I think that calls for a Darwin Award...

Ended up ordering another G-Shock. I saw a couple of those Suunto watches at REI, very tempting, but i dont' have $250 to spend on a watch. The $60 i just paid is a bit of a stretch for me (i paid $30 for my first one). I'd do without a watch, but the past few days has shown it would be hard, with my completely random schedule for classes i'm lost. And as i've learned, it's hard to take a test when you don't know how much time you have left. Thanks for the advice.

well put

My ever so handy G-Shock watch of 6+ yrs has finally crapped out on me (and it's not just the battery). Anyone have a suggestion for a watch that could come in handy while skydiving, possibly one with an altimeter on it, but is still useable for more terrestrial activities?

Cool, i was there this past summer doing the same thing and am returning to see some friends and do the stuff i didn't have time (or was too drunk) to do, like check out some of the museums and take a few hikes. I haven't made any plans yet, i just figured while i'm spending money that is better spent elsewhere, like the grocery store or towards rent, i might as well get another jump in.

I'm a newbie to skydiving. I've done one tandem so far with the intention of going through AFF eventually. For Spring Break i'm planning to go to central Mexico (Guanajuato) for a week and if possible, i'd like to add another tandem jump to my itinerary. Does anyone know if there are any DZs in or around the state of Guanajuato (no more than a half days bus ride) that can accomodate a gringo with limited knowledge of spanish? So far i've found Paracaidismo Celaya with an address in Guanajuato, but the website doesn't give much information about where they are.
