What goes through your mind when you get injured?
Genn replied to jigneshsoni's topic in Safety and Training
"Oh Shit!" (not that bad but has potential) "Oh Fuck!" (usually pretty bad) Almost always followed by, "I fucked up!" -

What makes someone pick the place to make thier first jump?
Genn replied to Fast's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Other: After my 18th birthday, my friend Jerry Ginder asked me if I wanted to make a skydive. I said yes, always wanted to! We went to the DZ he jumped at and I signed up for training. -
Other: I like blocks. Grab and go.

Max is a class 'A' guy. Everybody needs a break once in awhile. Give the man some air. He will make good.

In Reply To -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Questions: 1. what kind of aircraft? C182WIDEBODY 2. will any packers be available? No but you should be able to pack on your own by now but We will take care of you. If not I will do it. Don't worry just buy someone a couple of beers. Your going to be packing in a bar anyway. 3. I have an A license, can I jump there? You dont need a license or USPA. 4. How much are jump tix? $13 to get in the plane and a$1 for each 1000 5. What kind of altitude will jumpers be getting? 10K? 12K? 13.5K? 2k-10k Sounds like a fun getaway and I just might make it if the weather cooperates! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Track high, Pull LOW!!! Sportsmen style! Scooter wants to know if there are any trees in the middle of the lake!!! He will practice his one handed packing- since we're packing in the bar.

Richards, IMO, you are giving an unfair generalization to the *type* of female 'students with breasts'. Some students need to be bottle fed and there will always be somebody there willing to hold that bottle. So sure, this scenario does exist in some situations. However, not all females students respond to this type of instruction/coaching. There are many of us women out there who are of the independent type that responds better to minimal instruction. I was/am one of these students. In my first log book, learning to sit fly, I have 300+ solos logged. I was given a task. Once I felt I completed that task, a friend would come out and video and move on to the next pointers. Then solo, solo, and more solos.The goal was for me to be stable, have controlled flips, transitions, fallrate, etc. down *before*getting on that 10-way you speak of, as base. This is sounding too gender based. In my experience, I've seen more people, (men or women) get better quality coaching, by simply showing a love for the sport, and a willingness to learn- not to mention dedication. Long story short- I think an individuals (male or female) motives should be/ and is looked at and treated as such. Not all female students' coaching progression has been the way you explained. I hope you were speaking in jest.

Hi ZigZag, Sounds like something to consider. However, I don't have chest rings on any of my rigs - Only Hip rings.
-
I have long legs and a short torso. On my (custom)rigs, there is only room for my chest strap and handles- which leaves my chest strap placement across my breasts. I wear w/e I'm wearing at the time. No special treatment w/ "smooshing" and the like. Haven't had a problem and I actually prefer it over the 'under-the-breast' placement. Hard openings come to mind. I don't consider it a problem. YMMV
