##Dear Star<\/p>\n

My answer to this is \u201cyes, there is!\u201d And I hope it only gets bigger, it means as a sport we are progressing, it means we are still learning and improving our understanding of what we can do.

A healthy sport which is growing will inevitably have its spectrum of skill levels grow further apart, and the only way to bridge that void, as Arnold Schwarzenegger puts it, \u201cis to work your butt off\u201d. Arnie\u2019s six rules for success apply not only to Skydiving but life itself. His rules explain way better than I ever could about how to progress through life and become a Skydiving Ninja. I could try to explain it but Arnie does it so eloquently in this video below [longer version at end of article].<\/p>\n
