  1. Congratulations on making it. I can't offer any advice because I've only done three!! but want to keep jumping. Did stage 3 yesterday and apparently did really well, from my JM's accounts anyway. Discovered that I wasn't as stable on my own as I may have previously thought, but got the go ahead to keep going. Maybe you can answer my question posted on this site. Is the feeling, control etc of a dive exit any different to going backside out? Or is it in my head? I was in the skyvan with a stage 9 jumper (in Australia) who has to complete 3 jumps from 5, 4 and 3000 feet, then it's on to B rels. It just spun me out a bit to see him go head first at such low altitude!! and think that is going to be me soon?? Any advice on this, or am I making a mountain out of a mole hill? Blue Skies.
  2. Hey, just started this amazing sport, only done three jumps of AFF course in Picton AUSTRALIA. Absolutely love it, a bit tentative at thought of dive exit!! Any thoughts, opinions, advice on this subject. Also having problems with ears on opening and under canopy, which has stopped me doing my fourth today. Blue Skies.
