Adaptive skydiving:12th tandem progression dive prior to AFF

Using the tandem progression, leading to AFF method of learning, I am in the process of learning to skydive alone-solo.

Being paralyzed is a challenge in free fall stability, but under canopy all is equal, except the landings.
I must do a precise 'butt slide' landing each time_not to break my tail bone.

This is the reason for the extra # of tandem dives, which are useful and necessary to develop canopy skills to land safely in this position.

Skydiving is a sport with the potential to seriously injure or kill you, I do not recommend anyone try this without serious consideration and proper coaching.
