    Thanks for that scoop, Just about the platform you use to practise PLF's, On average how high is the platform? I have tried to look at some clips of PLF's but can't find too much. I have seen a diagram which says - land on 2 feet and then roll. Is this correct?

    Hello i am Joanne. I have just joined this site to find out a few questions about skydiving and was hoping you guys who actually jump could help me? What are the landings like? Is it like jumping off the roof of a house, off a chair, off a wall, a step? Also is it very fast? When you come in do you land with 2 feet and stop or do you fall on to 1 foot then start running? I have read up but have not found an answer - it says you have to be able to jump of a wall at 6ft and run between 0-15mph. Surely if you jumped of a 6ft wall and tried to run at the same time it would be impossible? i have looked at videos and it seems like it isn't that hard but have never jumped so i wouldn't know? I ask this because i have bad knee's but would like to take up the sport. I see there are a lot of people who have worse injury's but skydive which i think is fantastic. Many thanks to you all
