Zipp0 1 #1 April 28, 2006 Well, the first jump is in the log. (IAD) I started with a good arch, and then swam a little, which my instructor told me is not uncommon. The canopy flight was great, and I landed on target, right in the pea pit. I flared maybe a second late, and slid in a bit on my feet and then gently down to my butt. There is really no way to describe the feeling. I can only imagine what it feels like to be in freefall and truly 'own it'. Baby steps......

The 100th jump is a million times better than your 1st jump then your 1000th jump is a million times better than number 100th then you leave life behind, get an AFF rating and it becomes a million times better again! Then, eventually you get tired of Ramen noodles but just cannot seem to tear yourself away.Mykel AFF-I10 Skydiving Priorities: 1) Open Canopy. 2) Land Safely. 3) Don’t hurt anyone. 4) Repeat… Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
