I did my first tandem a year ago and I was pretty nervous. I wasn't like i'm not gonna jump nervous but you could definitly see it in my eyes on the video! On my second tandem I wasn't nervous at all I was just pumped to get out the door. I have AFF level one on 8/5 and i'm a little nervous just because it's that much more responsibility but I suspect I'll feel better once I go through the class.
Good Luck

flags!

Do a tandem instead of AFF

I was looking at some pics of burning man 2005 and saw some of skydivers coming into camp. just wondering if anyone one here was one of those jumpers and would like the pics.

Sweet good luck man

what bro up here in Vail still trying to do AFF
did 3 day tunnel camp in April

My good buddy from Africa told me the same thing!

N/A

it's not for everybody

famn damily, I like that

Skydiving is dangerous. It is after all SKYDIVING. It's also as much fun as you can have. Risk and reward. Only you can decide that.

Do a tandem first to see if it is for you

Re: Oxygen

People make jumps EVERYDAY from 15K WITHOUT SUPPLEMENTAL OXYGEN. As a student, your concerns about oxygen are irrrelevant.

Oxygen would do nothing. I live at that altitude!

Holy crap that is crazy There is no way in hell they would get me to jump off that cliff. Was she a cliff diver?
