I was also a DZ kid and became jumper on my 15th birthday. I witnessed all the DZ shinanigans at an early age and to this day have yet to date or become involved with a skydiver. Not saying I wouldn't, I just learned which ones to stay away from. Claire sounds like a smart girl, I'm sure she's figured it out too.Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sangi 0 #42 July 3, 2009 In Lithuania many young people start skydiving.. I started at 17, there are a few girls who started at 16-17, I know two guys who are doing their AFF's now, one is 15, the other is 16... You can skydive here at the age of 14 (however you need a signed parents permission), when you're 16 you no longer need the signed parent permission..

virgin-burner 1 #43 July 3, 2009 i know you from bj.com, so let me ask you a question; do you think its only a coincidence why so many jumpers from "russia" (ex-UDSSR) come to the valley of death to die there!?“Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.
