BaronVonBoll 0 #26 November 12, 2008 Ok Ok to make it clear. I said Id pay for the fjc and the first two jumps. She has been working hard, Ill give her that and I relented to a 3.5 gpa. Looks like she shouold make it by the end of the week. Heaven help me when she straps on my rig and tries to fly down of the hill we live on >>>(just kidding) And yes she thought she would drum up support if she posted on here lol.

kimemerson 7 #30 November 13, 2008 Actually, one jump is in fact the minimum requirement for a skydive to kill you. yep, one is all it takes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyh2omedic 0 #31 November 13, 2008 Both my son and daughter jump. Son has his "A" and daughter has done 2 tandems and 30 minutes in the tunnel. I let them both hang out at boogies. I say do it-great time together. We are talking about traveling to some boogies next yr. The one thing i'll mention is that i had different emotions when my daughter jumped. My son did static line progression and i jumped with him in the same FJC. Worried my ass off when my daughter jumped tandem with a good friend-weird and hard to explain the feelings. But i'm very much into the girl power thing and love to see her and her friends conquer. She has group of girls she grew up with and they are adventure chicks big time-very cool. Good luck, enjoy, take pictures."You can't teach what you don't know and you can't lead where you won't go" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
