tomasurii 0 #1 June 12, 2008 Had my first jump yesterday (AFF) @ Skydive Tecumseh in Michigan. Jumped with Pete and Victor. I'd always dreamed about flying, yesterday I did. All my other hobbies are suddenly unimportant. All I can think about is that next jump!life is a near death experience. George Carlin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lawdog1 0 #7 June 14, 2008 Were you one of the AFF's that got weathered out last weekend? I was out there on wednesday and was hoping you guys could make your first jumps. From someone who was in your place 2 years ago: WELCOME TO THE FAMILY. Although a strange analogy: like vampires, once you jump (bitten), from now on, things just aren't the same and you can never go back!
