Hayden 0 #1 August 5, 2010 Hey there Well, I did my first tandem last weekend at Skydive Vancouver in Abbotsford, BC. I never went into it thinking it would be more than a one time thing, but I left somewhat hooked. But I guess I picked a good weekend to try it! They were hosting their annual Boogie, so it was quite an introduction to the sport. I loved it. And alas, have decided to do the AFF program. This site is amazing. I could read these threads and articles on skydiving for hours and I know I will find it useful for years to come I'm sure I've asked them all the questions I felt I needed to know prior to selecting this DZ for my AFF training, but I wonder if anyone with more experience can suggest some specific questions I should be asking related to safety and training that a beginner wouldn't think to ask? See you on the flip side! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingFrank 0 #2 August 5, 2010 Welcome to dropzone. I am in your exact shoes, jumped once thinking that would be it. Now I'm hooked. And I have spent hours on these forums just trying to absorb as much info as I can, and I gotta tell you there is alot of useful information on this website. Watch out though, there is alot of bogus stuff, too. Let us know how your progress goes!Some people spend their whole lives afraid to die that they never truly live.
