From tandem to AFF at Hibaldstow
Can't Post
Hi all! I did my first tandem skydive at Hibaldstow in the UK last week for my 23rd birthday! I knew I was hooked from the second we jumped! Now saving to do my AFF as soon as possible. Just wanted to introduce myself to everyone in the sport. Nic x

Welcome to the forums! Good luck on saving money. It's expensive the first year, but so worth it!

Hi Nic Welcome to jumping in the UK. You might want to take a look at the UK boards as well www.ukskydiver.co.uk and www.justskydivers.com (i think) BTW - you are right it will be expensive - but worth it! Regards James

Hi welcome! I can totally relate to doing the tandem and being hooked the second you are out the door of the plane. I was.
