Hi from Long Island NY

Hi everyone, I waited many years for my first jump because I knew that once I try it, its all over! And I was right, Im HOOKED!!! :-)
Did my first tandem jump on saturday and started my AFP on sunday afternoon .
Cant wait to go back, there is SO MUCH to learn, and I love challenges.
Anyway just wanted to say hi everyone. Hope to find a lot of useful info around here.

Congrats extreme! hope you have your license by now. I'm starting a IAF course tomorrow. Any advice for a newbie?

Awesome.

Let us newbies know if you have any advice, ie things we should ask extra help for etc.

Cheers!

Thanks.
My advice would be: relax, have fun and take it one step at the time.
Also, try to get as many jumps in as you can, without rushing it, doing my afp jumps close together helped me stay focused.
I did my AFP in a week and two weeks later got my A license :-). I do live close to the DZ :-), oh yea sold my dirt bike to pay for it too LOL.

Hello to Long Island from Texas! I grew up in Poughkeepsie NY and now I'm in Texas jumping at Skydive Dallas. Enjoy the journey and blue skies!
