newbie4ever 0 #3 February 21, 2007 looking at your profile it doesn't say how many BASE jumps you have. if that's what your looking for? what's your experience level? what's your object experience? if your a skydiver with only bridge experience i can't take you anywhere that i know of. PM if you have at least 50- 60 jumps and at least 7 objects. good luck!

I only have one jump in Florida but I have seen plenty of objects there that are perfectly suitable for beginners given the correct weather conditions (i.e. winds) and gear set-up.

Jumping with someone means taking on at least some responsibility for their safety (especially since he'd be introducing these objects to him), so it seems quite reasonable to me that he'd set a higher standard for a new jump partner that he doesn't know.Looking for newbie rig, all components...

He also offered me a certificate he had for a discount on a PD reserve. Not that any of that means shit BASE jumping, but it shows the kind of person he is.
