Getting Started...

[canenero2244 0]

I am dead set on becoming a skydiver. I was born to be up in the sky so I can fall right out of it. But getting involved in skydiving is expensive, and as young as I am (a teenager), I don't have the money. How does one make skydiving their hobby? How does someone without the resources meet the right people, get involved, and become a skilled skydiver?

1. Go to DZ.
2. Become a packer.
3. Save money for AFF.

I am NOT being loud.
I'm being enthusiastic!

Become a packer?

1) Get a job - it doesn't have to be skydiving related.

2) Save money.

Exactly the same way that everyone else buys stuff that lets them do things they want to do.

Sorry - there's no easy answer. Welcome to life.

Other options include getting good job, continuing to live like a college student after actually starting a career (pick and choose : cable TV or 3 more jumps a month. New car, or 12 more jumps a month. Living alone or having a roomate and 20 more jumps a month), selling bodily fluids like plasma or semen, and finding a sugar daddy/momma.

Worked for me in the 1970's, still works today.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)
