Viking 0 #1 August 15, 2001 Well here it is my lvl 5 jump First was the exit then Mike was holding on so he could keep up with me then mike let go and i proceeded to geek the camera but not by choice...jesus look at my legs!! . I corrected and faced mike he promptly told me to do a 360 and when i came around i used my legs to help stop. I then i went back to my freakish arch look at that whole under the rig!!!!YAY BABY!!! After two turns my alti was at 6grand so i waved off and deployed my manta 288 my landing was a butt bounce to a stand up and a smile!!! Remember when Sex was safe and skydiving was Dangerous?

Viking 0 #12 August 15, 2001 even though i am new to the sport i am pretty sure i could hit atleast 170 if i really tucked in. but thats a LONG way from now. for now i have to figure out how to slow the hell down so i can jump other people and not go low on them.Remember when Sex was safe and skydiving was Dangerous?

xybe 0 #14 August 15, 2001 QuoteDude what is that pouch that u have on your waist?mmmh, a flotation device, maybe?Hey, Viking, we could jump together, I fall like a rock with the added weight and hightly aerodinamic belly (I think it creates inverted lift, it's like an upside-down airfoil).MarceloStill shedding whuffo-nessCheck out the Hardcore Whuffo pages Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ninja 0 #16 August 15, 2001 Dude that is awesome style there with that arch. I really like it!At first I was really trying to arch with my back but then my instructors told me to arch with my hip and legs more so I think I got somewhat of an arch like that too. Im not sure though. I need some video and pictures! But it looks totally cool! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katzeye 0 #21 August 15, 2001 *155* - eh? Is that SAS or TAS?Your arch looks great! Once you get through AFF, you will probably flatten out a bit. Concentrate on your mobility while in a nice arch. Speed is nice, so you will always have that!Blue Skies!Katzeye Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
