    Hey guys! Perris student here :) I did two jumps yesterday (level 2 and level 3) and all passed! Good news here. But the bad news is, on my second jump my landing was terrible. I waited for the radio to tell me "flare flare flare" but ended up flaring too late. I slid on the dirt, and got minor foot injuries....Not a big deal tho and it will be healed within a few weeks, and I will be back in the sky as soon as I feel good about my feet. Right now I need to work on my landings... obviously. But I can't tell how high is 8-12 feet when in the air.. and it seems like I cannot trust the radio sometimes..I didn't listen to radio and I stood up on my level 1. Any tips and advice?? I greatly appreciate it. thanks in advance. Blue skies and safe landings!! David

    Thanks buddy! ya many people were surprised but some of my DZ instructors were focusing on what I did not very good LMAO! such as I would turn different in the real air/not a standard arch, need to bent my legs a little more. haha I accept all of that! I keep going man this journey is beautiful.

    So you think tunnel and the real air are the same?
  14. David Wang
    Yes, thanks. I will just do what they teach in the Sky.

    Hope you guys can see the video. I uploaded in non-WiFi environment.... that video shows I turned “like an airplane” lol. Dig one arm and let the air do the rest of the work. I won’t overthink and will just do what my instructor teaches me in the air. Some of my instructors say the tunnel and the air are the same but some of then are not. Some of them teach me to turn like an airplane but some of them are not hahaha. Yes, the tunnel speed was slower than actual freefall speed I guess. Not sure tho.

    hey guys, I just finished 10min tunnel session at iFLY Oceanside and learned how to turn. Basically I just turned like an airplane in the tunnel. I showed my videos to my Perris instructors and then they said it's a bit different in the real air and I don't turn like that. So how to turn? I'm confused. When I asked them why they said it's hard to explain.

    Thanks buddy.

    come to skydive Perris. One of the best dzs in the world! There is a bombshelter and bunkhouse! $15 per night per person it's pretty cheap.
