vonSanta 0 #1 December 29, 2003 Complete quote: "Adventure parachuting is the fastest growing market in the world" Taken from this thread about the new NZ jumpplane that crashed. In a recent thread Kallend pointed out that while skydiving had an explosive growth in the 90's, in the last few years USPA membership has actually declined. Does the guy with the "fastest growing" quote know something Kallend doesn't, or is he just trying to soothe potential buyers?

Adriandavies 0 #3 December 30, 2003 Judging from USPA and BPA membership numbers growth seems to have stopped as far as full members and therefore regular jumpers is concerned. Maybe the author was referring to tandems, as this is one area which still seems to be growing like mad. ------------------------------------------------------ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
