Nice one! Where was this photo taken? Byron? I'm surprised you exited that way. I was imagining a dive exit and riding down the hill. Did you try it that way also? Never try to skip a stage of natural progression...

No, you would! Never try to skip a stage of natural progression...

I want to give it a try. Has anyone ever tried it? Not sure how deployment would work without losing the board unless you custom make a handle on it. Obviously using a leash would be out of the question. Then flippers would come off for landing? Any thoughts? Never try to skip a stage of natural progression...

Advice - to jump or not to jump (with whiplash)
Carver replied to berec1's topic in Safety and Training
It's better to be on the ground wishing you were in the sky...than being in the sky wishing you were on the ground. Just some advice I received worth passing on. And wiplash could be pretty nasty combined with sever opening shock or a harsh landing. Never try to skip a stage of natural progression... -
Here's a mistake that I recently made concerning my vigil and was picked up by a concerned skydiver at my local dz. I am posting this here to raise awareness and hopefully preventing this mistake from being made again. Along with many other cool features and unlike Cypress the Vigil has 3 operating modes. Pro, student and tandem. These settings can be changed by the skydiver as they wish. Pro = fires at 840ft at 78+ mph Student = fires at 1040ft at 45+ mph Tandem = 2040ft at 78+ mph When I received my Vigil I did read over the instuctions carefully and then set it to student. At the time I was still only a novice so I didn't give the activation speeds too much consideration because my landing approaches where always long with flat turns. Now as my level is starting to increase some of my approaching speeds have also increased a little which could have possibly lead to vigil firing and me having 2 canopies out at a low altitude. It was pointed out to me that student mode is only for students. Tandem only for tandem. And pro for anything else. I mainly opted for the Student mode so that if I did get knocked out in free fall and vigil did save my arse then I would have a longer time under canopy to hopefully steer away from obsticles, head for home or kick out of line twists. It was also pointed out to me that the acivation height can be changed with with altitude correction but please do not do this without the aid of a DZSO or someone else in the know at the particular dz. I hope someone can get something out of this. Never try to skip a stage of natural progression...

*** I'm the one in pink What a great arch! I'll bet your average fall rate is pretty quick? Never try to skip a stage of natural progression... -
Try to get your AFF done all in one hit. The longer you leave it between jumps the more scrared you'll be when you head out to the DZ. Condense your learning. Fear is normal but don't let it worry you too much. Otherwise you wouldn't leave the plane. Never try to skip a stage of natural progression...

My decisions have been made already. I will be going 'all or nothing' and I know that. Whats important to me is owning a house seeing more of the world. So I have to change alot of things to achieve all of this. I'm a little apprehensive and it will be hard work but worth it! What I find interesting is how skydiving challenges us and pushes us to the fibre of our being. In and out of the sport. Cheers for your tales all!!

Good point, but I think maybe a little far fetched. I dont think they would can the sport over a collision. They would probaly tighten air restrictions for DZ's in the US. But what do I know. If he wants to his AFF, shit then he should it and let nothing get in his way. I was just trying to point out the financial side of things. Never try to skip a stage of natural progression...
