StearmanR985 0 #1 August 27, 2005 So I have laid off jumping for 10 months, some of you know this. But I have temporarily moved to our sister winery which is located under the route of the Lodi plane. I can hear it, it is calling...... Should I rent some gear and let it rip during my lunch break? Wonder what it would be like after 10 months.....? J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wishintobe 0 #2 August 27, 2005 Well I'm a newbie and I don't know why you took 10 months off but I say hell yes go for it and then let us all know how it was! Just my 2 cents! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Airman1270 0 #3 August 27, 2005 With 800 jumps in 23 years, I know all about long layoffs. You'll do just fine. Do a solo or a small way with people who know the situation. If you're like me, you'll feel just a tad more nervous, but that's all. Enjoy! Cheers, Jon S. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mdrejhon 8 #5 August 28, 2005 Due to winter, Canadians do it all the time, every year! Okay, 6 months per year, but... Though I'd probably rent a canopy one size bigger at first, and do a real simple high-altitude solo on a nice stable medium-wind day. But I disgress. Talk to the dropzone.

Peej 0 #6 August 28, 2005 The first time you get out of the plane it all comes back again! I doubt you'd be able to just go, rent gear and jump in this country. When i came back from a six month layoff i had to do a recurrency jump with an instructor. Almost like a L7 AFF. Advertisio Rodriguez / Sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nickkk 0 #8 September 9, 2005 Yeah, howd it go? What do you do when someone throws a big planet at you? Throw your pilot chute in defense! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
