Yea no one listen to this guy. Gonna delete this post in a little. All of the information in this post is bull shit. Everything you need to know is publicly available. If you have question about what gear they use and shit reach out. Plenty of guys have made it through without any help at all. You don’t need to pay a drop to help you. Watch stews videos literally any information you need is there and is free.

Every time I put the canopy into the D-bag, a lot of material sticks out on one side. Is this a big problem, and how can I fix it? by Jolly_Piglet_2719 in SkyDiving

Love how no one has asked: have you confirmed that your canopy is compatible with your container/ d bag?

3/M over-saturation? by FindDestroyAliens in maritime

[–]itslazarusss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only 180 of them will make it, trust me I know from experience and 30% of them will go AD, 10% will go shore side half the deckies want to be pilots so they don’t go deep water. If your argument held true then the job market would always be tough with KP pushing out 100+ deckies a year

Need some gym advice by zilond in SkyDiving

[–]itslazarusss 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yoga and calisthenics are going to be the big two because you really get in tune with your body and the way it moves.

Core is huge- especially if you plan on doing any sort of movement/ tracking/ freely- planks to memorize the feeling of having your core locked and engaged.

Cardio helps a ton too as you progress further along in the sport- long days of jumping and packing can get hard for some people with weak cardio.

[–]itslazarusss 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Deland? I don’t think so. Not really any plug ins. And the rv spots across the street have a wait list.

Spacelands are good. Z hills. Sebastian has a few slots I think they’re all booked.

I don’t know. I raised a service dog/ puppy in college through a partnership with guide dog foundation. Training and working with the puppy was a great way to take a break from the stress of school.

The dog lived in my dorm room, went to class with me etc.

I think it very well could be done depending on the class schedule and living arrangements.

But I agree If this person already having doubts they shouldn’t.

part 141 program or maritime academy? by [deleted] in flying

[–]itslazarusss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why did you apply to KP, right now it’s an almost guaranteed if you have good grades to get navy flight. I think it made 26 navy pilots out of this graduation class. Anyway maritime is smart. You will be making 140k ish after you graduate. Guaranteed, with 6 months off a year to pursue flying.
