I have failed 3 D1 jumps in a row because my Arch is shit and I start spinning out of control. It's so easy in theory but so hard to make it in the air :(
@Timothy Pickard Hello Tim Yes, I eventually got it. It was very frustrating at first. The AFF jumps and the A license jumps sucked big time because you don't actually enjoy the skydives since your only focus is to pass each category and make each jump as per the requisites. After repeating the D jumps several times, one of my instructors recommended me to change my body position, and that make day and night difference to me, I was finally able to arch stable (not perfect but stable) which allowed me to finally get my A license. Once you finally get your A license and you are free to jump with your own clothes and rig, each jump is just beautifull and you finally start enjoying skydiving, and you finally have time to start playing around and learn how your body reacts to wind, which makes your arch and free fall better and better. Have a look at the recommendation I posted here, it might help: czcams.com/video/wDc1dR1Z0Bg/video.html&lc=UgxC7Q8HCGza5xBjM4l4AaABAg.948KMDTX8Kj9DRdYtNvyoo&ab_channel=SkydiveVibes
@Timothy Pickard Understandable. I didn’t pass my lvl 2 spun out, wobbled a bit. So I’m planning on doing another 10 minute tunnel and then my lvl 2 again next week. 😬
I had the same thing so I went to ifly today it is kinda different because your not falling but I noticed this I would got to do a turn and I would get it then I wouldn't all because I was over thinking it.
