Hi there, apologies if this is in the wrong section or has already been answered as this is my first post. I turn 16 next month and since as long as I can remember I have been interested in skydiving. Recently I found out about the RAPS courses available. Due to pricing (since parents would pay for the course for my birthday) this seems like a very good way to get into what will hopefully become a lifelong interest. I just have a couple of questions that I would be interested to have answered. Would RAPS be a good course for someone with no experience? If I continue with the RAPS program, How many jumps would it take to become fully qualified to AFF 8 standard, and what would a rough estimate of price per jump be? Once I am qualified, will I have to have my own equipment or is it widely available to rent? And finally, how much would you say a full set of equipment would cost, bearing in mind that I am very light? (about 9.5 stone) Thanks again, Andy
