GLIDEANGLE 1 #2 April 17, 2009 These aren't podcsts, but you still might find the animation helpful. Be sure to look at the whole list, as there are important ones at the bottom. http://www.skydiveelsinore.com/JumpStart/The choices we make have consequences, for us & for others!

councilman24 37 #3 April 17, 2009 shaking head in disgust with newbies Now they want to learn skydiving from a DAMN IPOD!!!!!Aren't tunnels bad enough!Seriously, best advice? Go, listen without trying to apply what you THINK you know, and ask questions face to face with YOUR instructors.BTW I think all tunnels should be bottom propeller without nets so that if you screw up you still die.I'm old for my age.

DJL 235 #7 April 18, 2009 If you haven't started your training yet then don't go looking at these things unless there is something that your instructor wants you to see. You need to get your initial instruction through your school, not from external referenences. There is a specific list that your instructors will want you to understand, it's so that you don't know enough to get yourself and trouble and so that your knowledge is relevant to your lessons."I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr2mk1g 10 #8 May 8, 2009 Nothing wrong with listening to Skydive Radio - awsome podcasts - very little in the way of training (especially in the early ones) but gets you very much into the spirit and culture of the sport. Lots of cool history and stories too. Would recomend it to anyone, even wuffos. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
