skypuppy 1 #1 September 11, 2003 After 2000 jumps and 20 years I'm just getting interested in classic accuracy... Is there enuf interest in the classical disciplines of precision accuracy and freefall style to warrant a forum of our own (everyone else seems to have one!) We could discuss where and how to train; local, national and international competitions; and tips on improving your performance; equipment, etc. Anyone interested?If some old guy can do it then obviously it can't be very extreme. Otherwise he'd already be dead. Bruce McConkey 'I thought we were gonna die, and I couldn't think of anyone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Push 0 #3 September 11, 2003 This discipline seems to draw a lot of competitors. I know probably as much people that are interested in style and/or accuracy as I know freeflyers. Also note that the group is not mutually exclusive, ie, there are freeflyers that occasionally do a styleset or fly an accuracy approach and vice versa. Finally, accuracy can teach control of a large canopy in all modes of its flight, so it would be a good read for anyone. Count me in. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy.

Blahr 0 #6 September 11, 2003 Your options suggest that if you are not interested in style and accuracy, you MUST be "one of those new freaky flyers" I'm not one of those new freaky flyers but neiother am I interested an a style and accuracy forum Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
