Ahhhh, just had my fix :)

Just returned from another day in Teuge, skydiving. As it turned out I was right about the weather. It was a bit cold, especially in the first jump, but overall it was a very pleasant temperature and no wind. And you know what that means, right? Fast landings!!! :D

The first jump was particularly great, because I got to be the last one to leave the airplane for the first time in my live. And it’s great to see our ride diving down, almost at the same speed as we do, right next to me. I will never forget that view for the rest of my life.

I planned to start experimenting with free flying, particularly sit flying and actually managed to gain some degree of control which made me happy. I was later told that the jump suit I was wearing was not very good for sit flying, since it has the grip handles on the legs, which cause a lot of instability so now I am considering getting a pair of free flying trousers. Man, this sport is gonna get me bankrupt really soon :)

Also bought some goggles, another pair of clear ones, but with a stylish out look :D

Peace out ;)
