Loretta 0 #1 January 22, 2008 I am new to the forums and very happy to be here. Next Saturday I begin a static line course. I have thought about this for a long time and I am ready to make the commitment. This website has helped me so much. I took part of an AFF course (3 jumps) a couple of years ago and have had several tandems. I am starting to feel like any day I don't jump out of a plane is pretty boring. I look forward to chatting with many of you soon. Thanks for the forum, Loretta Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PinPointer 0 #2 January 22, 2008 Dear Loretta, I am new to parachuting, and I looked up AFF. I found Accelerated Free Fall. It seems there are more than a few schools that teach AFF. Sounds exciting. Best of Luck! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Loretta 0 #5 January 22, 2008 There is only one local DZ (the other one closed) and they only offer SL. :) So I'll take it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
