well, the main thing is to pay attention in the ground school and feel comfortable with the emergency procedures because you never know when you may need them. I had a pretty nasty line twist on my cat B jump but was able to kick out of them. Also ARCH....lol don't look down when you jump as long as you have a good arch you will remain pretty stable.
Awesome! You looked confident. I've done three tandems in the last 4 months, but the nerves still get me. My first aff jump is Oct 27th, I am trying to handle the fear to keep it from turning to doubt! Nervous about jumping without the security of someone being strapped to me, and of course nervous thinking about the worst case scenarios with the parachute. I know I am safe with my jm's, but trying to find some peace of mind! How did you mentally prepare for aff?
Hey, I had Steve and Judy as well. How did you upload the video to youtube. I cannot figure out how to get the video from the website to youtube or from the disc they give you. If you could help me out, that would be great.
Awesome job, Man! I did my first tandem-jump in August. I'm hooked! It was a great way to bring in my 50th birthday.
Fantastic Mike, great video thank you for uploading.
Textbook perfect AFF level 1 freefall. Congrats Brother, welcome to the sky.
You did a good job man.

I use a program to rip the video to my computer and then change the format so I can upload it here. Very easy to do.
