I did a road trip for it one time, only to have it cancelled. I wonder if I could have someone sign me off for it if I make an intentional nosedive into a swoop pond somewhere. j/kJustinMy Homepage Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites mountainman 0 #4 November 16, 2001 that San Carlos boogie looks like the schlit.....i wanna do that the year after next.Cervezas frias por todos!!--------------JumpinDuo.com is here!!!

That's the way it has always been even if your going from a to d. That's what I did and it's a pain to do 3 test in one day, it made my head hurt, but I passed all 3. At 360 jumps I figured it was time to spend the 20 bucks. You only pay for the 1 new license. I was also able to do night jumps with an A and over 100 jumps, but was it as per the SIMM. no. I love night jumps and now have over 20. There SO cool!The SIMM says to participate in night jumps you need to posses a b license. Many dz.'s will allow folks to make them if they have an A and say 90 jumps, but that not "by the book." jumpervali Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites canopycudler 0 #13 November 16, 2001 Ahhh.. water training..brrrrr. that was cold.. I actaully got that outta the way before i got my A.. We were supposed to have it in a heated pool, but how consindental... the HEATED pool was closed for the winter so we had to jump our asses into the freezing lake..... brrrrrr.. Glad that is outta the way!
