    If you start with skydiving you do the AFF (accelerated free fall) course

    First day ground course, there was a lot of information to process. We had to remember the hole first jump and all emergency procedures because @ your first jump you may need it.

    The first jump you have to check if both jumpmasters (jm) are ready, then you signal and jump out of the plane together with 2 instructors. You always check your alti (altimeter or hightmeter) every few seconds. We had to do an practice throw, so we pretend if we wanted to trow our Parachute. After that another one. Than looking at your alti and wait until 5500ft (1,6km) than throw your parlet chute that opens your Parachute.

    I passed the exam (theoretical and practical) and had to do the TAF (tandem assist fall) first. Because I didn't hear what the teacher was saying and did the wrong thing.

    Exited about tomorrow!

    I don't have any pictures so sorry guy's!
