Any one else interested in doing this? On my bucket list. For many years I have been wanting to do this. Have a good bit of repelling but not skydiving or parachuting experience.
You can have my spot.
I've thought about it, but I'd rather cage dive with Great White sharks (yes, that's on my list.....)
I will gladly take your spot! Had a chance to do it in Hawaii in 2006 but decided to take a glider ride with my wife instead. Going to try and set up a date and time this year at an airport about 40 miles from where I reside.
Been their . . . done that.
It is a younger mans game. Fairly costly in the civilian world also.
A good jump school will guarantee their chutes. If it fails for any reason,you can take it back and they will switch it for another . . . FOR FREE !! ---- SAWMAN
I did it as a short lived hobby in 76. I think it was a "Gumby" manual, a couple hours ground school and jumps the next day using mil surplus 28 ft chutes. No tandem, did two static line, three hop & pops then true free fall. First few were exciting then it lost the thrill/rush and wasn't worth more time and money. I recommend it for anyone who is a thrill seeker. It might just be a check in the Box or become a full blown passion.
I keep looking into powered paragliding. The beach runway is a few blocks away and watching them from the backyard isn't reducing the temptation.

I have a parachute I’ll sell ya. It’s in good shape, never been opened. Only used once.....small stain.
