freeflying 0 #1 February 17, 2004 hello.. a friend of mine who has become a fanatic skydiver told me to come to this site since I want to take the plunge so to speak... i haven't yet gone on a jump but am looking foward to learning and getting information before I go on my first jump. Its a bit chilly out here in the east so may go when I head out to visit friends in the warm parts of CA first. any advice for me? I think this could be my next big passion... -Catherine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raefordite 0 #4 February 18, 2004 Welcome to dropzone.com and the skydiving community. Lots of skydiving on the east coast, both north and south. Consider traveling up and down the east to save yourself flight costs. That will leave you more $ for jumping. But whatever you decide, enjoy! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
