  1. Anyone can fall from an aircraft, after a while it's like you're just punching holes in the sky and it can get quite boring. Once you really learn to fly your body the challenge/ rush now comes from how much can you do in the little time you have in your jump. Sit / freak flying is fun and a great way to learn what your body can do in the air, but you are still by yourself. RW is fun because you have a plan with other jumpers from the very beginning of your jump to the very end. In order to pull it off, you have to nail it and stay with it the entire dive. RW is a challenge not only in flying your own body, but in cooperation with a team of jumpers who are docking on each other, or turning points, or what ever. it can even be a mixture of RW and freak flying. Try it out. If you get with some experienced jumpers who don't have to big an ego are patient teachers as well, I guarantee your flying abilities will become better than you could ever imagine and your love of skydiving will never end. Blue skies!
