Tiny steps mate ... do the training and see if you like it...... and being poor..... it sucks money out of your bank account!! Good luck and have fun (.)Y(.)

slingerapie 0 #5 July 14, 2009 Welcome to the forums! After I did my tandem, all I could think of was going back up there. Due to working in weekends it took 3 months before I was in groundschool, but since my first solo jump it has been very addicting. It's not just another hobby anymore for me, it's a bit more. Can't explain it very good I'm afraid. All I can say is that when I'm not jumping, I'm thinking about jumping, or watching video's, prepare for my next teamtraining etcetc..... So be prepared edited to add: never had regrets !! Don't try to live forever, you will not succeed! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
