Anytime you add anything extra to the skydive, it creates more potential for problems. You need to be an experienced jumper because you'll be having to concentrate on videoing or taking pictures in addition to your regular skydive with other people. That's a lot to think about, so you better be on your toes and know what you're doing. Take baby steps, you'll get there someday.

One year old jumper?!?! Wow, you seem remarkably literate and well-spoken for one so young. Were you able to sign the waiver yourself or was it done by proxy? And where on earth did you find a DZ that had a minimum age that low? ;)
Anyway, welcome to the boards and to blue skies. Even though my first jump was MANY years ago (SL also with old suplus military gear - T10, chest mounted reserve, capewells etc) I also vividly remember the "terror" I experienced. But hey, I was young, and I got over it.
Keep at it DOC, have fun, and stay safe.

Welcome to the forums.

One mile stone down (1 year in) Take it in small steps and someday you might get paid to jump and do videos for others. We all wish we had a vid of every jump. But really. How ofter would you watch them. Just get a vid of the important one.
