i've done AFF stage 1 and 2...
i felt similar to you about the first jump, so i thought i should try again. my situational awareness was far better for the second jump, to the point where i could recall everything... much more satisfying than the first.
in stage 2, rather than just having a look around, you also get to do the delta position thing, in order to track... this was fuggin sick. i put my arms back, and went nose-down a tiny bit, then when i remembered to straighten out my legs i just took off. really interesting sensation.
i think it can only get better as you progress, and learn new skills. the first couple of jumps is just to make sure you're not going to let go of everything in your head when you let go of the plane. when they know you've got your shit together, things will start to get more interesting. i'll definitely go back "a few more times".
get another hit, i say... if you still feel "meh", then i guess it isn't for you?
