  1. Thanks to everyone for your input! So.. I ended up doing tandem progression for two more jumps due to anxiety, then level 1 solo.. which went great! My DZO decided I needed only one JM for level 2... which freaked me out lol.. I ended up psyching myself out and had major stability issues. Just rejumped level2 sunday and was able to GRIN and be more relaxed (still with one JM), stayed pretty stable but struggled with turning. I'm just thrilled that I was able to enjoy it and start to relax though instead of panicking!!
  2. Hey nice to hear from another Okie lol... and absolutely lets' do it! Ever get up to Cushing?
  3. Ok I should probably add here that my AFF Lv1 was tandem progression... Did great in class but I do have major "dooooor" panic so I was afraid to do it without my TI/AFFI who has made my experince phenomenal so far. After the jump he said I was a few levels above where I should be and that I'm not giving myself enough credit ; and I was much less terrorized when the door flew open but now thinking about going to Lv 2 this weekend not in tandem gets me really anxiety ridden. I guess I'm afraid I'm somehow going to start spinning and tumbling if he and my other AFFI lose hold of me and then I'm going to really panic! Any advice?
  4. I'm doing my training at Oklahoma Skydiving Center... know it?
  5. Thanks so much and blue skies to you too!Quote
  6. Hi everyone.. I did my first tandem two weeks ago, second tandem a week after that and just did AFF 1 this past weekend! Yes I am spending all of money but as silly as this sounds I feel like I've found what I didn't realize I was missing! Not only am I ecstatic about the sport but also feel like I am quickly making new wonderful friends. I had been putting off doing a tandem for years because I could never get anyone to do it with me and finally decided to stop waiting and go by myself.. why did I wait so long? Anyway, just wanted to say hello and am hoping to meet new friends... Happy jumping!
