<p>[QUOTE="tscottme, post: 12374834, member: 19119"]Good for you. It sounds like you are getting the most out of your school experience. When the opportunity presents itself, you will benefit from more backing practice. That's the one skill you really need when you get out on your own. Even with lots of experience, some days you can't help but do it like you do it 5 times per day at that one spot. Other days you just can barely get into the door like you it's your first backing attempt after 5 years of vacation. Learn to back when you don't have as much room directly in front of the dock door as you would like and also learn how to back into a door when you don't have as much room to the left of the dock door as you would like. Backing is what separates most rookies from old-timers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
