ifics 0 #1 September 14, 2003 I have been lurking around here for awhile and decided its time to get into the mix. I just did my 6th jump today, the prob is I failed my level 4 twice so in actuality I just passed to level 5 today. I failed the first 2 times for a couple reasons, first time is a result of me kinking (sp) my back instead of rotating it for my turn. The 2nd time I spun right instead of left because I had one arm lower then it should of been I was a tad frustrated but I know that it was important for me to get those down b4 I move on. I fixed all that in my jump today and I am ready and waiting to move on up. I have the "bug" all I can think about is skydiving, its hands down the best thing I could ever do (as I am sure you all know) oh and yes I did buy everyone a case of beer after my first jump See you all around....

AggieDave 6 #4 September 15, 2003 Hey, you didn't fail shit! You just have another opportunity to really learn something fully! Never think of it as fail, think of it as learning skills that will only help you as a skydiver, so you may just need to practice the skill some more. The first time you picked up a basketball did you hit the basket, swish the net and score 2 points? I doubt it!--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

ifics 0 #5 September 15, 2003 I agree with you as well. Even on my second fail if they had givin me the opportunity to move on I wouldn't of taken it. I needed to get those skills down and as a result my level 4 went awesome!! Skydiving, Nothing like it......
