SaskatooNewb 0 #1 July 6, 2008 hey dropzone, my name is Jason. My highschool years were pretty lame so its time to make it up. I'm 25 and looking for some jumping buddies around saskatoon, SK Canada. I've never jumped before but its like an itch i've been wanting to scratch BAD.. So where do i get started? :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BIGUN 1,314 #2 July 6, 2008 1. Start Here 2. Pick one 3. Call 4. Go 5. Begin First jump course P.S. This is not a passion; its an addiction. Good luckNobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SaskatooNewb 0 #4 July 6, 2008 Great.. I'll probably do it august 1st. So if i want to be broken in hard, should I do the Tandem or go right into the IAD? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HeatherObscura 0 #10 July 10, 2008 i think that a tandem is good for your first jump, you dont want to be worried about all the responsibilities you need to do to survive if youre straped to someone, you know? my first tandem was incredible..my first solo was a total sensory overload and i barely got the chance to enjoy the scenery... so i say do a tandem, just to know what it feels like to fly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
