Ground Crew ?
 
Just curious what it takes for a local BASE jumper to include you as part of the ground crew. I'm obviously under qualified to even consider a jump but would be more than willing to go ahead and start ground crewing for a local jumper and learning the ropes while I up my skydive numbers. Any jumpers in south florida area that need a super newbie crew person PM me, I'm unemployed so I'm pretty much free all the time and just looking to learn as much as possible......

They have to like you. Seriously.

Being reliable and steady is always a plus.

You also have to realize you are there and face legal rammifications. You also need to handle shit if things hit the fan. Learning some first aid would be very beneficial.
