Grando said:I jumped once last summer (girlfriend got it for a birthday present!). I was scared shitless, and barely got my 6'2 frame out of the Cessna.
When the guide pulled the ripcord my crotch got pulled so bad I walked like a western gunslinger for a week.
Although it was amazing, I'm not in a hurry to do it again.
Sgt Schultz said:Any folks here sky dive? I"m looking for my first jump ever this summer, free fall of course. *Watch me break the sound barrier*
One of my goals in the CF is to get my jump course. ;D
Any stories folks want to tell?
SupersonicMax said:I haven't done a single instructor assisted deployment and went solo. Theh first one was a tandem jump, followed by 2 instructors and 1 students jump (1 instructor holding on to me and the other in my face "telling" me what to do.

popnfresh said:Hey guys me and a buddy from my old regiment signed up to go skydiving on saturday. He said he signed us up for the solo jump...so I'm assuming the first one if you're not with an instructor is a static line jump right and not free fall? I'm just going to show up, do what I'm told and then jump but was looking for an idea what to expect. Any tips for a soft landing?
