Everybody has some fear in the back of there mind each and every jump. If someone says other wise they should not be jumping. I had the same fear as you only I didn't want to quit. I had the fear that something was going to happen and I would have to use my reserve. I had such an addiction to jumping I would force myself out the door just to get my fix. I would pray the entire flight to altitude that everything would go allright. In addition I was starting to get a little cocky and reckless just waiting for something to happen. On my 54 jump it finally did. It was my first jump with new equipment and thats all that mattered to me was to jump my new gear. In the back of my head I knew this was the jump it was going to happen and I was scared to death. Still all that mattered to me was the jump. I made the jump from 5,000 as my check dive for the A license. I through out at 2,500 and nothing happened. Instead of checking over my shoulders for a D- bag in a burble I just froze like a dear in headlights. At a little under 2,000 I heard a voice come screaming to me to cutaway and so I did. Come to find out I had a collapsed pilot chute in tow from it being hooked up wrong. I still say a prayer on every jump, but it is to ask GOD that everybody on the plane have a safe jump. Your fear is natural and one you need to deal with. I have faced my demons in the sport and won. I now am a more safer skydiver than I have ever been. I still have the problem with the jump addiction to the point that I failed this quarter all because I was at the DZ and not working on school work. Skylark you have a strong natural instinct to be a skydiver do some reflecting and look at your life as well as what you want to do with it. I hope that you win you battle and become a great skydiver. Blue Skies and my next jump is for you. CSA #699 Muff #3804

I don't know> someone called him Sanchez and he didn't care for it. I called him Sanchez to find out why and he just replied " Don't call me Sanchez." What is HH real name anyway? CSA #699 Muff #3804

If you have a cypres remember they cannot go through the security X-ray. There is something about it that can effect the computer chip in the cypres control unit. There is an x-ray card provided for this reason to show security. Most importantly BE NICE TO THE WUFFOS don't get all bent out of shape if they get all stupid on you. CSA #699 Muff #3804

I don't know about the DZ she was at but, the one I jump at on the signed waiver it says if you get hurt or die you or your family cannot sue. CSA #699 Muff #3804 -
I would like my first kiss pass when I go to Skydive Houston and Spaceland 25 April- 5 May. It's a belated x-mas gift but worth it or a new complete rig. CSA #699 Muff #3804

Thats all I need to read about is one more bad landing under a full functional canopy in next months Parachutest. I hope you have learned your lessen and will be a bit more safe on the next landing. It's good to hear that you are still in one piece and able to jump in a week. Just remember there is always a newbie watching your landing set a WHAT- TO- DO example not a WHAT - NOT- TO- DO one.
