Yeah, Jawbone II and Jawbone prime are both good headsets...I just seem to be able to get better volume out of the motorola...they're both great tho...

Riiiight...people are like "so, you finally went skydiving...something you can cross off your list now, right?" Before I ever jumped i thought it may just be something I'd experience in life...now i just think about those few minutes over and over and over...a black girl i work with now just refers to me as the "crazy white girl!" hahaha!

Hey Hey! I work for at&t mobility...i know that i personally prefer motorola bluetooths. I've used pretty much every bluetooth we sell right now and Motorolas always seem to have the best sound for me...The Motorola Pure H15 is what i'm using right now. It runs about $120 but has great noise cancellation to block out wind and background noise around you. People i'm talking to usually don't even know i'm on a bluetooth...Try it out on a jump and lets see just how good the wind blocking is, lol!! Anyways...that's my 2 cents...

Thank you!! I cant wait to do my next jump...i feel like it will go much better! The encouragement on this site is just awesome! Trying to talk to family and people i work with just drives them crazy and they can't understand the feeling you get from doing this! Nice to talk to people who can relate!!!

hey! i'd love to post it! i am having trouble actually loading the video at the moment, but the link is http://vimeo.com/4712582 the first 3 and a half minutes is a promo for Freefall Express...my jump is right after that! I welcome any thoughts on it!! I've learned a lot just by watching it so much!

hey, i can definitely relate! i just did my first aff jump and the freefall was unbelievable!! the canopy ride on the other hand...i guess it was just slow enough for me to realize i was alone up there and the flapping sound of either the chute or the riser right over my head really seemed to distract me... let me know when you do your next jump and how it goes! my dz is a ways away from me so i'm afraid i'm not going to be jumping as frequently as i wish!!good luck!!

Hi All-- Just did my first AFF Jump 6 days ago and can NOT get it out of my head!! (Familiar feeling for all reading this, i'm sure! ) I took my class back on April 4th but due to high winds was not able to jump that day. The DZ where i took my class is about 4 and a half hours away so this past Sunday, May 17, was the first chance i had to get back up there...I think my hyper-obsessing for a month and a half actually helped me to be well prepared. :) The jump was AMAZING! I did learn thru watching my video that i turned my palm forward when throwing my pilot so it had to work itself off the front of my arm quickly. My only other issue was landing..i flared about 8 feet too high and didn't flare all the way. I still had an okay landing, but did fall forward to my knees...next time will have more faith in the flare and wait a second longer. Anyways...looking forward to more jumps and hope to find a DZ a little closer so i can jump more often...even though i have to say i love everyone up at freefall express in mount vernon! look forward to many jumps and a lot of great info on here!! :) Maria Once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been and there you long to be. -Leonardo DaVinci
