FlyingJ 0 #3 November 11, 2004 Or maybe if he isn't quite that good a friend but you know he is going to do a tandem jump you could offer to purchase the video for his jump (which usually runs between $50 and $80 dending on format, etc.) A lot of dropzones could probably even do a gift certificate for it.Killing threads since 2004.
