High Performace Canopies LOW JUMP NUMBERS!!!!!

Very well said... -
No.. Squares.. I agree PLF is absolutely necessary.. I just thought saying flare and plf on every landing during aff was giving the wrong "mo jo" where canopy flight is concerned.

I can compare whatever I like to compare.. It is called an analogy. The analogy was a sound one. You had a sound, smart, subtle progression. I think that is fantastic!! You have set a great example for others no doubt. My progression has been a bit more aggrerssive "a risk I choose to take" The thing I enjoy most about skydiving "other than the people" is flying parachutes. I am not "team extreme" by any means and don't pretend to be. But I learn, try to improve on every flight and get advice from the pro's anytime I can. I either to a 180-360 hook "normally 180-270", diving from 450-500 feet in double fronts, straight down.. "like hooksnswoop" I did a few down wind landings at the convention during the speed competition. I also practice them at my dz frequently so that isn't an issue. I stood them all up if it means anything. Rhino -
fibber fibber fibber!!!!! Skymama's nose is growing.. LOL
-
My first 3 jumps were tandems with perfect landings.. I guess that was a good start. We flared and flared and flared and flared coming down.. I think a hop-n-pop from altitude doing flares and flat turns all the way down would be a great addition to AFF..

I'm with Clay on this one Mama.. I think you are fibbing!!!!

I'm curious.. "seriously" On the Stiletto, does it make much of a difference having the chest strap loosened? My crossfire2 "at 1.9ish" is downright unstable as hell if I don't loosen up that chest strap. If I don't I feel every bump in the air. I loosen it and BAM.. That sucker hugs the road.. Is a Stiletto the same way? -
Don't forget unlike most people you only need 2 fingers to whack off!! You have it made!!! LOL

Just when you think you have seen it all..

No.. I wasn't misunderstanding... I talked to the JM.. If a standup occurs it is deemed an "accident"

Abra Cadabra , hocis pocis lol

That was part of my aff as well but not ACTUALLY plf'ing on an aff jump. Like I said.. I was just wondering. It was news to me..

Even if she is reminding herself it is our job as REAL MEN, to respect her wishes and to protect her from herself. Don't you think You do that for a lady and real respect is earned. My opinion..
-
Simple.. That is her way of saying she isn't available. This would usually be triggered by something the "commentee" did to provoke the "commentor". She may be interested then a red flag goes up and she fires the reserve "boyfriend comment" Just a guess.

I feel for you.. All you can do is hang for as long as you can. Their comes a time when the giving and patience runs out for the benefit of self preservation. If you love someone then things tend to be even harder..

Understandable, So is teaching to PLF during every jump in AFF a standard practice now?
-
A friend of mine is going through AFF. They are teaching her to PLF on landing NOT to land on her feet. I believe they are saying to flare and plf. To me this sounds ASS backwards? I think landing on your feet is very important. That whole learning to flair the canopy properly thing. What does everyone think? Is this the norm now?
-
That gets annoying doesn't it.. lol
