That’s right… A perfectly good airplane and we’re jumping out of it!!!
We’re going Skydiving at Skydive Dallas… Wanna Go With Us?
I first mentioned this adventure last September in the post You’ll Be Seeing Less of Me In The Next Couple of Months – Accountability May Be Needed!!!
Skydive Dallas is located in Whitewright, TX and is the premier skydiving center in North Texas. We are going to jump tandem and are scheduled for Saturday March 22nd at 11:00 am.
There are a few requirements that must be met in order to jump:
- You must be at least 18 years of age to skydive . Skydive Dallas requires you to bring a valid photo ID with you on the day of the jump. No ID, no jump. No exceptions
- You must weigh less than 220 lbs for a Tandem Skydive. There is a $20 additional charge for tandem students over 200 pounds.
- You must weigh less than 220 lbs for a Solo First Jump
- Although skydivers are a fun-loving community, safety is always our first concern. For this reason, Skydive Dallas cannot allow anyone to skydive who has any alcohol or other judgment-clouding medications in their system.
- For safety reasons Skydive Dallas does not allow you to jump in sandals, boots, or shoes with heels. Wear a pair of sneakers or sport shoes
- Although this isn’t a requirement per se, Skydive Dallas strongly suggests that you wear comfortable clothing appropriate for the current weather conditions. Keep in mind that it can be quite a bit colder at 13,500 feet than it is at Ground Level!
