Ruffles 0 #1 October 25, 2004 My buddy and I have 100 or so jumps and thought that a good two way was being able to link up and turn a point or 2...(we sucked).That is primarily what our jumps have consisted of since jump 30. We bought an hour of tunnel time with a coach (Lou Lastra Navy-SEAL extraordinaire) and spent six hours going solo, 2-way, 3-way, reviewing video, creeping, and learning. Results: 3 days later, our first jump after the tunnel, we turned 10 points from 13.5. These consisted of 90s, 180s, and 360s. OH MY FRIGGIN' GOD!! We don't suck any more. Our exit was so smooth we even started the points while still half-way on the hill (something we never fathomed before). While your mileage may vary, keep in mind that my pal and I were WORSE than most other people at 100 jumps, at least as far as RW proficiency goes. I cannot sing the praises of this training enough, you would not believe how much it helped. I'm living proof. Airspeed here we come... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dumpster 0 #3 October 25, 2004 I highly reccomend it, too. My daughter had about an hour and a half in the tunnel before going through AFF, and right now at 28 jumps, she turned 12-14 points with us with no troubles. I've done coach jumps with students about her experience level and am amazed with the difference. My advice to anyone who wants to hone skills quickly, is to get an hour or so with some good coaching, and Orlando has it. And you don't neccesarily need to do a camp, just time with the coaches on hand will work wonders. Easy Does It Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
