StreetScooby 5 #1 August 17, 2009 I took Brian's canopy control course this weekend at The Ranch. It was a life changing experience for me. Brian gives vocabulary, experience, ideas as part of his course. It's like being under a water fall, there's so much information there. And, it doesn't stop Thank you, Brian.We are all engines of karma Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I call to ask about the Samurai and when I should expect my canopy and I end up in a 2 hour talk about everything. I hope to take a course by him one of these days. I true gentleman and teacher! Glad you had great time.If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shah269 0 #3 August 24, 2009 Same here! I took his class at Sussex. Unfortunately I couldn't take the second day due to a lack of transportation but that being said I feel so much more comfortable now than I ever did! I took about 20 pages of notes and my head was just so full after day one that I couldn't sleep! As a student I feel that everyone should take this class, unless your some sort of wonder sky god who feels super comfy under canopy. Great class, can’t wait to read the book! Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay. The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools!

AndyMan 7 #5 September 1, 2009 I'm a big fan of Brian's courses - I encourage everyone I meet to take his courses, no matter how many jumps you've got. He's a great teacher. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rhanold 0 #7 September 14, 2009 I do not know how much he charges but as for your other question I will stand in line with the others in this thread and tell you it was well worth it. Very relaxed atmosphere and very very enlightening. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FataMorgana 0 #12 December 14, 2012 I concur. I took Brian’s two day course at Virginia Skydiving Canter and left truly inspired not only by Brian’s in-depth knowledge but also unmatched perspective on skydiving and risks associated with it. Plus, we also had a lot of fun doing it. Thank you, Brian.The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.

The SkydiveRadio.com podcasts are also a hugely valuable source of information The amount of knowledge necessary to be a safe skydiver can seem insurmountable, but if you keep on learning, you will get what you need. Just remember why you are doing it, and you will have all the motivation you need.Instructional Videos:www.AdventureWisdom.com Keynote Speaking:www.TranscendingFEAR.com Canopies and Courses:www.BIGAIRSPORTZ.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
