[quote="con Brio":2fb0c]Tomorrow, I will be at the Winnipeg Skydiving centre for my 5hrs of ground school training at 9am. Then the actual jump.... Has anyone here gone through this? I'm getting more antsy as tomorrow approaches. I rented the first 4 parts of BoB from Rogers vid to see how they trained for the jump.... even Cpt Sobel was squemish on his first jump![/quote:2fb0c]

i hope your parachute falls off your back and you hit the ground eek:

I've thought about learning to sky dive, but tell me about packing your own chute.

Is it hard to fold up and hard to remember. I think that would be the scariest thing of all, talking yourself into thinking that you made a mistake folding your chute.
