Want to come back but have no license

[dmitri76 0]

Hello,

I have 45 jumps but no license and stopped jumping last June :( Now i really want to start again, but if it means taking AFF all over again, then i don't think i can do it. Does anyone know what re-training i'd have to do ? I was jumping alone or with 1-2 people, using a 210 main with throwout .. Does it mean i have to go back to student 288 with a ripcord ? :(
The dropzone was and would be Adventre Skydiving in Hollister, CA.

Thanks !

Take your logbook to the dropzone, ask them.

I've been asking Hollister and a few others what to do if I can talk my buddy into coming back. He stopped when I paused, but so far hasn't returned.

Past a year, many thought it best to start from scratch, but said that he might well do the AFF sequence in much less than the usual 7-8 jumps. OTOH, I took 7 months off and Perris just redid the FJC in a 2-3 hour session and dropped me one level to the release dive. But I only had 8 jumps total.

The weather got real nice in the last couple weekends - it's very green at the LZ. Give em a call.

The only answer that means anything is the one you are going get at the drop zone.
