jaffo 0 #1 September 14, 2010 I was at a world renowned DZ this year and found it hard to do RW. Ahhh the days of our lives.... I'm a belly flyer in the wrong century....Just like I'm a Cowboy without a steely horse....Take chances, just do it with all the information to make good decisions!!

pinkfairy 0 #2 September 14, 2010 The trick is getting the new people straight off AFF hooked by jumping with them. This seems to work at my home DZ and we've got a good population of up and coming RWers. If you go to a DZ away from home, I think you should look for somewhere that offers organizing. That helps. What about trying freefly? I did, and it's fun. See if you can find time and money to do some coached freefly jumps, it's worth it. Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet. I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gators1240 9 #3 September 14, 2010 QuoteThe trick is getting the new people straight off AFF hooked by jumping with them. I agree. I just got off of aff about 2 weeks ago and had planned on advancing my belly skills a little while and then get into free flying. I had no intentions of doing rw at all. But then I made a few jumps with some people and I have to say I'm hooked. And will continue trying to get better with rw as fast as I can Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There were 59 4-way teams and 20 8-way teams up in Chicago!"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.
