Will be checking those out now!

Thank you and I can't wait to start AFF! Did you just start your AFF or have you already finished it? Haha, my parents' reaction was similar to yours! My dad's pretty enthused about it. Mothers are just another story, I guess. She's said that she's willing to come out to the DZ for all my jumps though, so I suppose that's a step in the right direction! :D

She actually came out to watch my first tandem! And she had a blast watching my jump video. Thing is, she thought it was more of a "She's going to do it once, get it out of her system, and never do it again" kind of thing. Unfortunately, she never thought about the other outcome of me actually wanting to do it again (and again and again..) The chances of her doing a tandem is probably 0. She's deathly afraid of heights, but enjoyed all watching all the canopies in the sky! And the reason I'm doing the second tandem is actually because of my mom; her deal was that I do a second tandem and see if I still like it and then try AFF over next summer when I'm 21. Also because I'd be pressed for time (for the ground school part) since holidays are pretty busy in my family.

Thank you! I got the email about the swoop but just opened it a bit too late to actually plan to go :( Did you make it out to DZ? Would love to hear about it!

Hahaha, that's a good idea! I would give it a try but my mother is the type that would rather REALLY know what I'm doing and not spare her with a euphemism.

Thanks! I can't wait to try out AFF over the summer -- but it's MONTHS away! Haha, I've been talking to everyone I know about trying a tandem and getting them into it as well! So far, about 5 of my friends said that they'd be willing to try it, but the larger majority of them would rather try indoor skydiving first :P

Hello everyone! I did my first jump (tandem) a few weeks ago over at Z-Hills and I haven't been able to get it out of my mind! Funny thing, I didn't even plan on going for a jump! It was my older brother's 25th birthday and I didn't know I was jumping until that morning when he told me he'd booked a jump for the both of us. I had an absolutely fantastic time and I couldn't wipe the smile off my face for a week
