Hi



Picture this, im 30, 5ft 8" weigh 105kg, and when poured into a jumpsuit i look like a bright orange basketball. was this gonna deture me from jumping into oblivion..........................NOPE
3500ft later i was to discover that adrenline is brown and smells of poop and persil really gets the jumpsuits clean.

I dont know what rock i've ben hiding under since i last jumped, but im off to the DZ in another couple of weeks for my 3 DP static line jumps.

Hooked i havent stopped smililing.

any tips for the novice (overweight) jumper would be appriciated (apart from lose weight)

Peace to all

I'm a new jumper myself, and the only advice I can give, is to get information if you are ever in doubt! This forum is a great place to get experienced information when you have a question about anything related to skydiving!

Have fun and above all STAY SAFE!

Diet and exercise, then get ready to enjoy a long and fun-filled jumping career.

Get books on the subject and study it to be informed.

Get used to large parachutes as they will be the most benefit to you right now.
