Yea ill let u guys know ho it goes, its gonna be after september 20th 2004. b/c im just gonna wait till i turn 18. The first DZ i went to was the only one in the area that lets 16 year olds with parental concent, and its like a 4 hour dirve lol. Im gonna go to the dundas dz near hamilton Ontario. And when i did pass otu the firast ime it was only for like 10-20 mid way thorugh the canopy ride.

YEE i guess i might do another tandem

i took my first tandem about a year ago, as soon as i turned 16. I havent gone since b/c of winter +$ problems. The jump went great untill the instructor pulled the chute. as we desended through the clouds i felt alot of pressure on my chest.(making it hard for me to breath.) I notified the instructor and he losened my thigh harnesses whioch made the problem worse, it felt like someone was standing on my chest. I PASSED OUT at abotu 3000ft. The instructor noticed and began to kick me to wake me up. at abotu 1000ft agl i became concious and got ready for the landing as i held my chest harness away form my chest to help breath. We landed fine, i srood up and collapsed i guess b/c i was so exhausted. did i hyperventalate or did my instructor tighten me up to much or..........MY QuestioN is, does this happen often?????? Anyways im only 17 and i hope to start skydiving this summer when i turn 18 but this incident has really discourged me.

yea i wont do it again, thanks for the advise, it was kinda one of those one time things.

how i did it was; gave her(cessna 152) full power brought the nose up to about 90degrees and pulled it back further and the plane went inverted, i got a massive right wing drop and used the ruder to recover since the wing was stalled. scared the shit out of probably wont do it agian. But i was just wondering if it is a risk doing a barel roll, b/c ive heard of so many pilots doing it????

Wow i inverted a cessna for the first time , huge wing drop. Any one ever experience being inverted in a cessna (other than the 150 areobat)????
