Default Skydiving meet - Anyone interested?

Hello All,

I want to see if anyone else is interested in going skydiving? I have wanted to go for the longest time and no one ever has the stones to come with. So, I wanted to post this up here and see if anyone is as brave (or crazy) as me.

It is $215.00 (credit) or $205.00 (cash) total for your first jump.

Here is the website for the place.

Skydive Jersey Shore

So who's game?

Thanks,
Adam

The location of this place is about 2 hours away (versus 1 hour and 15 minutes from Linwood) and I know that people who are on the fence about doing it would be a little hesistant in making the trip out there.

I will still check it out and see what kinda of group rate we can get if we have enough people that are interested.

The Skydive Jersey Shore says " Our normal limit is 220 lbs, but students are always evaluated on a case by case basis. Call us if you're not sure."

Freefall Adventures out in Williamstown, NJ (about 15 miles outside of Philly) says: 250lbs.

Nah, if you're too big for the parachute you make up for it with how well you can bounce.
