shermanator 4 #5 June 28, 2008 I have 14,000 jumps, with lots of experience, and lots of good sensible advice to add; however, I'm not an instructor, so I won't because people only want titles. CLICK HERE! new blog posted 9/21/08 CSA #720 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baksteen 84 #21 June 30, 2008 You illegitimate child of a lovemaking Newb! I have the skygod skillz, you are not worthy of my tutelage and lucky if I'll even condescend to let you get on the plane with me. Talkj to me after you got over a thousand jumps, maybe I'll entertain the notion of possibly teaching you something then. Even then, do not expect any coaching or advice from me except if you're willing to pay the exorbitant price I will demand of you, which is subject to be raised at my whim (blame inflation) for I am Skygod. But make sure you buy your beer if you make a first after some unintelligent-posterior wasted some of their time teaching you the basics for even though you are not wortyh yet of being talked to by ME, drink your beer I will. --- Just thought I'd offer another viewpoint "That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hookitt 1 #24 June 30, 2008 Quote I think you should downsize. Just be careful. According to dropzone dot com, that is the wrong answer. You should never downsize... I mean seriously why would you want to? Question from newbishlikebutnotquite new: skydiver:I'm interested in downsizing someday, I've got 350 jumps and a 1 to 1 wingload. I've take canopy control courses by Brian Germaine and Scott Miller and Ian Drennan is on staff here. I've completed all the tasks succesfully on the checklist Billvon wrote out. After learning some CRW, I can back spin my canopy for days, stall it and "fly" backwards. I'm sure there's more but I'm ready to move on. I'm interested in perhaps a Sabre2 at a 1.3 wingload for now. Any suggestions? Answer from a good portion of the dzdotcominternetskydivers: Why would you want to downsize before experiencing boredom for several hundred more jumps?My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry...
