Remembering Non-Repeaters
_______________________________
Learning to remember dive sequences is simply a matter of practice.
Starting off with a manageable amount to remember, will guarantee success and
give the skydiver confidence around the subject.
I find out that starting them out with non-repeaters from the
beginning, avoids the trap of thinking they are a big deal. One block and a
single random that non-repeats, is a good start. The student learns both slots
of the block and also begins to do non-repeaters that total only six points, a
very manageable amount. From here, move them up to five and six points’
sequences that non-repeat and, as they begin to get comfortable there, stretch
it out to eight and twelve.
I find the single most effective piece of advice to give is to
understand how the team is moving from point to point. If you are able to see
the dive from the perspective of the entire team’s move, it will not really be
a non-repeater.
If you see everything from what your move is, then you will have to
remember a string of moves ten or twelve deep. If you see everything from what
the team’s move is, you only have to remember a string of moves five or six
deep.
