IhaveAQUESTION 0 #1 June 27, 2012 Is it worth it to get a video? it costs 80dollars a person Also there is a 40dollar difference between 10k and 14k jumps would a 14k be worth it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TampaPete 48 #2 June 27, 2012 Odds are you’re going to jump once. Buy the vid. Buy the air. Remember, it’s a risky sport. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

None of that was available when I made my first jump. I still wish I had a snapshot (which was not even an an option). lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris3D 0 #4 June 27, 2012 Definitely get the extra altitude. As for the video, it's probably good to get it... it'll let you relive the experience over and over. The only exception would be if you're not particularly comfortable on camera. I'm not, I always get tong-tied or blank when asked something and look like a fool , so for me, video can be a little awkward. Having said that, I'm still glad I got it on my first jump, but I enjoyed my second (without video) much more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon2 2 #5 June 27, 2012 Definately take video. Extra altitude, by all means if you want it, but 9-10k is also fine to jump from. 14k will ~double your freefall time, but not everyone will notice this or even enjoy this all that much, especially on their first jump everything will probably go past very fast for you anyway. So my 2 cents: video a big yes, extra altitude sure if you can afford it and think you'll enjoy the jump better. ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
