  1. Hello all, Anyone have any information on jumping in Ecuador. I'll be moving there for work in August and was hoping to continue to jump as often as I can. I've found a DZ I think on the coast there, but not much information about it. Peru will be my neighbor, buts it not exactly close. Thanks for any help. Rob
  2. Thanks so much for all the info! I really think a canopy course would help me out and to really do some practice flares up high to feel it before I land. Thanks again, folks!
  3. Hello all, I am a recent A License grad now with 32 jumps under my belt. During my training, I landed on my feet about half of the time. Since I've gotten my license, I've jumped at 3 different DZs and with different rental gear. I'm having a problem with my landings. Most of the time I flare 1,2,3, then end up sliding, never feeling like my flare has given me enough to stand up. ON my last jump I flared too early, went back to the 2 position, then finished at 3, landed on my feet, then PLFed! Not a hard landing, but not on my feet like I wanted. Could anyone give me some tips, pointers, any advice I could try? I'm jumping mainly on Sabre 2 and Sapphires around the 230 canopy range.
  4. Hello all! My name is Rob and I got my A License on June 30th at Skydive Chicago. I live just outside of NYC at the moment, so I've jumped at Skydive Jersey Shore and Skydive Carolina (parents live near there) the last few months. I've got 30 jumps under my belt and I'm definitely hooked.
