Dragpo13 0 #1 March 5, 2010 Hey everyone, I did my first tandem jump in July 09 and have been completely addicted since but haven't had time until recently. I'm about to start my way to Class A this Sat with my first AFF jump at Skydive Orange. Will hopefully complete the rest in a few months if all goes well. If anyone in NOVA is looking for someone to jump with let me know, none of my friends are into skydiving haha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarkDesigner 0 #2 March 5, 2010 Hi man! Welcome to the forums! Glad you're enjoying the sport after one tandem allready, and from this point it only gets better and better. I wished I lived in you're area because I have the same problem, I'm the only one in my group of friends who is crazy enough to jump out of perfectely good airplanes, and pay money for it too!;) Anyway, good times on the forum,and good time while you're doing your AFF (You'll love it, that's for shure!) Blue Skies! Peter Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Southern_Man 0 #4 March 5, 2010 Welcome to skydiving and to Skydive Orange. I'm a newly licensed jumper from there. You won't have any problems meeting people at the DZ and finding people to jump w/ when you are ready. Many of the jumpers live in Northern Virginia. Should be a beautiful day, enjoy your jump."What if there were no hypothetical questions?" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jim_32766 0 #8 March 11, 2010 So how did the AFF class go and did you get the first jump completed? I work part time in the DC area and will have to check out Skydive Orange sometime.
