mfuller 0 #1 September 22, 2007 I just completed a coach course and phase one of a strong tandem course at Start Skydiving in Lebanon, Ohio. Kip Lohmiller taught the coach course. This was my first sustained interaction with him. I was very impressed with his class. He put us through a challenging course. Going in, I didn't have much expectation for the coach course. I soon realized that I didn't know nearly as much as I thought. Not only did he share his knowledge with us, but he extended the generosity of the dz. He put the caravan in the air for us, even when the loads were very light. Not only did I get to jump with Kip, but Kip also asked John Hart to join us. His whole crew were outstanding. Kip set up the Strong rating course. Dave Bazzoni from Strong came up and offered a great phase one course. If you get the chance to work with Dave, do it. He is a good man! I'm rung out now. I had a great week at Start Skydiving. Also I want to give recognition to Scott and Warren from Central Michigan. They were part of the classes. Good and generous people. Its people like those I met this week who make the sport what it is. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
