  1. Haha sweet, to tell you the truth my main goal is to fly in a wingsuit, but I get the impression you can't exactly go from 0 experience to BASE jumping. Thanks for your input guys, but can I ask what exaclty do you mean by "packing"? I have no idea what that means. Packing a chute? How does that save money? I pack other people's chutes? Thanks again!
  2. Hi guys! I'd like to introduce myself to these forums. I'm from Montreal and have a considerable fear of heights which has always bothered me. So naturally I thought I'd LOVE skydiving. No truth is, skydiving/base jumping/wingsuits have always fascinated me just like most of you guys, and I think now is finally the time to go ahead and follow my urge to try it. There's only one question I have to ask though - and pardon me if I'm being too forward, but...I'm just wondering how the hell you guys can afford a hobby like this? Everywhere I look in my area, a single tandem jump costs a minimum of 250$, and lessons are more along the lines of 1000$+ tax. I'm really into this hobby but my pockets don't agree with me. Any input on this would be greatly appreciated. Oh one more thing. Does anyone know of any good jumping sites around Montreal area? Thanks =) edit: i dunno why the word base jumping keeps linking to another site
