They did NOT go over that part and I didn't talk about it. JM said "great skydiver" I have a great arch forward movement and turns.. Jerko JM did tell me about my dive flow and I failed because I locked on to my leg strap and I wouldn't let jerk JM take my hand off. I appreciated all of Jerk's comments and critique. NO they did NOT go over what to do on the plane as far as what benches to move to.. I just did the same thing I did on Level 2. I do want to re-iterate I appreciate all of the critique I can get at this stage of training. And so it wasn't that but his heavy handedness that was not needed.. with the roughness right before the exit made me really mad. I know what he said on the ground and I know what they said on the plane and JM#1 had jumped with me before and didn't see or didn't say anything. I didn't say anything to anyone but the DZO.. I repeat the JM I am talking about is a different style of teaching and most people at the DZ think I am a baby because I can't handle his critique. They don't know about the whole thing before the exit. JM#1 said the jump was great and so did the DZO. I have no problem failing a level.. but I am talking about being jerked around in a airplane before an exit. And I didn't whine about that. I wanted to cry I was so mad cause I was about to punch the dude. Just super bad vibes all around there now. Sucks. Confronting him is not gonna do any good I can tell as he is considered one of the best. That's why I didn't say anything about the incident to anyone and I only told the DZO

The DZO said he would talk to him. This is not a JM anyone is going to change. It's really bad vibes for me now there as that is exactly what everyone is thinking.. she's a baby cause she failed. And no... he said what he wanted to.. no one told me differently about changing seats. I told both JM's here is my exit sequence so they were on the same page.. I mean the exit at the door. Other than that, he went through the dive flow yes.. no problem. Very critical and a jerk imo.. but that is how he thinks everyone learns.

There is a DZ around that is closer to me and only 2 instructors and they don't act like that. Whiny and thin skinned. Let me shove you around before an exit and see what you do??? Let's see if you're cool with that.

Hi, I am female and not a wimp and I love skydiving. I am going through AFF training right now and there are about 8 different JM's altogether. Getting different ones may be good but then they don't really know my strengths and weaknesses.. and some have different exit protocols..and some even expect a little different dive flow. ok that's ok I can adapt. But in the airplane, on L2 JM#1 moved from one bench to the closer bench to the door (we were the last ones out)... I did the same and JM#2 did the same.. exit together.. great jump. On L3, one of the JM's didn't know me and he's the type that believes making you feel stupid is the trick and so he criticized me on the ground before the jump a lot.. a little on the plane and then tons on the ground again... ok fine.. I can take it.. but here is what happened. In the airplane he was behind me as JM#2. Jm#1 moved to the closer bench (we were the last ones) and I started moving to the other bench just like on L#2.. JM#2 started pushing and shoving me back to the first bench.. he didn't just motion or move me (or tell me).. he shoved and pushed me over and over even though I got the message already he was still pushing my legs as if idk what his trip was.. I can't figure that out. Needless to say this was right before my exit. And I was so mad.. I wanted to punch the dude besides being very critical and an jerk attitude (imo).. he was shoving me around before our exit. I did ok on the level but spaced out a lot..and failed the level. I am not blaming him for failing. I just don't learn well like that.. I am hard enough on myself. Are we supposed to get rough with students right before and exit?? I told the DZ owner about it, but I am so mad I don't want to ever go back to that DZ which means I have to start over again at another DZ. I need to repeat I did the same thing on L2 with a different JM behind me as far as moving to the same bench closer to the door and no one said a thing... great dive, etc. I was not told "stay on your bench" I was just following JM#1 on both dives. I wasn't trying to make stuff up to do.. just doing what I thought I was supposed to.
