better luck tomorrow Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After ground school we flew up to 14,000 feet and the pilot called it all off right before the red light. Way too many clouds. Maybe they did it just to mess with my nerves a bit Don't forget to pull! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jake95 0 #10 September 7, 2010 jump 6 done, got to follow my instructor out while doing a double flip, then tracked and docked with my instructor twice on the same jump. man this is great, monday is jump 7, i cant wait to start paying less for these jumps.

Gators1240 9 #11 September 7, 2010 Yeah I know what you mean but it is a little expensive still having to rent gear. A jump day for me isn't worth it unless I can get at least 3-4 jumps in. I would be pissed to spend $80 on rental gear for only one or 2 jumps Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
