Flyer2Diver 0 #1 April 17, 2004 I had such a teriffic day of jumping today I just had to post about it. Last Saturday I sat around all day waiting for the wind to calm down which it never did. Today, winds were forecast to be light. Turned out to be a perfect day weather-wise. Did three jumps - IAF 4,5 & 6. Wearing my own rig for the first time was AWESOME! I was able to keep stable and did well with the maneuvers, and I'm finally beginning to relax. Canopy flight was a blast too. On my second jump, I was able to pull off a standup landing right in the middle of the peas. My biggest mistake was backsliding (I wasn't keeping my legs far enough out) but at least I know what I need to do to fix that. Thanks to Pete, my IAF instructor at The Ranch for helping me learn this stuff so fast & keeping it fun. I love this!! _______________________________ 30005KT 10SM SKC 23/05 A3006 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
