barbrarose 0 #1 June 11, 2007 Hi There. I am very new to the sport (8 jumps) and am looking for that book. Any thoughts on where to find it? Can't find it new or used anywhere - online or off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dharma1976 0 #5 June 11, 2007 the knowledge in this book has saved my life so many times that I am glad I bought it when I had 4 months to read it over and over and over again (aka I broke myself then bought the book and read it over and over again trying to learn how I fucked up and then learned some really good stuff as a result) Davehttp://www.skyjunky.com CSpenceFLY - I can't believe the number of people willing to bet their life on someone else doing the right thing.

pinkfairy 0 #7 June 12, 2007 Get it! Really cool book, full of crazy stories to keep you interested, and really good tips that can improve your canopy flying and landing. What's wrong with my landings? I worked out some theories on my own, and talked to an instructor, but the book had some additional theories that explained things really well. Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet. I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kingbunky 3 #9 June 12, 2007 i've been told that the one certainty in skydiving is that you will land. whether you'll be in shape to jump again is the big variable.
