So after some reading, is it really better to do some tandems first? I mean do you really get the feel of whats going on with a tandem versus an AFF?

I am so exited about doing this!! I keep looking at pictures and wish that I could do it tommorrow!!

o.k. well how far away from yuma is eloy? and the more I think about it, a couple of tandems would be a safer way to introduce myself.

Oh, and I am terrified of heights but I know this is something that I want and have to do...

Let me introduce myself.... My name's Sisco or the Sisco kid if you will. I'm 28 years old and have been interested in skydiving for years. The other day a friend of mine at work tells me that he jumps, and started telling me that my first jump doesn't have to be a tandem but I can do AFF. This of course exited me and I'd like to do my first jump soon. I'm in Maryland and it's starting to get cold here, and since I don't know much about the sport, I'm thinking that it's too cold to jump. However, I will be in Yuma, Arizona in January and maybe that'll be a good place to start since it will be warmer there. So if anyone lives near there and knows a good DZ to start my training please reply. the not quite yet rookie, a.k.a. Sisco Kid
