tigepigeon 0 #1 August 22, 2011 Last year, I took my mother sky diving for her 60th birthday, and got hooked! I started tandem progression then the winter came, then work, then wind and finally here we are. I took my ground school again at a new to me DZ sky dive 35. My instructor was Scott, and I have to give him a shout out because he did an over the top great job, and I know he spent more time with me than usual. Overall I was extremely impressed with skydive 35 in Texas. I felt guilty going to another drop zone for an aff jump after working with Scott, but skydive temple hours fit in a schedule. I drove the 3 hours down expecting 1 or 2 jumps, but that didn’t happen. Again I found another awesome drop zone! These guys stayed open until I finished my AFF. I got to jump 6 times, and it was probably one of the best days of my life! I really would like to thank my instructor windy for such a great effort, and also the owner Mark. The guy was very cool about getting me as many jumps as a needed! If you are thinking about going through AFF, and I would defiantly suggest Scott at skydive 35 (haven’t jumped there yet) or skydive temple. Great people, but more important they both have AC. Also, I was nervous about changing DZs during AFF, but I am not glad I did. I think it was good to hear different styles of instruction. I also learned different small peaces of advice from each different instructor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
