slotperfect 7 #1 May 12, 2002 After having the packet for a year, and working through schedule and examiner availability issues, I am finally a Strong Tandem Master!I made my three crossover jumps yesterday with John Hayes at The Skydiving Place in Parkton, NC. Thanks again to John and Kellie for the hospitality.Respectfully,SP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prost 0 #2 May 12, 2002 Congrats. I have been planning on getting my vector rating for a good while now. I will as soon as I can get back to my home dz. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkymonkeyONE 4 #3 May 13, 2002 John, did you get that Strong rating "just to have it", or are you going to go and work with John Hayes or the GB club some? As a Vector bitch, I am not sure why else you would want it. Kip has been on me to transition to Strong for quite some time, seeing as how we have both systems. Still, with SkyKat taking over the school, all I am going to be jumping is the Sigma.ChuckieMy webpage HERE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slotperfect 7 #4 May 13, 2002 Initially I sent for the Strong packet last year to work part-time for Brian (all he had at the time were Strong rigs). Of course, things have changed in several ways since then. I followed through with the rating to finish what I started.My intentions are to work part-time for Tony and Kate doing mostly tandems, some AFF, and demos. For now, I plan to jump the Sigma as much as I can. If it is in the air, I can now use the Strong rigs. Once they convert completely, I will use the Sigmas primarily, jumping a Strong often enough to stay current. I hope Tony keeps one just for that purpose.I will help John out when I can; they have great airplanes and a nice spot. I am really not interested in the clubs any more.Respectfully,SP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
