k2everest 0 #1 June 23, 2011 Flying a canopy, Landing, getting back from a bad spot, packing, body flight, judging wind direction? What is your weak point in skydiving? Some other weakness? What are you doing to remedy the problem? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glitch 0 #2 June 23, 2011 My wallet... To remedy, I'm considering divorce since she refuses to get a 3rd job. Randomly f'n thingies up since before I was born... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
countzero 7 #3 June 23, 2011 currently- my distance from the stack when I come off the top during rotes. I know I can fly tighter. remedy- striving to improve on every jump, getting advice from more experienced dawgs. no matter what the disipline, there is always something to learn and improve upon. that's what makes skydiving so fun- imodiamonds are a dawgs best friend Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shah269 0 #4 June 23, 2011 Landing, not giving it 100% input. Solution, jump more. Problem....freaking rain and $$$$Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay. The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjosparky 4 #5 June 23, 2011 QuoteWhat are you doing to remedy the problem? The solution to all of those problems is the same. Spend time learning from those around you and making jumps. Nothing improves performance better than practice. SparkyMy idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 273 #6 June 23, 2011 A severe lack of trust in my fellow jumpers to not kill or injure me under canopy and a serious lack of respect for those tasked with keeping the sky and landing area relatively safe. Since I can't/won't sue a fellow jumper, USPA won't do a damn thing about canopy control issues and nobody cares what I think, I've remedied the situation by not jumping, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hokierower 0 #7 June 24, 2011 Everything. I only have 28 jumps so there's a shit load to learn. It'll only take time to get better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deisel 38 #8 June 24, 2011 Time. Damn War on Terror keeps getting in the way of my jumping. The brave may not live forever, but the timid never live at all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
