Cold

1 week in Spain and got my AFF, superb weather.

First jump in the UK, and it's bloody freezing. When I jumped out I was expecting the flow of adrenalin through my veins, but I think my blood was having trouble enough as it was.

Any good tips, as its spoiling my fun!

Hey!

Congrats and welcome!

Jumping in the UK, especially now it's getting cooler can be a bind so the real tip is simple - lotsa layers !

Seriously - if you want to jump lots in the winter, I'd invest in some thermals as well as a decent set of gloves. (practice your EPs lots wearing any new gear!)

Other than that, there's not a lot to do except pile on the layers and grin and bear it, or move somewhere nice!

oh - you may want to fill in your profile - number of jumps etc... it'll help people give you more targetted advice

Ideal plan for after Xmas.

Why wait until after Christmas? Come out to Eloy for the holiday boogie! Mind you, even Arizona's been kind of chilly the last couple of Christmases...

Which means you gotta snuggle to keep warm.
