It's a good idea to stay in USPA if you ever want to become an instructor. There are other agencies out there to get certified through, but USPA is the most prevalent in the US.

The BOD comes to your house and beats you with an ASP. Either that or not much of nuthing, you might miss a month of Parachutist, but that's about it. If you want to save money, bone up and buy a lifetime membership, especially since the dues keep going up in price over the years.

In addition to the magazine, insurance, and licenses/ratings, you also get government representation at the Federal level, and some help at the state level. There are lots of threats to skydiving and USPA is on top of them on our behalf. You could drop your membership and the organization would still be there, but if too many people backed out USPA would not have the same clout with the government, nor the same budget to protect our access to the airspace. I gotta say it's well worth a few dollars a year to keep the government at bay.
