Amy-P 0 #1 July 14, 2006 I want to relax and have fun but the thought of smashing my face off the plane on the way down or landing on my face makes me want to run away and never look back . What if i some how get tangled in it or i start spining out of control.------------------------------------------------------- The Wolf howled from under the leaves while spiting fine feathers from his feast of fowl like him I devour myself*Jim Morrison* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AFFI 0 #2 July 14, 2006 Listen to your instructors and no one else. So yourself a favor, don't read any advice here until after your jump tomorrow. Listen to your instructors and no one else. Listen to your instructors and no one else. Listen to your instructors and no one else. Listen to your instructors and no one else. Listen to your instructors and no one else.

sundevil777 102 #5 July 14, 2006 I think you're probably bouncing off their walls right now like a pinball machine, eh? Pretty cool feeling... What should you know? Just know that it will be OK...People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tcnelson 1 #6 July 14, 2006 Quotethank you im just scared any advice on how to chill yeah...look at the faces of other skydivers when they land and say to yourself, "this is gonna be fun!" enjoy your first jump!"Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rehmwa 2 #7 July 14, 2006 As I understand it, you should just listen to your instructor. That's what I hear. {you never know who's going to give advice on here) ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LawnDart21 0 #8 July 14, 2006 QuoteListen to your instructors and no one else. Listen to your instructors and no one else. Okay, not technically.....lol, if she takes your advice and only listens to her instructors as a result, hasn't she technically broken your advice by listening to you in the first place and taking your advice? -- My other ride is a RESERVE.

jlmiracle 7 #9 July 14, 2006 why would you smash your face on the airplane, that would be difficult and it would hurt. Don't do that and you will be fine.Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

matthias 0 #12 July 16, 2006 If your doing a tandem, thats the safest way to go. Just enjoy the ride. If your doing AFF: PULL! PULL AT THE RIGHT ALTITUDE! PULL STABLE! LAND SAFELY UNDER AN OPEN CANOPY! Like everyone else: Listen to your instructor, or pull the S&TA off to the side for a talk if they aren't busy. Smile, and have fun._________________________________________ trance/house mixes for download: www.djmattm.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
