PhreeZone 20 #60 November 7, 2003 Yeah... what got me was the 3 year requirement. I had 500 jumps and still needed to wait a few months to get the needed time in. I know of a lot of young jumpers, but not many of them have more then 100 jumps or so.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #62 November 7, 2003 QuoteI know of a lot of young jumpers, but not many of them have more then 100 jumps or so. It really all comes down to motivation. Last year (2002) that March I did my 100th jump. I decided that I should jump more, so I got a job at the DZ, started cutting back the $$ going to other things I didn't need and started jumping my nutz off. So it pisses me off when I hear the "I can't jump much b/c I'm in college." My parents haven't paid damn thing in my skydiving world (I take that back, they were worried about me and bought a cypres), and I'm in college and I've made a lot of jumps and have progressed in this sport. Its all about motivation. What are you willing to sacrifice to keep you in the air?--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

kris12 0 #63 November 7, 2003 I'm 24, but I will be 25 in about a month and a half. Just another thing to make me feel old....

Kat1221 0 #68 November 7, 2003 I'm 18 - started jumping with a friend who is also 18. A few people are 23-26 at my DZ, but mostly an older crowd. Never notice the age difference though - its not an issue. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Conquest150 0 #72 November 7, 2003 just turned 18 a couple months ago and i have a little over 250 jumps with 160 of them being from january to last sunday. I picked up the pace alot this year to try and make the 200 before they raised the jump number and i just never slowed down. i would jump even more but my mom hates it that i jump this much and put all my money into skydiving(almost have 2 complete rigs, 5 jumpsuits, 4 different helmets, and soon to have a camera setup) all i can say is that she better be thankful that im still passing all my classes in school Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
