Wuffo?

Recommended Posts

i know its someone who doesn't sky dive, but is it someone who doesn't or someone who doesn't want to? where does the name come from?

I believe you remain a wuffo until you've made a skydive... Even if you plan on skydiving someday... At least, that's how it is around here...



nah IMO 'wuffo' only applies to those who cannot grasp why we would do such a thing. anyone interested in (or understanding of, but not interested in trying) doesnt qualify as a "wuffo' to me..i guess we need another catchy title for 'non-skydivers'

now that you know what 'whuffo' stands for, there will come a moment in time when you find yourself faced with a person, answering thier questions, and the difference between an involved and interested bystander and a 'whuffo' will become crystal clear.
namaste, motherfucker.

I'm not saying that's the way it should be, but that's the way it is where I'm from. I was always interested in skydiving, but the folks at the DZ said I was a wuffo until I jumped.

That's the smart way to do it!
How much money does it cost where you're at?

What ever it is it WILL be worth it...
It's an 'investment' in you...it will change your life forever!!!;)

Good luck and Blue Skies :)

See now, I'm sure Zeemax would tend to have some concept as to 'whuffo we jump' so I would have a hard time calling him a whuffo. I don't call all non-skydivers whuffos. I reserve the term for the ones that ask stupid questios (There IS a such thing as a stupid question you know)

no problem with that :)
i want to be in it for the long haul!


i just wish the trip was a little cheaper...



Don't we all....:)Anyhow sometimes you just gotta go for it and just spend the money, however I do know several people that racked up serious credit card bills and don't jump much or at all now because, so be careful.
