Skydiving!!!!

[Scarecrow]

Who does it? Doing my first AFF class tomorrow and I'm so psyched!!! I actually embarrass myself over how excited I get when someone gets me talking about it. Anywho... just curious... anyone else do it or gone before? Tandem? Solo? I went a couple months ago and have been having withdrawals ever since. Sooo excited I actually get to pull my own parachute this time and land it ^_^

Wow, that's awesome!

I want to skydive after college with several friends, or at least during the summer soon. Best of luck to ya' and have a ton of fun!

Why would I jump out of a perfectly good airplane?

Really though, I'd love to try it, but they'd probably have to push me.

Yeah, same for me, I think. ^^;

1 AFF Jump down... 6 more to do! I did pretty good except when it came to getting the parachute in the right spot for landing. I was doing way to many extreme turns under 1000 feet though. After 1000 you're supposed to already be at your flight path mark and going in for the landing path... I started to early so I was too high at the wrong time but I was still under 1000 feet you're not supposed to do any crazy turns and I was swinging around like a pendulum trying to correct myself... they had to yell at me a couple times to stop but I'd hear turn so I thought they wanted me to go the other way but they said no turn so yeah... but I landed it good still aside from that...
