On Thursday 14th August I left Perris to head for San Francisco. I have done more jumps at Perris than anywhere else so far on my trip, 20 in total including the balloon jump. The owners of Perris were kind enough to let me have the first 4 jumps free in view of the NACC cause. I always knew I would do more jumping in the USA than anywhere else, particularly at ZHills (17 jumps) and Perris. Again at Perris I have learnt more about my own skydiving and what I need to do to improve things - looks like I will be wearing a lot of weight when I jump FS in future. The sit flying I started in ZHills is coming along quite well now, thanks to the initial coaching from Pip. I will keep working on that going forward.
I have been staying at Dennis Sattlers house, its been really good, a real home from home for me. Dennis had a last minute surprise for me in that he gave me $100 for NACC. Again I continue to be surprised by the generosity of people. john 15/8
