Hahaha!! That's good.


Unfortunately the winter isn't to kind to us in Houston either. Not so much due to the temperate (although its pretty damn cold at altitude) but mainly due to the winds. STudents aren't allowed to jump in winds over 14mph and after sunday's jump I can see why. When I steered into the wind I was being blown backwards, not very cool.

What I would recommend as its something Im looking into before the coaching jumps is getting time in a windtunnel. Each minute of tunnel time is equivalent to a skydive, and more than likely after buying 30 minutes of tunnel time you wont have to repeat any levels. Good luck.

For those interested. Videos from this past sunday.

Level 10 freefall: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?f...eoid=1797094768
music: PvD - Different Journey to Vega

canopy descent: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?f...eoID=1801745505
music: Steve Helstrip - Escape


Freefall was shot from two perspectives, objective was to maintain fallrate and heading with the coach. Its a bit tricky, but I feel more practice may bring improvement.
Enjoy
