FliegendeWolf 0 #1 September 8, 2002 I completed level V yesterday. It took me two jumps to do, but I did it. I was having problems with the forward motion. On my first attempt, instead of going forward, I ended up turning. At that point, I tensed up, flattened out, and never regained stability. I bailed at 6200. The next time I went up, I was still having trouble with it, but eventually was able to redock with the Jumpmaster. Since my 360's were great on the first go around, he passed me. On to level VI! Also, I was cleared from radio yesterday as well. I'm starting to get the hang of landing, which is great. Although I was really really annoyed to watch a level I jumper land on tiptoes!! Also, my girlfriend made her first tandem. She was planning on jumping right into AFF, but about an hour into the ground school, she decided to do a tandem first. Unfortunately, she didn't like her Tandemmaster, which is too bad because she had really gotten to know and like some of the other ones when she came to hang out with me in the past. Finally, Ali and I spent the night, which was the beer time that I had stayed for the apres-dive festivities. I was just a little bit woozy when I woke up this morning, you can probably imagine...A One that Isn't Cold is Scarcely a One at All Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FliegendeWolf 0 #3 September 8, 2002 I know, I know ... and when I am reminded in freefall to relax it works wonders. The problem is that I'm a very tense person by nature. I'm usually not all that relaxed on the ground, let alone in freefall!A One that Isn't Cold is Scarcely a One at All Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
