tfelber 0 #1 March 5, 2007 In another post about background checks prior to selling gear the topic of how should we deal with new jumpers today. While there are accepted ideas about dealing with new jumpers it seems, due to the changing world, that maybe this topic should be re-visited. I've had several friends ask me about getting into BASE, and while I think I could put my five year old son off the potatoe bridge without incident, I generally suggest they not even get into it. Or I tell them to just have fun skydiving. I tell them I'm not interested in getting anyone involved and at the same time I have loaned my gear to three different first time jumpers for BD. So what are your thoughts on this and how should it be done? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
