Practicing barrel rolls in the wind tunnel
More practice transitions...yay!
Barrel rolls from belly flying to back flying, then back flying to belly flying, and also going all the way around from belly-flying to belly-flying....I guess I forgot the back-flying to back flying.....

Practice back-flying to sit-flying transitions in the wind tunnel

Practicing this transition is helping it become a little smoother, a little better. It is all about going from one position to the other in controlled fashion. #windtunnel #ifly #indoorskydiving #practice

We generally call this drill "boxes" and it means fly around each other in different ways. It's all practice. #ifly #windtunnel #indoorskydiving #beginnerskydive #practice

Trying to find balance on one foot in the wind tunnel is not easy, and then control the twist to turn instead of flop around is even harder. #ifly #windtunnel #indoorskydiving #indoorskydive #learningtofly

Small wardrobe malfunction notwithstanding, even if it's like riding a bike, some skills require constant practice.

This week was work towards sit flying in the wind tunnel. This means more back flying stability drills and more sit stability drills and then getting lift off the net. Lift off the net was cool. #indoorskydiving #ifly #indoorskydive #beginnerskydive #windtunnel #progress

Hello! Interesting to see your progress. Are these videos from your old sessions or it is the current state?
How much does it cost to get a personal trainer at Ifly? How often do you have to practice?
I purchased their red membership which includes training and time in the wind. I go at least once a week.
You almost got your back to sit transitions. Hell yeah!! 🤘
Thanks. This one's been a tough one for me
What in the world was that?....like a x6 breaker??? Tell "Charlie" to go home...He's making us all look bad. Really rude of him to be so smooth like that...... sheesh. :)
😂😂😂😂
If you want to be like Charlie, he's available for coaching and I promise you won't be disappointed
Eyyy you are crushing it. Knee flying is a weird one, it will just click one day so don't worry about it. It is good you are learning it a lot of people do not even bother!!
You're not kidding! It took a while for me to be able to bend my knees and then one day I just did it! It was an amazing feeling
You're not the first one!
brilliant 😊
Nice
Yes, significant improvements. Are you flying every day?
I fly once a week.
@@Jenniferlearnstofly I do 15 minutes every week. I have done 7 hours but expect another 7 before my flight is fluid. I often feel that there is no progress but then I watch some older footage and realise that there is, albeit slower than I had hoped for.
@@BjorckBengt so far I've done 3:30 hours that includes some fun sessions with my hubby
Amazing!!! Looks like so much fun!
We need to get you in there
Nice boosting, get your over feet transitions going now! 🤟
Thanks! This week I worked on my over the feet transitions.... Those videos are coming soon
@@Jenniferlearnstofly I acctually saw your other vids after commenting🤣, awesome work!
@@danielhickey9000 I was at the tunnel today and did more transitions
Your rolls are starting to look very good. Almost no forward-backward movement.
Thank you... Once I got the hang of them, they are so much fun.
Pretty awesome 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
So cool, I want to do as well.
Go for it! You won't regret it. I took my family last weekend and they had an amazing time.
I am at about the same stage. It is a humbling experience to struggle but such a joy when things suddenly start to unfold as intended. Watching the coaches move around with such ease is a pleasure and with perseverance we will get there one day.
When things start to click in your head and your body just does it, is the best feeling ever!
Lookin awesome!!!
Thank you
Thank you for posting. It is really helpful to see the difference between a student and a coach. Knees forward is a challenge.
Is it ever... When I'm in the wind, I think I'm doing exactly what he's doing and wondering why I can't get my feet down or keep my knees forward. Looking at the video after tells me a different story
Was it fun?
It has been a great experience so far. I can't wait to see where I am in another month
I had already been signed off on Level 1 and practicing different movements with my husband
look at you sit flying! 😄🤘
Come back to the tunnel
Was this IBA level 1 training?
Is this an intermediate to sit flying?
My coach wants me to learn how balance for over the feet transitions before sit flying
My guess is that it's important you know how to be stable on your back and how to transition into a normal face down approach if you get stuck there. Looks fun!
You're making good progress. On this week i started to learn back flying and knee flying, so damn hard, but i wont give up. So keep it going! Cheers
Thanks! Where are you flying? And when are you going to start showing your videos? It's great to see how far I've come from my first lesson in November.
@@Jenniferlearnstofly I'm flying at TwinFly in Russia, thinking about posting some videos, but I'm kind of embarrassed :D upd: check it out
@@justcat2077 just watched it. That's great! Keep it up
Love to see it. People have an unprecedented level of technology to help us experience things without in innate sense of danger. But just wait till you take that first jump out of plane at 14K feet. That is something!! Keep going Jen!
Thanks! It's not my plan to jump out of a plane at 14k feet, I leave that to my husband. My journey has made me realize all the hard work the tunnel instructors and skydivers put in to make it seem effortless
@@Jenniferlearnstofly Fair! No one should be make that leap if they don't want to. I love people having a journey of fun with what is available to us. I'm fairly shight at the whole thing, but I'm having a blast experiencing it. It's just been fun seeing others having a shared experience! Love to see it!
Looks amazing! I've only been flying for 8 minutes so far and I'll start real training next week. How much time did you spend in total to reach this level?
Since last week, I have had a total of 2:30 hours.
Love your videos. Starting tunnel flying as an older flyer - finding backflying very challenging😊
Thank you!!
What was the focus here? Back to a stand transition?
Honestly, it was trying to figure out how to go back and forth. Plus a little standing to back without touching the net
I’m enjoying watching your progress! You’re getting the hang of it faster than me 😊
Thanks.. Back flying has definitely been humbling to say the least
Love seeing your journey!
Thank you!!
