airtimebabe24 0 #2 September 3, 2006 AWW! i would absolutely LOVE to do a night jump or sunset skydive. As far as the night jump, how many jumps do they recommend having before going? or do they even say? im on jump # 25. and i would love to go....."The most wasted day of all is that upon which we have not laughed..."

Some DZs may make you have more than that. Sunset loads ... no minimum requirement that I'm aware of."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

yamtx73 0 #5 September 3, 2006 Actually the SIM states: QuoteSkydivers participating in night jumping should meet all the requirements for a USPA B license or higher You don't actually need the B license, just meet the requirements for one.The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

And there are those that would argue the point that "should meet" is not the same as "required".Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
airtimebabe24 0 #7 September 4, 2006 Either way, its good to know. Im not ready yet, obviously, with only 27 jumps under me. But someday....."The most wasted day of all is that upon which we have not laughed..." Nicholas Chamfort. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"should meet" isn't the same as required.. the way I read it is you don't need the B license, but have qualified for one...The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

Of course, it doesn't really matter how you or I interpret it, but how the DZO or S&TA at the DZ hosting the night jumps interprets it.
