Well with the loan for my rig + jumps I spend about $300 a month to jump. THat usaully gets me about 8 jumps a month! I know it isnt much but its better thatn not jumping. And once I get my loan paid off theres more money and jumps, but I do have a wife and kid and one on the way to think about to!! But I'm still young and just starting out so I imagine things will pick up as I progress!!!:)jason

How much money do you folks spend a year on skydiving?

Almost all of it! Let's see ... 55 jumps last year x $27/per jump... $40 for the last reserve repak (and another due now), $300 for the jumpsuit, about $140 for the helmet, around $250 for an audible, $100 for the good goggles, 3 days of debaunchery at a boogie -- no exact $ figure from that, but add in food a booze... ya, it all adds up - that's for sure!
