Ill check that out, wow, I thought skydiving was simple according to some websites. They say that training only takes an hour but as far as I see, there is no way that all the stuff I read could be fit into only a single hour. I greatly appreciate all the links and information yall have provided, and Ill definitely research all my options before choosing a DZ. Also, I dunno if it matters or not, but what DZ has the best view???

Great thread, thanks a bunch

haha, but isnt that what its all about?? overcoming your fears... anyhow, how long does it take to reach terminal velocity, cause its the acceleration that gives you that gut feeling right??

Hey all, My name is Rob and Im from Long Island NY and I had a goal to skydive before I turned 20. I just turned 19 so this is the year, so you know. haha, Ive been searching online for places to skydive and I thought, "why not ask people who have experience?". I was wondering what were the best places to skydive in the tri-state Area?? I rode rollercoasters and I feared them to death when I first rode em, but after the first ride I was hooked.. Is skydiving similar?? Thanks in advance, Rob
