if you just need a fix...bridge day 2009.

head back to moab, that place is great, especially for beginners - those rocks are really soft.

haha he

what have you been doing between 2005 and now ? how much skydving have you done since ? How much speedflying/paragliding ? Who was "the guy" who took you to your first jump in Moab ?

is your name Johan ?
what are the chances that you are not a troll ?

skydiving

you are so cynical! : )

I fail to grasp the one word answer to my multitude of questions. If one wants help, he must be willing to exert at least SOME effort.

I do concurr that the rocks in moab are quite soft. And people have successfully jumped them with daisy chained canopies. Afterall - it's BASE jumping - what can possibly go wrong ?

Since you asked for a recommendation, not an inquisition, although I cannot give you a recommendation I have posted some links to North America First Jump Courses.

You can read more about First Jump Courses in the Articles section, along with "Getting into BASE".

Two of them have been recommended by littlestranger and Moline.

Ultimately it's up to you to do the research and decide which course is best for you.

I love the internet - with a little reading anyone can be an expert.

if you suspect a troll, don't feed it.
let it be.
why add to the drama?

someone will typically provide the obvious answers, as happened in this case. done. move on. nothing to see.

i agree.

thanks tizzylish!

dont know what we'd do without ya.
glad to see youre sticking to your usual cutandpaste style.

Ha. I was going to comment on the exact same thing, but I didn't want to be "that guy" that got capped on for being the only one always pointing it out...
