I'm a student myself, but an instructor let me borrow his book which I found was a great read. Parachuting - The Skydiver's Handbook by Dan Poynter

420lb male skydiving. Possible? Yes, but how?

If you have so much money to throw around. Opt for the gastric bypass surgery. Your weight will go down faster than a Thai hooker. But seriously, this guy was over 500 lbs. and now he's going skydiving. http://www.videojug.com/interview/psychological-effects-of-gastric-bypass-2 Definitely a troll...funny none the less. -
All fixed, try the new one

Hey Skymama, How do you know she has a good "tunnel" and is that what the kids are calling it now days? Oh wow...THAT tunnel.. Well that tunnel isn't very large, in fact there's only room for one. Forget 2-way's and 3-way's, and team training certainly isn't an option. Not to mention it's invite only and the guest list has been full for the past 2 years.

Long time reader, first time poster... My name is Chris, I'm very new to the sport. My girlfriend and I had both wanted to start skydiving since we started dating over 2 years ago. Initially we were going to do a tandem together to celebrate her birthday on June 27th, but after some research we both opted for the AFF course instead. A month later, here we are -- AFF course complete, over 30 minutes of tunnel time each, and we're both addicted beyond belief. I try to get to the tunnel in Hollywood at least once a week, and now I'll be doing 2-3 Solo's every Friday until I get the A license. I've been jumping at Elsinore so far, but I'm excited to have many DZ's within arms reach in the So. Cal area. A huge thanks to everyone at the 'Snore for being as awesome as they are. I couldn't have come this far without the awesome help from so many instructors there... Lelo, Jose, Bob, Damien, Aaron, Michael to name a few. It's truly a pleasure to be a part of such an awesome community filled with (without a doubt) the happiest people alive. I'm looking forward to siphoning through the wisdom and BS these boards will definitely provide...and maybe I'll contribute a tad bit myself.

Holding the toggles in a certain fashion would render the parachute inoperable.
