caelestis 0 #1 September 22, 2004 Made my first tandem jump about a month ago and it was the best thing I have ever done. A buddy of mine (ifall) convinced me to do it by showing me his fisrt jump video. On my first jump I had an awesome instructor name Jerry. I'm making my second jump this weekend! I can't wait to make my first solo! I can't help thinking, "why didn't I do this sooner!!" I look forward to meeting more skydivers! Big or little, thick or thin, Vaseline will get it in! ha! ha! ha!

Morcyk 0 #3 September 23, 2004 Whoa, he got you to want to try it by watching his jump video? I had people that wanted to go on the next jump (after my first) and when I showed them the video they told me no way in hell. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caelestis 0 #4 September 23, 2004 Thanks for the welcome! Sensory overload? I couldn't get enough! I just kept wishing I would sprout wings so I could stay up there longer, but that didn't happen... Big or little, thick or thin, Vaseline will get it in! ha! ha! ha! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caelestis 0 #5 September 23, 2004 I think what convinced about jumping was the size of his grin in the video and how it seems to return everytime he talks about it. I now have the same grin!! Big or little, thick or thin, Vaseline will get it in! ha! ha! ha! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caelestis 0 #8 September 28, 2004 Made my second jump so now on to level 3 level now! Yee-haw!! Gosh it seemed like I had remember quite a bit, but luckily I got the same instructor so that eased me a bit. I'm hoping to make my next jump in a couple of weeks. It just keeps getting better and better!! Big or little, thick or thin, Vaseline will get it in! ha! ha! ha! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
