mondo77 0 #1 January 22, 2011 Just figured I'd come in and introduce myself after getting my A this past Sunday ! Well, I started jumping back in August '10 at Skydive Elsinore. Did my first jump as an AFF course as a 21st birthday present. Loved so I figured I'd come out and do it a second time before my thirty days was up (jump number 2 was 28 days from jump number one ) and after that got completely and hopelessly hooked!! The sport and it's participants are amazing and very welcoming. I'm currently in the process of purchasing my own rig so yes, I am selling EVERYTHING I own that is not skydiving related haha! Gotta pay for it somehow being a broke college kid and all. A big thanks to everyone out at the DZ for helping me get this far and for encouraging me to go further. I have definitely found a lifelong sport Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites david3 0 #2 January 22, 2011 Quote Just figured I'd come in and introduce myself after getting my A this past Sunday !

Congrats - Enjoy - Sell plasma. I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites firemedic 7 #5 January 22, 2011 Congrats man. In 2009 I went to Elsinore to earn my Tandem Rating. It is a great place with some fantastic people. You're going to have a great time. Don't worry about being a broke college student.
