Hey guys, just saw a story on 60 minutes about BASE jumping, and it really makes me want to go skydiving again, just thought id see if anyone else wants to go (its cheaper the more people that go). I was thinking of going in a couple of weeks on a saturday or sunday when im not working.

As far as cost goes, last time i went in a group of 5, it cost $250ish for the jump plus $90 for the video (damn expensive video, but ya gotta get the video of your first jump)

So yeah, just looking for EOI at the moment, and ill make a few calls during the week sometime

I did my first jump about 2 months ago and I'm doing my second in two weeks time.

I would recommend that everyone should do it at least once, it is probably the coolest thing I have done!

after this jump I'll be sweet for the course and my first solo jump - that should be duckin scary! gets a fair bit cheaper one you have your solo licence - jump for about $30 if you have your own chute.

Go do it!

wow thats really cheap! how much would it cost to buy a chute?

i'd rather use one thats provided by the proffesionals, i hardly trust myself to put a shirt on the right way, let alone pack the only thing stopping me from hitting the ground at a 200kms/ph

Not trying to put anyone off, but driving back from Sydney a month ago, driving past that skydiving place just outside of Sydney on the highway there were a heap of peeps doing the drop. The scary thing was we saw one person whose 'chute wouldn't open properly really close to the highway. They swung over to the side and landed just out of view, but they hit the ground pretty hard. Chute never opened properly.
