BounceEasy 0 #1 March 16, 2006 Hola, I just wanted to see if anyone had any form of structured training program. It would be cool to see what new/experienced flyers hoped to accomplish and how that reality matched their expectations. ^^ buenos dias If you walk, just walk. If you sit, just sit.

mattjw916 2 #2 March 16, 2006 What you choose to work on in the tunnel depends largely on what your goals are. Do you use tunnel flight as a vehicle for improving your skydiving skills or just for the personal gratification of flying your body? Are you interested in RW (formation skydiving), freefly, freestyle, or ? There is an organization that has set forth a tunnel progression that will help you learn in a safe and logical manner. Their website is here: http://www.tunnelflight.com/ Personally, I work on a bit of everything. I have goals of course, but they will take time to achieve and when I get to that point, I'll probably set some new goals. So I doubt I'll ever say that I am "done" working on a particular skill. There's always room for improvement.NSCR-2376, SCR-15080 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rehmwa 2 #4 March 17, 2006 We're starting the 4way season with a 12 hour camp (7 skydivers) in early April organized/coached by a good friend. For my 4way team - Basic individual skills progression to start (1 on 1 coaching with a pro) followed by 4way stuff as follows: Stop drills verticals stop drills block review stop drills maybe some stop drills some goofing off if possible some training in B slots too.... stop drills if we have time whatever it takes, The big keys for us is to get a rhythm based on precision, get our weight requirememts figured out, and a bunch of air time together then we can add in speed and power as we recover from the winter off. I suspect with time sharing we'll each have 4 or 5 hours of flying time over 3 days this is typical for a season starter for us - what's missing is the mid season tunnel camp and coaching we always need - I'm hoping to do that this year even better, we have a new teammate and this will give him a head start on the season and we can have video for the mockery ... 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
