pseudonym 0 #1 May 4, 2005 I joined this site about 3 months ago and have finally decided I should make my first post here ... what can I say I must be shy or something So far, jumpwise, I have one tandem under my belt, all thanks to the Royal Exchange hotel and Redcliffe City Skydiving (yeah I won it for being best looking in the bar or something like that ). you can look at the pictures we took at http://photosbycolin.smugmug.com/gallery/403585 (for anyone who is that intertested). I am studying in Korea at present and, on advice from the boys at RCS, am not going to do my A license here (fair call, any thoughts ??). Will get home, save up and do my course in Oz ... some time next year. Basically think I want to jump because I am scared of heights (in particular falling from them ) and I loved my tandem (the look on my face in those pictures I think gives a pretty clear indication of when my fear turned to exhiliration ... and it tooka while ). Look forward to learning more and getting right into it. stay safe all ColinBecause it's there - Mallory Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
