  1. Hello. I'm Ali. My partner just bought his first rig this weekend and we're in the process of incorporating his skydving healthfully into our relationship. We had a conversation last week about how the general public just "doesn't get it" and if I'm honest with myself, part of me doesn't completely get it either. Therefore, I'm posting here because I know skydiving is a powerful part of all of your lives and I want to understand it. The easiest thing to do would probably to do some diving myself, but that would be difficult. A middle ear condition runs in my family, and when I did dive, I got terrible vertigo for 2 days. In sum, I'm not a woofo, but I feel like one. Thanks.
  2. I'm sure most of you have gone trhough this at some point. My partner's father called me last night in order to persuade my man to stop skydiving. There was an undercurrent of "If you really cared about our son, you would give him an ultimatim to stop." My response was more along the lines of "Because I love him, I want him to be happy and skydiving makes him happy." In case this becomes an ongoing thing (I have a feeling it will), are there any suggestions on how to appease the potential rents' in law? I thought of telling him that recreational drugs, a favorite activity of his other son, are far more dangerous than skydiving. This doesn't really seem like an option.
  3. This is my cameo to dropzone.com. Let's just say, since my man is being with me tonight on our predetermined "night to ourselves," I'll buy the helmet. He's on his own for the cypres.
