Remember to tighten the straps again when you're in the plane about to exit. They tend to loosen up on the ride up. I had the same problem with the bruising when I was doing AFF & I learned to tighten my leg straps as tight as they would go. Good luck, I hope it works out better for you. ======================= "What I want is what I've not got ,but what I need is all around me"-DMB Meghan

Come to Skydive Jersey Shore! ======================= "What I want is what I've not got ,but what I need is all around me"-DMB Meghan

Hi Leigh, I'm not from Florida, although I used to live there. But hello from New Jersey----I hope you love your first jump---there's no way you won't love it!

WHOA! How'd this post start up again?!

Buy your husband a gift certificate to do a tandem the same day as you. Then you can both enjoy it together! :) ======================= "What I want is what I've not got ,but what I need is all around me"-DMB Meghan

Hey Andrew Yeah, that would be really fun. I'm going to try to do some jumps on Sunday (weather permitting). Will you be jumping again before the end of the season? I haven't seen you out there since...was it July? ======================= "What I want is what I've not got ,but what I need is all around me"-DMB Meghan

Well, I finally graduated AFF, 16 months & 11 days after my first tandem. I'm so excited & can't wait to do my first "I don't have to do anything at all except pull" jump. lol Now, if I could just improve on timing my flare... Yippee! ======================= "What I want is what I've not got ,but what I need is all around me"-DMB Meghan

I completely understand how you feel. I was much more nervous on my second jump than on my first. I only have 11 now, but I'm not really nervous anymore. I think the jitters went away around jump 7. I found if I close my eveys about 10 seconds before DOOR! and take a few deep breaths, it help a lot. I also try not to look out the door at jumpers exiting before me--that still freaks me out a little. Just concentrate on how great it's going to be and tell yourself "I did it before, I can do it again". And try to keep your jumps close together--the more time that goes by in between jumps, the more nervous you'll be. Good luck!!! :) ======================= "What I want is what I've not got ,but what I need is all around me"-DMB Meghan

lol, nope, have to agree...I never heard of them either. Ever had a doggie bowl, those are good....shots served in a big dog bowl with lots of straws. Yummy! ======================= "What I want is what I've not got ,but what I need is all around me"-DMB Meghan

I saw him this past summer at a small bar near me. He was so funny I couldn't stop laughing the entire time. Especially when he did goat boy... :) ======================= "What I want is what I've not got ,but what I need is all around me"-DMB Meghan

Dave Letterman asked her if she's do it again & she was kind of hesitant. I don't thinked she's hooked like most of us here... ======================= "What I want is what I've not got ,but what I need is all around me"-DMB Meghan

That's really nice....sometimes I feel the same way! :) ======================= "What I want is what I've not got ,but what I need is all around me"-DMB Meghan
