"one can only learn through practice and -- (hopefully not) -- mistakes" That's exactly right, but it's good to make mistakes too. I'm still new too...just finished AFF 12/31/01. But I find the more I jump...the more I understand what NOT to do next time on landings. I flare too early as well, but once you start the flare...don't let up, that's what I've been told. But the best thing to do is like what everyone else has said...prepare to PLF. Hope your ankle heals SOON...so ya can skydive!! Terri What you "think" you cannot do ...you CAN if you "think" about it

The Synergy was WAY different than the Crossfire. First pull was good...a little line twist but ok Certainly it was not as responsive as the Crossfire..given. But...very whippy for a newbie such as myself up high. I struggled quiite a bit at flare time...i'm right handed...and my left just wasnt doing the power. It was markedly different from the Crossfire in the flare in that I actuallly had to use some "power" in my arms to make it happen. Comparison? The Synergy has great response movements up high without much effort....however...at landing... I found that I needed to take all my "muscle" to get the flare in For whatever it's wortth from a novice at the sport.... : ) What you "think" you cannot do ...you CAN if you "think" about it

Unlike your packer...mine is 18...and I dont want to take advantage of her...she jumps too! Mind you...SHE (my packer) lands at the peas!!! Good grief Charlie Brown...think I should have tipped her for packing a new canopy in a speedy fashion?. me feel bad : ( BTW: Her name is Karen at SkyDance. Wonderful person!

That's a very good point. Thanks for the advice. I think I should have tipped my packer last Sunday when she packed a canopy that is VERY new...only like 2 jumps on it. It was a Synergy (sp) 169 and the fabric was very different. I should have known then, when my canopy opened very nicely albeit a little line twist due to my spin *I believe* then I should have tipped her! She even asked me, how did it open? And I said Great!...so now I feel like a shit! Ettiquette question: Should I pay for her next jump ticket in lieu of the tip that I didn't give her?

I tried to keep my tongue in my mouth....aahhh...no comment from the peanut gallory!! If I can find that black & white pic...no wait....that was just in 2001...shit...I should be color then! What you "think" you cannot do ...you CAN if you "think" about it

I'm new to renting the rigs from my DZ and to having someone pack for me...since I haven't learned to pack yet. However, tomorrow I will be learning that skill...finally! But I feel bad that I didnt know until now that we should be tipping the packers for our main. I know this has nothing to do with the reserve...but thought I'd mention "I WILL NOW BE TIPPING MY PACKERS!" What you "think" you cannot do ...you CAN if you "think" about it

Great pic! Cloe is such a sweety! Wished I could have let her have that kitten, but don't think that would have gone over big at my house! LOL What you "think" you cannot do ...you CAN if you "think" about it

I have 2. Sarah is 21 & Terrence is 14. They watched me land on 9/29/01 on a high wind day. They were impressed that only after a few jumps, I managed to land even though I was drifting further away from my landing field ; ) But they too find the dz boring cuz there's nothing to do. Although my son would like to try it...he's not interested in watching my videos or hearing about my latest & greatest exits...or my bruises on my legs & knees. Sarah has NO desire whatsoever...but I think she's secretly thinking about it. What you "think" you cannot do ...you CAN if you "think" about it

Is that US dollars? Damn!! Well,if you were in SLC, they had a few places where they were actually buying & selling tickets...legit...and they were selling them for $1500. Good game I heard...didnt get to see it as Lummy & I were on the road coming home FROM Utah! What you "think" you cannot do ...you CAN if you "think" about it

BTW: The tickets for that game were going for $1500 each!! MORE than a ticket to the closing ceremonies!! Go figure! What you "think" you cannot do ...you CAN if you "think" about it

Well, that was EXTREMELY funny! We had practically dead silence, I was reading..an interesting book by the way about a secret agent man who underwent plastic surgery....uh...wait, that's another story!! But anyway, so Gary starts checking stations...and it was JUST hillarious to hear that phrase, "It's OK to be a redneck" HUH? well, that's a matter of opinion I believe. We both just cracked up in laughter....broke the silence for sure! So, as far as the CD player, we had one...built into the rental truck we had. Problem was, we pretty much went through all the CD's we brought! It was a great trip nonetheless...and we had a GREAT time in SLC! Men's slalom on Saturday was awesome!
