cessna172 0 #1 April 30, 2008 Hello I am set to make my first ever jump this saturday. It will be a pff jump. From canada eh. I booked on april 6 and this has been a very long month. Nobody in my family wants to hear any more about skydiving so i guess this is the place to talk skydiving. If anybody wants to reply to this i will be reading every post. I am five foot five and one hundred and fourty five pounds. Thank You Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #4 May 1, 2008 Welcome to the forums! Enjoy your jump-let us know how you like it! She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cessna172 0 #9 May 1, 2008 The reasoning behind me putting in my weight is to find out if i need weights to jump because i am a little guy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is an old saying that goes something like: If riding in an airplane is flying, then sitting in a boat must be swimming. You have to get out into the element to experience it. Good luck with the class and let us know how that first jump goes! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
