6 YEARS LATER...
It was great, I went down to Spaceland in Houston. It was a bit difficult to find a rig that worked for me (6''9") but overall make sure your instructor knows how to work with tall/big people. I had a unique accident where my shoulder popped out at around 10k ft. I didn't know what was happening at the time but thank God I landed safely. I have it all on video too. Learn the basics and memorize the important steps for safety. Let me know if you have any specific questions.
So I just found out my dropzone does not have a big boy rig for students seeking an A-license.
I am 6'9" / 250lbs.
Does anybody know of a dropzone that would offer an A-License for my situation?
I am willing to travel anywhere in the states to make this happen.
Thank you!
I've been a reader on the forums for quite some time now, but decided to finally post.
I am preparing to get my A-License this spring here in Chicago. I am 6'9" 250lbs.
Any advice in regards to preparing for the class or any tips?
Much appreciated!
