Zaccelerator 0 #1 April 18, 2011 Hi everyone. I finished AFF a week ago, and did my first solo jumps yesterday! I'm so addicted now. My home dropzone is Perris. If anyone in my area wants to carpool on the weekends, I'd love the company. I've been going one day every weekend. Working on my A license, so I can only jump with instructors right now.

skycamefalling 0 #2 April 18, 2011 Congrats and welcome to the forums. You can jump with anyone with an instructor or coaches rating or someone that has a D license.Speedracer~I predict that Michael Jackson will rise from the dead. And that a giant radioactive duck will emerge from the ocean and eat Baltimore. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zaccelerator 0 #3 April 18, 2011 Cool. I'm content to work on solo maneuvers for now. Did lots of 360s and barrel rolls yesterday. There's a deal if I do all my coach jumps in one day, so I may do that in a couple weeks. I feel like I'm really getting to enjoy the sport now.

Zaccelerator 0 #6 April 19, 2011 Ya. I definitely need to practice fall rate changes. Also need to practice climb out exits. I've been doing diving exits since I'm most comfortable with those. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zaccelerator 0 #8 May 13, 2011 AFF was pretty smooth except for my terrible exit on my first attempt at level 2. Now that I've got the skills and the confidence, I'm really enjoying my solo jumps. I did a frontflip exit outta the skyvan on Saturday. So fun! Gotta fit a packing class into my schedule soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
