Surferd00d 0 #1 July 6, 2007 Hi everyone totally new over here! Anyways I had one of those spur of the moments type decision, I woke up yesterday and did a search for 'Skydiving in California' and today I signed up for an AFF First Jump Course for this Saturday... Not sure why I'm doing this though, kind worried about it, but I got a buddy who is tagging along and doing a tandem jump that same day... Should be a fun, exciting and traumatic weekend huh?

Surferd00d 0 #4 July 8, 2007 OMFG!!! My first jump was a success, I have a slight fear of heights, but I'm surprised how smooth things went... ie I didnt pass out, and more importantly I could actually think up in the air and perform the basic tasks I was told to do... The first 2 seconds wasnt terrifying, it was just... weird.. it was like the most unnatural feeling ever, took a few seconds for my brain to register just WTF was going on hahahaha!!! Well that being said its too bad I have a busy week ahead of me, I have to work this Saturday, so my level 2 Jump is next Sunday, then the following weekend after that I am gonna see how many levels I can kill in a weekend...

Surferd00d 0 #6 July 11, 2007 Lake Elsinore its only about 2 hours away, I'm headed back there on Sunday and hopefully go through AFF lvl 2,3 and however many more I can do in one day provided the weather is good. As for the Stumps, its really not too bad a place, been stationed there for over 4 years, and I'm PCSing to Lejeune in a month and a half from now!
