Skydivinchic 0 #1 June 5, 2003 Howdy Divers! I am a newbie to all of this and I am really liking a lot of you already. I am planning my first jump in July with hopefully and group... somewhere in South Carolina... probably Chester. Can't wait to meet those who I have chatted with. I can't believe I am looking forward to jumping out of a plane. Marcelle SkydivinChic@aol.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #3 June 5, 2003 Or maybe a Tandem jump that is student training? --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skydivinchic 0 #4 June 5, 2003 I am going tandem first just to see if I will be willing to do it again. I just can't wait..... I have five people going with me to jump for their first times, too! This will be awesome! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
txblondie 0 #5 June 5, 2003 Congrats and welcome! I'm sure you'll love it. When I did my first tandem, the people who went with me were all nervous and didn't want to go, but after we jumped, they were totally happy! Good luck, and have a great time! ***************************************** Blondes do have more fun! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lioness 0 #6 June 5, 2003 Your going to have the time of your life! Warning - you may become addicted. And may cause drainage of savings account. Congrats on your decision to take flight!!! (if you can afford it, I recommend bringing extra cash to do another jump. (as you may want to go right back up once you get down) Sometimes they offer you a discount jump if you go right back up. -Blue Skies- ______________________________________ Be glad of life, because it gives you the chance to love and to work and to play and to look up at the stars.

Amazon 7 #9 June 6, 2003 Be sure to get a videographer to go along to document it. They can use the money and you will have something to really remember from your first jump. I talked a bunch of guys from work into going for it and the one who did the video was COOLS.... the look on his face and that longgggggg SCREAM was to much Amazon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MagicLou 0 #11 June 6, 2003 Congratulations on your decision to jump. I did my first jump in Feb. It was a Static Line. I wish I had a video, but it was way too cold for the cameras. Have fun and do the Video. Let us know how it goes.Lou ___________________________________ . . . now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb - Dark Helmet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

destiny2829 0 #14 June 9, 2003 Hello everyone!! I am in the process of finishing up my requirements to get my A license. Only have my accuracy landings left. I started the AFF program on Easter Sunday, and ever since then I feel like I should have my paychecks direct deposited to the DZ as that is where I spend my days off. Still have a lot to learn, but love every minute of it!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
