  1. Asking people on the internet questions!!!! well on the other forums I talk on I usually flame the newbies, so I'm expected lots of sarcastic remarks, but I'm hoping for SOME actual answers as well
  2. Ok, so this is my first thread on here and I figured I'd ask everyone what are some bad habits to avoid when jumping? I know everyone has developed some over the years and would like to know what to look out for so that I don't develop any early on. And I'm talking from the time you pack to when you bring your gear back in to pack after landing.

    Viso

    Well halfway through AFF I realized that I hate the standard mechanical altimeters and decided to get the Viso. I don't have a ton of experience with altimeters, but I think it's a very good product. Very easy to read and accurate as far as altitude goes. The logging is pretty basic, but provides all the info one would usually want. Only downsides are the supplied mounting strap is horrible and I had to butcher it just to get it mounted properly and the strap is already coming apart after 15 jumps. Also the speedometer isn't very accurate, but that was to be expected for a hand-mounted altimeter, I don't pay attention to that anyway, but some people might.
  4. Absolutely hilarious link regarding the beer, hahaha!! Thanks for all the welcomes!
  5. Well I figured I have to start posting at some point, so might as well make my first post an introductory one (even though I'm not sure if anybody reads these!) Was in the Marines for 4 years, got out a couple months ago after going to Iraq. Currently live in Augusta, GA and am jumping at Skydive Atlanta (awesome place!) Going to eventually move back down to the Tampa area in a year or so. Done 11 jumps now and returning this weekend to hopefully do a few more and working my way towards an A license. So just wanted to say hi and I look forward to finding a wealth of knowledge and lessons and meeting a bunch of new people! The whole skydiving culture is interesting as apparently I already owe like 3 cases of beer at my DZ, not sure what's up with that...
