I'm not really an extreme sports person but skydiving's something I've kinda wanted to try for a few years now (was gonna do it when I was about 16 but the day got cancelled unfortunately).I've just no idea what to do, where to go, costs, etc? Got a friend who I might be able to drag along too! Any advice appriciated!  |

A static line is a good full days training but you jump on your own from about 3000ft with line attached to the aircraft that pulls your chute for you. Or there's AFF where you do about half a days training you jump from about 15000ft free fall with 2 instructors free falling with you and you pull your own chute. |
