Here is another one

I won't mind having to deal with a few square heads from time to time.. (Just kidding!!) I just thought the subject line would be more "catchy" this way! (Or maybe I was just looking for attention??) Good to see that the skydiving community does not have a problem with this french-canadian thing! aaaaahhhhhh, can't wait to start jumping again.... Steve

I am posted to Kingston. What is the girl's name? Is she still in Trenton?

Once I get my certification, I will be happy to try different places to jump! By the way, it is really spelled Gananoque (Gan) See the web site: http://www.skydivegan.com Or any road map.. Hopefully I will have my rig ready for the May long weekend at Gan. Did you know that Paramax Skydiving has moved to Alexandria? It used to be in Gatineau, where I took my course, which is also where I live until I move to Kingston in August. Steve

Hi John, thanks for the reply. I am an engineer in the military, so I don't jump as part of my work. However, I have long dreamed of being a Skyhawk (Canadian Forces Demo Team), so I might get paid to have this much fun in a couple years from now... who knows!! Reading all different posts and other stuff on the net, it seems like RW is the way to start. I am moving this summer and hopefully my new local DZ will have RW people I can jump with (Gananoque, Ont). How long did it take you to become at ease with the basics like keeping a steady fall rate, turns, track, ..etc ? I would like to get my A license this summer and possibly start working on my B. Steve

Thanks for all the welcoming

Hi All, I started jumping late last summer, I just bought my first rig and I am waiting for this cold country to warm up and start jumping again. I did not realize how expensive all this stuff was.. oh well Here is a newbie question: There are quite a few disciplines out there, skysurfing and birdman suit flying interest me, but I realize I need more experience before attempting those.. If you would like, please share your skydiving career progression.. Is everyone starting with RW? Freeflying? Thanks everyone! Steve
