To explain a bit. I searched for the word spotter, JMT's response came up and I saw a fitting angle of attack so I moved in for the levity to post something kinda important. Better have a good spotter.
Go out and have fun. You'll learn more by doing. Its been mentioned to pay attention to a spotter--pick one and listen only to them. Cant count how many times I have had 5+ people telling me what to do and it can be frustrating.
