wolfriverjoe 1,523 #6 April 14, 2014 alicepattinson ***Welcome to the forums! Hi skymama, oh I'm not a skydiver. I'm so afraid of heights. hahaha :D So what? A lot of skydivers don't like heights. But once you are up that high, it's no longer "height", it's "altitude." And besides, you are so scared about jumping out of the plane, that the height is a minor concern So why then are you here, if you don't jump?"There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

ianyapxw 0 #7 April 15, 2014 As I did a fair share of time in a wind tunnel, skydiving came extremely naturally, the only problem was the fear of throwing myself out of the door. Maybe you could try that first and realise that hey, it's not a scary feeling You're not falling, you're flying! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueSkiesDad 0 #8 April 15, 2014 My TI said he can't use a ladder to clean his gutters. Personally, I find that, at altitude, you lose the height perspective. Everyone should try it once! Think for yourself. Question authority. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ianyapxw 0 #9 April 16, 2014 What does your TI do then? Hire someone to do it? Or are there any other equipment that can be used (gutter covers)? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trafficdiver 8 #10 May 15, 2014 jessicajem Hi friends,I am a new member in this forum. Hi. You can start a new thread if you want telling us where you're from, what your jump numbers are and if that is really you in your picture. Then brace for stalking leg humpers.
