Information For Skydiving Gift?

Remember to hire the parachute, i won't be making that mistake again...no seriously i won't. I'm dead :(

get him a static line course NOT a tandam. if he wants to carry on in the sport, a tandam is a waste of money! look up "Active skydiveing" if you are in the uk

check the yellow pages, skydiving places near you and it will gin=ve you an answer for all the locals... IDK how much is it in europe, in US its $180-280 depend on a place you go to, day of the week, if they run any specials at this time, etc... if you want a video its another $100-$120...

WHERE are you? Do an online search for skydiving in your area. Check with the smaller airports. Jumpers tend to use the smaller airports due to the need for many take offs and landings and the need for open areas away from other air traffic for the jumpers. It used to be that you had to (in the US) go through a ground school where you learned to pack your parachute then go through at least five static line jumps and prove that you could pull the rip cord before being allowed to jump on your own. If he wants to do the full thing, he will need to do that still. However, in the last 15 years or so, skydiving schools have made tandem jumps available. This is a no skill jump while wearing a two person harness so that the instructor is strapped to your back and completely controls the parachute. not as cool as jumping by yourself but a lot less expensive than going through the classes prior to doing the first static line jump.
