hey all Haha, yes, obviously I've been asking my instructors and they actually recommended that if I didn't feel comfortable with it still, talk to other people about it and get as many opinions as possible. I've been told that my canopy piloting looks fine to them, and since I've got the general jist and am not putting myself or anyone in danger to just get other opinions so I can become more confident in my ability. They suggested me figuring out what has helped with other people since the same "tricks" don't work for everyone. And don't worry, I've also been warned not to take all the advice given without double checking it with an instructor too Don't worry...I'm not learning how to fly a canopy from this forum lol.

Hey all I'm a student (still doing AFF) but I feel pretty uncertain under canopy. I'm scared to jump by myself not because of any issues with freefall but b/c i won't have radio assistance landing!! I'm getting the hang of flaring, but landing anywhere near where I'm supposed to (though still on the dz) is really tricky for me. Does anyone have any tips for beginners on judging wind speed (b/c apparently the wind sock is not enough for me ) and landing on target? I know to follow the first person down, but I still don't end up in the right place... silence is one of the most effective forms of communication...
