  1. Hi ketia...Welcome to the sport.The advice I would give you is listen to your instructers,Practice your arch when you can,go to the mock up of the plane and go threw the whole dive. exit, arch visualise the dive.My instructers gave me the best advice when they said what you do and say on the ground is what you will do in the air.And do not get down on yourself it was your first solo things will click give it some time.If it will make you feel better my first aff dive i did not do anything rite did not respond to commands no wave off at 5,500 and i did not even pull when given the command to do so the instructer pulled for me at about 3,500 feet.To top it all off the primary jumpmaster had a malfunction and choped very low he landed off the dz so needless to say i was not very popular.But I stuck with it threw thick and thin asked a lot of questions.I am a newbie to the sport but there are men and women on this sight with thousands of jumps and a wealth of knowledge that are willing to share it if asked.Well sorry if I am rambling Ilike this sport so much and the people you meet so remember have fun and listen to those sky gods out there.....BLUES Smile,pull,land

  7. I was wondering if there will ever be another free fall convention.I purchased a dvd about the one in 2002 looked awesome with all the different aircraft to jump out of and all the different people that attended.one can only hope maybe in the future there will be one. Smile,pull,land

  21. You realy have to have balance if your spouse does not jump.Mine will not but she likes everyone there and my son likes to ride his bike around the dz.it is like having the biggest backyard for a young kid.Find out what your wife would like to do and her intersets and help her pursue it.
