EtherPilot 0 #1 November 8, 2012 I think it would help us AFFers to see a few videos posted by instructors or seasoned jumpers showing what is in their opinion, a great example of an arch in a video. Comments by the poster explaining why the skydiver's arch in the video is good would be appreciated. Personally, I'm most concerned about my arm position on jumps. I feel like my almost arms overhead arm position can best be described as what one would assume when saying "don't shoot!"If freefall lasted five minutes, skydiving would replace sex.

dthames 0 #2 November 9, 2012 Here you go. While maybe not the perfect arch, the student appears to be a seasoned jumper. http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLD09C169E443160D6&feature=plcp Not everyone has the same form. Your instuctors will help you in freefall if your form sucks.Instructor quote, “What's weird is that you're older than my dad!” Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
