I'm new to the sport, and love it! I've done two tandems. The first tandem I drove myself to the dz, pulled off to the side of the road 6 times.
Took AFF class, but couldn't afford to jump the same day. Plan to do first jump on Aug 5th. Scared to death to do the first jump, but that's what keeps me going back.
This is an expensive, and addictive sport. I'm constantly trying to figure out how to get more $$$ to jump again.
