Jumping with oxygen

[mjl06750 0]

I'm doing my first tandem on the 7th from 18,000ft and from what I hear I need to breathe oxygen for the jump. Probably a rookie question but do I breathe it on the way up and then jump without it? I'm pretty sure I don't need it for the short time it takes to get to 15,000 ft or wherever the air starts but I figured I'd ask out of curiousity. Thanks

You'll only need it for the ride up. Have fun on your jump!

Thanks a bunch. I figured that was the deal but I figured I'd ask. I can't wait.

Look out for boogers on the cannula...




Have Fun .

Sounds like something you can't wash off! Will do!

I was just teasing you. Where are you going to jump, at the Space Center in Florida? They should give you a new cannula, still sealed in the plastic. If they don't? Insist.

Thanks! As the 7th gets closer the anticipation is growing. I have a feeling I'm about to become addicted to this.
