Chances are your DZ won't be open during the winter. My DZ is open during the winter, weather permitting of course.

If he's not that interested, why do u even need to ask?? lol. And I do know people who hated their first (and only) jump. The 2 girls I went with the first time I ever went.

Thanks for the input guys. I think I'm just gonna go ahead and get my license. Even if I can only jump 3 times per trip, 2 weekends a month until I am done with school, it's worth it to me. I reccently quit smoking so I'll have some extra money floating around and I need a new hobby. Still wondering if anyone has done AFF or AFP during winter months? Or how it is jumping in winter??

Hey Guys!!! I did my second tandem dive this past weekend and already have my 3rd planned (in 2 weeks!) I am a 25 year old female from Minnesota hoping to go through AFP later this summer. =) Just wanted to say Hey!

Gotta be 18 in Minnesota! Sucksssss cuz I wanna take my nephew whos 16.

I have completed 2 tandems so far and have already purchased my 3rd and know when I am going (2 weeks from now)!! I am very very interested in going through the AFP at a local DZ. I just have a few questions for those with licenses already... How often do you skydive? Do you have your own equipment? I am a little over an hour away from the closest DZ and am a college student. I have the $$ for the AFP program but I am worried that I will need all my own equipment (which is super spendy!). Also, I would probably only be free (money-wise and time-wise) to go to the local DZ and jump once or twice a month at least until I'm not a student anymore.. Is this enough time to commit to stay good at skydiving and improve? Or would I need to commit more time to it than 2x a month, a few jumps per trip..?? Also, I live in Minnesota... BURR!!! So, is it hard to skydive in the winter months? How does that work when trying to keep a license current??? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you, thank you!!
