  3. Hey all...... A few of us are looking at starting a skydiving club. 1. What kind of insurance is needed and who in Ontario supplies this type of insurance... 2. What type of license is needed for a pilot to be aloud to let skydivers jump out. c-182 I'm sure we are over looking things, so if u could point us in the direction we need to be or suggestions that would be greatly appreciated... We are hoping in the long run to create a DZ, but figure for now it would be easier to start a skydiving club with the people around town who have a license and are current... Thanks for any info / suggestions u can give us.... ============================= Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting - "fcuk me what a ride!"

    Helmets

    The Giro helmet is just like the motorcycle and snowmobiling helmets out there.... Goto a after market shop for dirt bikes and snowmobiles... They have a wide range of helmets.... the helmets that look like the Giro are called Moto Cross helmets. Or at least that what my friends and I call them... Of course when we buy these helmets they need to be very snug on your helmet, otherwise they are use less when u crash and hit the dirt / snow..... Some of those helmets come with removeable cheek pads also... these helmets can range from $100 to $1000 Hope this help's ============================= Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting - "fcuk me what a ride!"
