Unstable 9 #26 January 1, 2004 Besides the Jump Numbers, I have made it my new years resolution to learn to fly 4-way - be able to turn points on the competitive level. Screw Freeflying, When I learn to turn points like a pro, then I'll worry about flying on my head and ass.=========Shaun ========== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snowbird 0 #34 January 2, 2004 *Learn more about flying in every way *And then, get into coaching *Get a better canopy *Maybe, if I'm a real good girl, and manage to be in the right place at the right time with the right experience... try birdman*And do this with no injuries. Should be an awesome year! Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea. -Robert A. Heinlein Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #39 January 2, 2004 My goals this year are as follows: 1. Get my AFF rating 2. Compete in a regional swoop meet (good learning experience). 3. Get 1000 jumps this year (put me at or close to 2000 total).--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DickMcMahon 0 #40 January 2, 2004 Hope to do the big 100. I'm now at 71 so it should be fairly easy to get there so long as the money holds out, and I finally get the landings right. I'm sure as hell not going to do the naked jump if I'm still PLF-ing all the time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jsaxton 0 #41 January 2, 2004 There is nothing wrong with learning all skydiving styles. How many points can YOU turn in time? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AntiPinkChrissy 0 #43 January 2, 2004 I have been in this sport for a few years but there is still so much to do and work on! As Lisa said before, my #1 goal is not to die. Other than that though: -Get better at my sit and get stable/proficient on my head -Have my 4-way team get either 1st or 2nd in the A class in the Michigan Skydiving League--last year took 3rd -Work on canopy skills/get more performance out of my canopy -Try some crew -Jump my butt off!! -Improve my BASE skills and jump off more objects Editted to add: Fly camera and work with more students hmmm...I think that covers it! ~La La Gang Member #2~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
