Springi 0 #1 February 1, 2008 Hi guys! 1 hour ago I had the 1st skydive of my life!!! Now it would be brilliant if someone could give me some information about a carrier in skydiving! It sounds maybe a little bit funny now after my 1st jump but I want do that since I'm 13 years old! Where should I make my schooling?! I heard about the New Zealand skydive school witch goes for 9 Months: you pay AUD 15000$, get your training and 200 dives for it. But I have nothing to compare with it.. so would be nice if you could held me! Thanks Klemens Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pawel 0 #2 February 1, 2008 Plan a nice vacation to U.S. Pick a DZ with nice weather. Contact the DZ ask about AFF program and price. Or pick a DZ in Europe do the same thing. Contact multi DZ's so you could get the best deal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mwabd1 0 #4 February 1, 2008 i think he has wanted to jump since 13 and assume he is of age...... A career in skydiving, as far as the school in NZ just do a search as it has been discussed alot in the past. However if you want to live in a small tent or travel trailer, make little money, sacrifice your body and generally be a poor nomad...... THAN A LUCRATIVE CAREER IN SKYDIVING IS FOR YOU!.......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

377 22 #10 February 20, 2008 13? Amazing! Go to college, go to graduate school, get into a good profession. Skydiving is a great hobby but a difficult career. Skydivers want everything dirt cheap. That attitude makes all those who depend on skydiving for a living dirt poor. The pros lead exciting but relatively impoverished lives. How skydiving professionals can buy a house, raise a family and send their kids to college baffles me. Perhaps they marry a rich tandem student?2018 marks half a century as a skydiver. Trained by the late Perry Stevens D-51 in 1968. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
