robbyesc 0 #1 July 29, 2010 Hey, I'm turning 16 in a couple of months, and I read that some drop zones allow 16 year olds to jump. Does anyone know any drops zones in the south east (SC, NC, GA, FL, TN, AL) that I could legally do a tandem sky dive with parent consent. Thanks for reading this and please respond.I want to be a skydiver, I'm here for the inspiration! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you can find one that offers Static Line training, I think you'll be able to jump. May need parental signatures on the waivers though."Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people." - SIX TIME National Champion coach Nick Saban Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skydive Opelika in Tuskegee, AL, has a static line program and Im 99% sure they take 16yr olds with parental consent. The jumping place in Saint Marys, Ga, might also take 16 year olds... Dont really think youre going to find a DZ that does tandems at 16 though.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robbyesc 0 #5 July 29, 2010 Thank you guys for all the replies. Looks like I'll have to do a static once I turn 16. It should still be an awesome experience. Then at least I'll be tided over until I'm 18. Thanks for all the answers and the informationI want to be a skydiver, I'm here for the inspiration!
