Aviatsionne 0 #1 January 22, 2004 I did my first tandem jump for my 18th birthday this past weekend, it was just ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!...In the video though, I look like a rag doll haha (gotta get that body position correct) I'm actually going to do one more tandem, and then this summer I am going to start my AFF training. I also fly as a hobby, and it was just so liberating to jump out of the machine that I control nearly everyday. As they say, I've been bitten by the bug :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

themitchyone 0 #3 January 22, 2004 Skymama is right... I just recently did my first tandem... at 32. Would have started earlier, if only I had known!!

RyanLikesToFall 0 #4 January 22, 2004 Yeah, you'll be getting a couple of jealous replies I did my first AFF jump about two weeks ago and I'm 18. I never did the tandem, just went straight to AFF. I can't wait to go again, and I'm sure you'll love it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shari 0 #5 January 22, 2004 Way to go......what a way to "jump" into adulthood!!! My freefall was wonderfull (14,500')....can't wait to do it again. The canopy ride is what freaked me out, cuz I then realized how high up I was!! AHHgg! I can't wait to do it again and again...and just think - I'm afraid of heights!!!!!
