flyhi 24 #9 May 1, 2003 6.4139% includes prorating reserve repacks (assume every 120 days) and ~ $300/year for misc purchases (tube stows, goggles, batteries for Time Out, repairs,...). Does not include travel expenses, entertainment cost, or non-skydiving clothing needing replaced.Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

mccordia 74 #10 May 1, 2003 About 1/4th of my income solidly the past few months (only counting jumps) Next to the new cypress, a 2nd hand rig, vacation to Ampuria and a ton of other stuff (also the past few months:) I think I come close to 1/3 of my salary if you count everything jump-related..:)JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

BoobieCootie 0 #12 May 1, 2003 I'd say about a good 10-20%. But my commander in chief as put a limit on my jump allowance. So what I do is put the un-used budget as credit on my DZ A/C and that my friends, is my off-shore bank account Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Push 0 #13 May 1, 2003 About 60% -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy. All you have to do is relax while plummetting at 120 mph from 10,000' with nothing but some nylon and webbing to save you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
