slotperfect 7 #1 August 10, 2003 There was a suggestion that I chimed in on a while back about having a separate tandem forum. Please jump in and lend your support if you think the idea has merit!

andy2 0 #3 August 10, 2003 as someone who eventually wants to get his tandem rating I think this would be a great way to consolidate information into one place. The only thing is a moderator(s) would have to go through the other forums and move a bunch of information to the forum so continuity would be preserved. --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...

mikeat10500 12 #4 August 10, 2003 It had crossed my mind too! It would be nice to find all the tandem info in one place.----------------------------------- Mike Wheadon B-3715,HEMP#1 Higher Expectations for Modern Parachutists. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VanillaSkyGirl 6 #7 August 10, 2003 Just in case, I am also posting here. I have never done a tandem, so I would love to know more about them as they are a unique experience for many people. The "tandem forum" is a GREAT IDEA!

I think instead of just a Tandem forum, we should have an instructor forum. That way we wouldn't have excluded AFF, SL/IAD, or whatever.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

I agree with AggieDave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites riggerrob 643 #11 August 11, 2003 Funny, this reminds me of a conversation with another tandem instructor yesterday. We both hold multiple ratings - from different manufacturers - but wonder why the manufacturers are so secretive (i.e. reluctant to share information). I am sure that several of the tricks I have learned while jumping Strong equipment are readily transferable to Vector, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites bclark 0 #12 August 19, 2003 I think having a tandem forum is a swell idea.
