Baby skydiver

[Ladybug 0]

Hi everybody,

I'm brand new to the sport and happy to be here. Just wanted to say hello and let you know that one more skydiver is reading all of your posts and finding it very entertaining.

I've jumped 13 times in the last three months and can't wait to get into the air again.

The people I work with think I'm crazy, and I don't care. I have weekly bruises on the insides of my arms and thighs (my student harness is too big and beats the hell out of me on opening). Can't wait to get my own rig!

Take care and blue skies!

Hey, Ladybug, welcome to the forums. Hope you were able to keep your head down and your feet dry with all the weather through FL lately!

Head down and feet dry yes. If only we could have kept the 50' pine from slapping the back of our house and tearing up the framework for our back porch. Could have been worse. Hate to use good jump money for repairs.

Welcome to the sport and the forums. Good luck with finishing up on your "A" and get to some boogies

Spoken like a true skydiver....welcome to the family.

Speak to your local big boys about the rig fit....you should not be having these problems with the bruising and openings even in a student rig.

My reality and yours are quite different.
I think we're all Bozos on this bus.
