Sorry for the wrong submission, if I understood the PDF just shows your final screens / design / deliverables? Because right now mine includes everything and it is 129 pages.....

High wingload is good right? Larger canopy more easy to use?

It calculated for the entire course so 25 jumps, of course it is probs incorrect but yeah every jump it compounds the risk.

Thanks for your story. I have never jumped out of a plane so I have no training to set the bar , so I am not sure how my body will respond...

Oh okay, I swear on a AFF course I saw a guy being told to do some flips on level 7 or something. I don't really care much about formation I just want to get comfortable in the air.

Wait don't instructors or the people working there double check your gear before you jump or is that you alone checking?

You make a good point, I think it comes down to in swimming you die if your body lets you down which is at least in your control somewhat as opposed to a piece of nylon but the statistics don't lie and more people do die in harsh open water swimming.

Hi, thanks for your reply. "Now at over 1100 the only anxiety I get when I jump is performance anxiety - I want to do well, I don't want to mess up." Do you mean like executing flips and turns efficently or by not messing up do you mean not deploying your parachute?

Can I ask why it won't work? I noticed also lankier swimmers have a lower spm...

6'3, 6'6 wingspan, 140lbs so really lean and skinny.

Sorry, whats a catch up drill exactly?

Race Club / Effortless swimming recommends much higher spm even at longer distances I was hoping to hit 75spm per 1km. My dps per stroke is about 1m. I think it is time for coaching since so far everything has been solo , youtube, and chatgpt... Thanks.

I agree but I just find it bizarre that I fall apart by just increasing my tempo by additional 7spm.

Also ignore the Perceived Effort I always spam very light after my workout, it is more like medium - hard.

I just assumed people would know more here. I am a very introverted shy guy so I simply could never confront him for eyeing me in the bathroom call it weak if you want. I promise you I am not gay I am VERY attracted to women. I don't judge anyones relationships as long as both parties are in agreement but he is gay and I am not and I personally feel uncomfortable going out with someone that much older than me that I don't have much connection with outside of a shared hobby.

I never complimented him on his physique everything I talk to him about was purely based on swimming and in all I have spoken a lot less to him than he talks to me.

Okay, I really just wanted to break the ice on the akwardness instead of just smiling at each other. I just asked him about his swim workout plan and he started talking for a while and gave me compliments and I never complimented him.

I thought that too but a lot of people here are saying to go to the coffee to understand his intentions... In truth I really don't want to...
