im eager to get my license and more importantly get good at the sport. im 2 hours from my dz so i have a lot of free time to practice techniques but no idea how to go about it. are there any things i should do? excercises at the gym? acrobatics? breathing excercises? form practice? etc

find a wind tunnel in your area (hopefully theres one around close) its not cheap but you will learn from each session with some coaching, theres alot of things you can try in a tunnel and not have to worry about the ground rushing up or floating into somebody elses formation.
