My friend decided not to jump with me :(
rs2kmk5 replied to ttoy's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I did my FJC with a mate, but then I decided to continue - he decided he wanted a motor bike and license, LOL. He sold the bike after about 18 months, but still hasn't made the commitment to come back jumping. Each to their own eh. You'll enjoy it just as much without your buddy -
I've only 40 jumps to my name, but cant stop thinking about it. It is an addiction - there's no other word to describe chasing that 'buzz'. Everything else just seems mundane Out of 10,000 feet of fall, always remember that the last half inch hurts the most — Captain Charles W. Purcell, 1932

Argentinian buddy taught me something along the lines of 'conche de tu madre' - the cunt of your mother (or similar)! Out of 10,000 feet of fall, always remember that the last half inch hurts the most — Captain Charles W. Purcell, 1932

Continue AFF? Honest Feedback Please!
rs2kmk5 replied to Melissa76's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Take the FJC and see how you feel. The best way to get confident is to drill, drill, and drill over and over again. Make the jump second nature in your mind, and your body will follow your mind. Ask questions if you're unsure about ANYTHING, and dont feel awkward asking questions. Everyone started somewhere, no one was a born skydiver. As said, the most important thing is to have fun and stay safe. If it's not fun, somethings wrong. Anxiety is natural in this situation. I went up yesterday without eating and had real bad 'acid' for hours after - the adrenaline / anxiety just messes with you! Try and eat, nothing major, but something in your stomach will definately help. Bit like going on a ferry or large boat - empty stomach = big gut trouble HTH Out of 10,000 feet of fall, always remember that the last half inch hurts the most — Captain Charles W. Purcell, 1932 -
I kinda disagree with you on this one. There are some people out there who if they did a tandem could, and I emphasise could, be put off from doing AFF. For this very reason I chose AFF - on the understanding that if I didn't like it, I could still say that I'd skydived, and was in control of myself from jump / pull height down. It's upto the individual if you ask me - and if the individual is honest with themselves about coping with pressure etc they should be able to answer the question 'AFF or tandem for first jump?' themselves.

How old were you when you started skydiving?

I was 31, and again, wish I'd started at 21 Limited jump numbers due to work and £££, oh and a broken ankle in L2, pmsl Out of 10,000 feet of fall, always remember that the last half inch hurts the most — Captain Charles W. Purcell, 1932 -
I had this the first time I spent time in the tunnel, and anticipated it the next 3 times I visited, but it didnt happen I reckon it has to be down to the amount of fresh air (as opposed to just recirulated) the tunnel is using. IIRC the first time I was there, it seemed colder in the flight chamber..?? Out of 10,000 feet of fall, always remember that the last half inch hurts the most — Captain Charles W. Purcell, 1932

Anyone got 3.2 million for a NEW Twin Otter 400
rs2kmk5 replied to Anvilbrother's topic in The Bonfire
Do you really only need 3.2 milli? - pm me and I'll see what I can do As for getting a jump in today, done that - but not out of a plane ! Booked me and two buddies into our local wind tunnel for 30 mins on wednesday, so that should be cool (they've never skydived or been in the tunnel). Merry Christmas guys an gals, love from England.

Yup - that sure is PC. Now, happy holidays one and all If that offends anyone, then go fuck yourself

Nice one - well done, and well done on kicking out those pesky line twists. I had the very same experience on my level 1 jump, and I agree with your statement on making you better in the long run. Hope the rest of the course goes well for you, and happy holidays. Out of 10,000 feet of fall, always remember that the last half inch hurts the most — Captain Charles W. Purcell, 1932

Me and my SO are in Paris 12/31 to 5/1 The Champs Elyssee on NYE is worthwhile if you like hundreds of thousands of people to see the new year in with you. Last time we were there (3 years ago), we just headed off to a small restaurant and sank a bottle of champagne afterwards... Cant understand why people say stay away - I'm English and know as well as anyone how arrogant the French can be but you just have to play them at their own game Out of 10,000 feet of fall, always remember that the last half inch hurts the most — Captain Charles W.

I took out a 15 year policy which pays like $400000 if I die however the cause (dont really need larger amount than that as I'm mortgage free, and have no children). I checked after I'd taken out the policy (forgot to ask before ) re me skydiving, flying etc etc and they said death is death - what caused it barring suicide was irrelevant Yay for me too - well apart from being dead, but hey who worries so much about that?

Madness was never 'ska' - more like pop music at the time - but very good pop music at that. Bit of reading for ya's if interested. http://www.bbc.co.uk/stoke/features/2004/11/ska_anniversary_1.shtml IMO The Specials exemplified late 70's / early 80's ska - 'a message to Rudy' is and always will be awesome.
