Kmart 0 #1 November 29, 2010 Hello! Just thought I would introduce myself. I'm an AFF student with 9 jumps. I live in Louisiana but jump at Skydive Spaceland, near Houston (about 2.5 hour drive). I'm 36 years old. Both me and my girlfriend are going through AFF together. It has been pretty awesome to have someone to share the experience with. I can't wait to advance in this sport. With only 9 jumps I am already addicted and can't stop thinking about skydiving. So far I have been doing well in my training, though I have had to redo a jump already. It was the first time doing turns and I sucked, but I have done much better since. I have had stand up landings on all but one jump so far. I'm happy to have found a site to discuss skydiving and meet more people in this sport. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kmart 0 #3 November 30, 2010 The girlfriend is doing good. She hasn't had to repeat a level like me yet. We are currently on the same level. She is having a problem with landings though. She injured her tailbone and it hasn't stopped hurting her for 2 months now. A few times she didn't flare and she keeps lifting her legs and landing directly on her rear.
