lilmomma10 0 #1 October 20, 2012 Hello my name is Jamie. My brother got me started into skydiving and now I feel hooked. On the plane to WA the other day all I could think about when I looked out the window was jumping. I wanted to jump so bad. I passed my Aff course a few weeks ago however on my graduation jump I managed to break my radius and needed surgery. For whatever reason I am having difficulties with stand up landings. Well I am now out for the season as I imagine you cannot safely jump with a brace on or shouldn't. I am currently looking into canopy courses to see if they will help me with my landing. I am also interested in the sisters of the sky and want to look into this at my local drop zone. I can wait for spring so I can get back and have some fun.

Blue Skies It took me over 25 jumps to consistently stand up my landings so you're normal. I know what you mean about wanting to jump from a commercial jet flight. I want to get out so bad too. Good luck healing up and get back out there ASAP. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
