I am looking at purchasing my first canopy. I am fairly new with just aquiring my A licence. Looking for info on the different canopy types and which would be better for me. I am pretty conservative with my C.C. and not into swooping just yet. Looking to get the most for my money, but also with advantage of upgrade later. Any thoughts?

Been looking at both of them, they both seem pretty good. Same price basically, will confess, haven't tried them on yet, but just trying to see what others think about them. Any info is cool info.

I am looking into buying a skydiving helmet and just want some thoughts on what to look for. First off, I really don't see myself doing any camera action, so don't need a camera helmet. Just looking for one that that I can do some great freeflying around in. I wear shades when I jump, Curv-Z to be exact, and I have noticed with the helmets at my D.Z. they squeeze my shades on my temples. Really uncofortable. Any help would be cool.

Just thought that I would give this a shot on here, why not. I am getting my personal training cerfication in a couple of weeks and reside in Atlanta, GA. If anyone needs a personal trainer or nutrional advice, email me at [email protected]. I have a culinary background, so I also cook food for my clients. I am also a personal chef for anyone with fine dining needs (1-15 people, 3-8 courses) If you are interested in this or have any questions that I can answer for you, email me. Thank-you

You know it is funny, I am more scared of getting hurt on the way to and from the dropzone than I am in the air with other jumpers.

Don't worry so much about your first jump, this one was mainly for fun. When you start the AFF program, then it really gets fun. Skydivers are strange people, we love to fall down... just remember to pull! oh yeah, we are the knights the ni!!

How much are kids these days? Just wondering for ,errr, a friend, yeah that's it!

I think I'll stick with my Airwalks till they break off!!

Jump?! Out of a perfectly good plane?! Are you nutz?! Don't you love the fact that you are, otherwise you wouldn't be doing it!! Welcome to world of skydiving Sundown. The fun is only beginning!!

Looking for people in and around the Atlanta area that would like to do some jumping on Sundays. This is my only day off and would like to make the most of it. I head to ASC in Thornton, GA, pretty cool bunch of guys and gals. If you are up for it, send a note. Also, just got into the sport recently, now working on my "A" license. Come out for some fun and beer!

Anyone jump curve-z shades from lane, thinking about buying them, look cool, but don't know about the feel. Are they worth the $30 bling-blings?

Too excited, just completed levels 5,6,7 today with flying colors, no pun intended, or maybe there was!! Finally off student status!! Now comes the task of trying to get my "A" licence. If any help to what I should know that could speed it along, would be appreciated. Ribs and Beer baby!!

rock-a-bye baby in the airplane.....

I still have 3 more jumps to complete, I would have been done if it wasn't for this stupid rain we have been having for the past 3 weeks here in Atlanta. Arrrgh! I need to get to high!! (pun intended!)

If anyone knows of any tunnels in Georgia where I can get some practice freeflying, I would like to know. Thanx

Check out the book "The Skydiver's Handbook" It was a great help to me before I took my first dive which was a tandem. I helps you to understand the sport, gives you great pre-jump knowledge, and lets you know exactly what you are getting into.

Welcome back to skydiving. I guess I don't feel so bad running into the trees on my level 2 AFF!

I am just about to complete my Aff certification and am looking for anyone that wants to jump for fun and good times. I feel a little overwhelmed jumping with the pros that work there, plus they kind of look at me like I am still a puppy in the sport, which of course I am. Although I have impressed a couple of them with moving quickly through my levels, I just need to jump with someone on my skill level. Fun is of course what it's all about.
