ridetofly 0 #1 May 29, 2003 Just finished off my RW endorsement yesterday evening for my A license. Having someone right there in your face and seeing how you move relative to them is amazing! Kind of put's a different light on Solo jumps doesn't it?Aaron Live as you will want to have lived... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casch 0 #2 May 29, 2003 It was so cool to have someone next to me in freefall, when I did my graduation jump. hehe the next jump off of student status was a 7 way And that so far has been the coolest jump ever Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dterrick 0 #3 May 29, 2003 Yes, it does. Congratulations. It only gets better as you get into bigger formations (not like I have a whole lot of experience) and soon you'll think of the freedom of a solo / freestyle dive as a treat as well. As for me, I recently did my first 'proximity ride under canopy ... and I bet I view CReW with the same enthusiasm I know you're feeling now about RW. It's gonna suck when I run out of new things to do in the sky ... may that be many many years from now Dave Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friend (Lennon/McCartney) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanuckInUSA 0 #5 May 29, 2003 I want to visit Coolidge in AZ and jump with a watermelon. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snowbird 0 #8 May 29, 2003 Oh yeah! Enjoy that 'A', there's so much to do now that you can jump with most everyone else. And if you think one person is cool, wait until it's 3 or 4 or more. Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea. -Robert A. Heinlein Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BenGriffiths 0 #9 May 29, 2003 Couldn't agree more - doing solos' is fun but jumping with some one else is even better. Did my first 2 way and multi-point 2 way this last weekend and I loved it.---------- Ben G Still Sinking :-( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BMFin 0 #12 May 30, 2003 Quote i'm still try to figure out a way to jump my unicycle :) One guy from our DZ called Jussi Laine has jumped with his bicycle. Hi landed it too ! He jumps with all kinds off different gadgets all the time and he has never dropped a single item exept one ukulele in hawaii. He has never had a reserve ride either. BTW. Check out his photos here in DZ.com they are awesome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
