@mat_kelcey wow! awesome

@pbrane have you been skydiving? it's HEAPS of fun!

@mat_kelcey I trained for doing accelerated free-fall (to skip past tandem but avoid doing the too-short free-fall of static line), but then weather interfered with my actual first jump... and then I haven't got back to actually follow up in the years since!

I still want to do it someday. Looks like a blast.

@pbrane yeah, that's the way to do it. still haven't done a tandem. currency is HUGE so would recommend taking a week off and living on a dropzone to crank out as many as possible in a short time. makes a mammoth difference.

@mat_kelcey they have some good-ish drop zones around here - some are pretty gorgeous because you can drop at roughly the height of Ranier's summit (14k') and watch it as you go down. Trick is finding windows of time without a lot of cloud cover... which is most just "August" around here :)

@pbrane your best bet would probably just be a week in california :)
