SSkydiver 0 #1 September 29, 2003 Hear we are on the last weekend before the big October change. Some jumpers that were close in jump numbers to get there B or C license i hear them say "What for". On Friday morning i had 94 jumps. Ok, enough for a B but i also wanted that C license. Friday ends up a rain day but we managed 2 loads and i got one of them. Saturday had to work, was able to get off a little early and got one more in. Sunday.......clear as a bell, beautiful day, of course i got the other 4 jumps in. Some people asked me "Why" and "What for". I've always heard instructors say if you can get a rating or license then you should go for it and get it. Does me getting a C license make me a better skydiver than at 94 jumps? Not even close. But what it did do is give me a feeling of great accomplishment and made the jumps just that much sweeter. It was worth the 2 hour round trip drive each of those 3 days to get the C license. To everyone out there (and i'm sure its a shit load) that played hard this weekend to get there B, C or D license. Congratulations! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
